Is that the exact order and wording from II 5?
Well it seems to me that that is exactly what you want to do. At orange you shoudn't be doing Short Form 1 like you did at your yellow belt test, it should be even better. At purple it should be better still. Make sense?
How many people actually require something like that at your schools?

I agree with you Elfan.
You couldn't possible tell a yellow belt to extract all those teachings at first. They have enough with the foot-block coordination, changing directions and then imagining someone punching them to request more of thems.
But I must tell that I never thought of short one as exhaustive as you made look into it. And at first, with the cat stance and so, I even thought you were talking af long one. So it's great to read those wondedrful msg of yours.

The owner of my school is fond of saying that he considers Short One to be one of the most challenging forms. And all of those who conduct tests do, indeed, expect progressively better form while executing Short 1 as you progress up the chart.

While practicing short form 1 or any other form for that matter...try executing the form in reverse. First move step back with your left foot into a left neutral bow facing six o'clock as you simultaneously execute a right inward block followed by a left downward block creating double factoring as your right fist returns to chamber at your right hip utilizing torque in its return motion...etc. What does this teach? What about using the defensive (blocks) moves as offensive (strikes) moves? ie:the downward block could be used as a hammerfist the right inward block could be used as first a check or as a heelpalm claw or a simple punch. This all comes back to the question , when is a block a block and a punch a punch? All defensive moves can compound to offensive and vice versa

and that's still a great question-- but i'd take it step further and ask do you feel a block HAS the same inherent components of a strike or do you feel there is a significant difference - is intent truly all that makes one one thing or changes it to the other or are there physical principles that apply mostly to one and not the other.
I've heard opposing views in the past-- but i'd be interested in hearing what folks here think.

AKKI form one is similiar to a combined short form 1 and long form 1 sort of.
It contains various contact manipulation techniques and weapon disarms, but like all good kenpo they tend to hide in plain sight :shrug:

It is, essentially, perception Dennis. Like mind set ... If my mind set is that you are tougher than me, then every time we fight ... You are going to win, by definition.
Block/strike is the same way... If you look at a block as simply a block, then in your paradigm, that is all it will ever be. If you look at a block as an opportunity to strike ... Ahhhh .... Then it takes on a completely different significance. Capishe?
