On January 20, 2026 By masterkenpodragon In Ed Parker American Kenpo, Techniques and Forms

CAPTURING THE STORM (FRONT- Right Step Through Overhead Club Attack)

BASE TECHNIQUE

1. With your left foot, step toward 11:00 to form a horse stance facing 1:30. Simultaneously deliver an upward cross-hand block (right over left) against the opponent’s right wrist.
2. Immediately grab the opponent’s right wrist both hands.
3. While still holding onto the opponent’s right wrist, guide the opponent’s right arm downward in a clockwise motion to deliver a club strike to his right knee as you pivot counterclockwise to form a left forward bow stance. Continue to circle his arm clockwise as you step toward 10:30 with your right foot to form a right neutral bow stance.
4. Continue to grab the opponent’s right wrist with your left hand as your right hand grabs the free end of the weapon (palm down and thumb toward you).
5. Immediately slide your left foot counterclockwise toward 10:30 to form a right neutral bow stance facing 4:30. Without breaking the flow of your action, pull the opponent’s twist the opponent’s right arm and pull it toward your left hip as you loop your right arm counterclockwise to deliver a right downward club strike to the back of the opponent’s right elbow.
6. Execute a right front crossover and double cover out toward 12:00.

EXTENSION

6. Contour up the opponent’s right arm to deliver a forward right club strike to the back of the opponent’s head. Continue this clockwise circle to deliver a low right inward club strike to his right kneecap.
7. Reverse the direction of the club to begin a counterclockwise circle as you deliver a low right outward club strike to the back of the opponent’s right knee. Immediately follow with a left front crossover sweep kick to the back of his right leg as you simultaneously deliver a right inward overhead looping club strike to the bridge of the opponent’s nose. Plant your left foot forward to form a left front twist stance as you simultaneously deliver a left outward downward heel palm strike to his groin.
8. Pivot clockwise and form a right neutral bow stance facing 10:30 to deliver a right outward downward diagonal elbow strike to the opponent’s right kidney.
9. Immediately execute a right reverse step through to deliver a right stiff-leg sweep toward 4:30 to buckle the back of the opponent’s right leg as your right arm begins a counterclockwise orbit. Step toward 7:00 with your left foot (gauging leg) and deliver a right inward downward diagonal club strike to his head.
10. Execute a right front crossover toward 10:30 to form a right front rotating twist stance as you deliver a right outward downward diagonal club strike to the opponent’s head or shoulder.
11. Step out with your left foot and cover toward 7:30.
