Compulsory Two-Step Sparring

Description:

Two-step sparring is an extension of one-step sparring. The flow of compulsory two-step sparring is as follows:
  1. The attacker steps forward with the first attack. The defender reacts.
  2. The attacker steps forward with the second attack, which is identical to the one-step sparring attack. The defender reacts.
  3. The defender does the prescribed counter-attack.
The protocol remains the same as one-step compulsories. As with the one-step routines, students are expected to perform these compulsories on both the left and right. The following routines are written for the right side.

Routine One:

First Attack Left L-stance, front kick
First Block Step back into a right walking stance, low block with the outer forearm
Second Attack Right walking stance, center section punch
Second Block Step back into a right L-stance, middle block with inner forearm
Counter Attack Move the right leg into a sitting stance 45° offset from your opponent, right center section punch

Notes: The force of your punch should be perpendicular to the imaginary line connecting your opponent's feet.

Routine Two:

First Attack Left L-stance, front kick
First Block Step back into a right walking stance, low block with the outer forearm
Second Attack Right walking stance, center section punch
Second Block Step back into a right L-stance, middle block with inner forearm

First Block Step back into a right walking stance, low block with the outer forearm
Second Attack Right walking stance, center section punch

Second Attack Right walking stance, center section punch
