Question 8

How-to Block Straight Punches

Answer 8

Block with hand that is on *same* side of the body, using (what Bu Kwan Ja Nim Brad calls the “hello kitty …swat” –on an angle, fast and firm)

Why? So you don’t open yourself up to their other hand striking you.

Make sure you’re in a fighting stance (body angled toward opponent) …don’t leave yourself wide-open.

Also you need to be able to move around during this exercise …relax and move…
