Q an A

[Kirk]

When doing a simple forward vertical punch to the face, you step
forward and execute the punch before landing your foot, correct?

This is utilizing forward momentum, but is it also marriage of
gravity? You're going forward, yet down .. or does it even play
a part at all?

You can step or you can simply rotate..... it depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Either way you should NOT complete the punch prior to the foot action.... thus making separate movements but rather combine the body, footwork and arm action simultaneously. There are many variations and timings for this type of move, this is just one scenario.

Yes, you are going forward and down but if your punch has reached the target prior to the foot landing then you only have forward momentum not both.

Dear Ladies, gentleman and the rest of you. I cannot say wether or not Mr. Conatser will be online or not for a minimum of another 24 hours. Mr. Conatser is currently in the state of Virginia, which tomorrow I will make a quest to free him from. We should be able to smuggle him back to Arizona by Sunday or so. I will try to get him to sign on and say Howdy some time tomorrow from Casa/Chez Seigel

Ya shouda kept him over there, so that I can free up the Southwest for myself!

No way, he has the SouthWest and I'm working on the east coast. Although, we're not sure we want Texas, we may allow you to keep it. But I would not count on it.....

Club Set # 1, is a little more basic and definition oriented, the 7 is more application oriented.

Mr. Parker added it to 1st Black "around" 1989.

Why in form 6 do we cover so oddly from broken rod to defying the rod? I know it's to show the angles of the x pattern but it's such an odd movement for kenpo. My guess is it's because we haven't cover stepped like this yet.
