(At the same time, your left hand should be checking at solar plexus level as a precautionary check against any possible action.) Note: This block will expose the width of your attacker’s body (centerline).
3. Immediately slide your right foot back to a transitional cat stance. Execute a right front snap kick to your attacker’s groin. [This will cause your attacker to bend forward at the waist.]
4. Plant your right foot to 12 o’clock into a right neutral bow, checking off your attacker’s right knee, as you simultaneously execute a right outward handsword to the right side of the attacker’s neck.

Be sure to have your left hand check at your solar plexus during your block. (Your opponent’s body should turn slightly to the left when your block is properly executed. Your block should, additionally, turn your opponent’s width, and cause injury to his leg.)
2. Without hesitation, and while standing in a right neutral bow, shuffle forward “with” a left sliding check down and onto your opponent’s right elbow. (Make sure your left hand checks your opponent’s forward momentum as well as the width of his upper body.) At the same time, your right hand and arm continue to circle, and will reorbit (just as you conclude your forward shuffle ) into an inward horizontal elbow strike to your opponent’s face. The body momentum obtained from your shuffle, coupled with the forward momentum of your opponent’s reaction, not only adds to the effects of borrowed force, but thoroughly checks your opponent’s depth zone as well. (The effects of both actions should cause your opponent’s head to snap back and possibly have your opponent drop to the ground.)

(This action should cause your opponent to bend forward at the waist, and possibly release his grasp.)
