up with a left roundhouse punch. Execute a crash entry - Your right hand cups
the back of your head and your left hand grabs your right wrist forming a frame
to protect the right side of your head. Push off your rear foot and step
forward with the right foot into your opponent. Turn your hips and shoulders counter clockwise into the direction of the incoming punch. The object is you want to crash into the opponent's chest with your left elbow and his punching arm crashes into your right elbow.

off of his heels. Pivot on your feet counter – clockwise. The toes of both feet
should be pointing toward 6 o’clock. 8.) Step your left foot back next to your
