Encounter with Danger      (Front: Two-hand push)

1.  While Standing Naturally, and facing your opponent, he pushes you to the ground, forcing you on your back toward 6 o’clock. 

2.  While on your back, and as your opponent lunges toward you, deliver a left vertical knife-edge kick to your opponent’s groin (toward 12 o’clock).  (Your opponent should bend forward at the waist.)

3.  Immediately flip your body to your left as you simultaneously execute a right knife-edge kick under your opponent’s jaw.  (This should drive your opponent’s head back.)

4.  As you roll to your left, onto your stomach, facing 6 o’clock, bring your arms under your body and push yourself back toward your opponent.  As you push yourself into action, deliver a left back thrusting heel kick to your opponent’s stomach, while on your right knee.  (This kick should drive your opponent’s back.)

5.  While still on your right knee plant your left foot toward 12 o’clock, rise and pivot counterclockwise into a left neutral bow facing 12 o’clock.

6.  Immediately execute a right thrusting ball kick to your opponents groin.  While planting your right foot forward deliver a right vertical punch to your opponents sternum.

7.  Execute a left front crossover into a left front twist stance while delivering a right back knuckle strike to your opponent’s right temple.

8.  Pivot clockwise into a left neutral bow as you execute a left vertical punch to your opponent’s solar plexus and then chamber your left clenched fist alongside of your right shoulder as your right hand positionally checks low.

9.  Immediately execute a right front crossover into a right front twist stance while executing a left back knuckle strike to your opponents left temple.  Your right hand remains checking low.

10.  Pivot counterclockwise into a right neutral bow as your left hand covers your opponent’s eyes and your right hand delivers a right inward looping overhead punch to the jaw of your opponent.

11.  Continue to pivot counterclockwise (so that your upper body now faces 6 o’clock) and drop into a left close kneel stance.  Without disrupting the flow of your Body Rotation execute a right stiff leg kick between his legs and up to his groin.

12.  From the contact position of your right kick execute a right front crossover, and cover out twice toward 6 o’clock.
