Reprimanding the Bears     (Front: Right punch & Rear: Bear hug, arms pinned, Two Men)

1.  While Standing Naturally, opponent No. 2 (rear opponent) applies a rear Bear Hug with your arms pinned, while opponent No. 1 prepares to punch you from the front.  As opponent No. 1 delivers a right punch toward your face, get out of the Line of Attack by having your left foot step toward 9 o’clock into a wide horse stance (facing 12 o’clock).  Simultaneous with this action have your left hand pin the hands of opponent No. 2 , who is applying a rear Bear Hug - arms pinned.  The moment your left foot settles into your wide horse stance, execute a right front thrusting ball kick to the groin of opponent No. 1 while simultaneously executing a right back hammerfist to the groin of opponent No. 2.  (Opponent No. 1 should bend over as well as be driven back.)

2.  From the Point of Contact of your right kick, have your right foot plant back and toward 7:30 to the inside of opponent No. 2’s left leg.  Immediately convert your plant into a right reverse bow to purposely buckle opponent No. 2’s left leg.  Simultaneous with your buckle, execute a right downward heel palm strike (which converts into a squeeze) to the groin of opponent No. 2.  (Opponent No. 2 should release his grip, as well as bend forward at the waist.)

3.  Execute a right over-the-shoulder back knuckle strike to the face of opponent No. 2, as you left hand continues to check his hands.  (Your opponent’s head should slightly snap back.)

4.  Immediately have your right arm circle counterclockwise, so that it travels up, around, and to the right side of opponent No. 2’s neck.  Likewise have your left hand circle clockwise (over your right shoulder) so it travels up, around, and to the left side of his neck.  As both of your hands meet on the back of opponent No. 2’s neck, grab, pull, and force his head down while simultaneously delivering a right knee kick to his face.  The two Opposing Forces should add to your Borrowed Force.  (This should daze opponent No. 2.)

5.  From the Point of Contact of your right knee kick, step into a right front crossover and immediately execute a left knife-edge kick to the lower abdomen of opponent No. 1, who is still positioned at 12 o’clock.  (Opponent No. 1 should bend forward at the waist, as well as be forced back.)

6.  From the Point of Contact of your left kick plant your left foot toward 12 o’clock into a transitional left neutral bow.

7.  Without any loss to your forward momentum, execute a right rear crossover while striking with a left outward back knuckle strike to the head of opponent No. 1 as you settle into a right rear twist stance.  (This should daze opponent No. 1.)

8.  From your right rear twist stance, execute a right thrusting ball kick to the sternum of opponent No. 2.  (Opponent No. 2 should move back.)

9.  From the Point of Contact of your right kick, execute a right rear crossover followed by a left back thrusting heel kick to the stomach of opponent No. 1.  (This should drive opponent No. 1 away.)

10.  From the Point of Contact of your left kick, execute a left front crossover and double cover out toward 9 o’clock, making sure that you position yourself Mid-Way Point between your two opponents.
