Crossdownward Block and then Multiple Counter Attacks

http://youtu.be/NqJ1NWQfCpY

My lead arm performs a Crossdownward Block to guard my solar plexus from a punch to the body. Then I pause (or block again with the same arm). Only then do I perform three counter punches (at different heights). I finish with a Front Snap Kick at the groin height before resetting in the Bow.

The pause between the initial block and the initial counter attack is deliberate. There are other tactics that can be used on this attack but that is for another time. One of the reasons I pause in this drill is so that I can block again if necessary.

It is very important to drill this rhythm to the point that I can perform it without thinking and yet every strike is strong and focused.

Without prejudice
