Things You'll Need:
- Sparring partner or attacker
-
Step 1
Begin by standing naturally with your hands by your sides. Your opponent will immediately take the offensive by grabbing the front of your shirt with his left hand. This is in preparation for a punch to the face with his right hand.
-
Step 2
Place your right hand over your opponent’s left hand, holding it against your chest for the time being. Sidestep to your right as your opponent attempts a punch. Simultaneously lash out with your open left hand to catch your opponent’s right arm along the inside of the elbow.
-
Step 3
Throw the attacker’s right arm out to the side while wrapping the fingers of your right hand around your attacker’s left fist. Turn his left hand outward so the underside of his wrist and forearm is exposed.
-
Step 4
Turn your body to the right so your left shoulder is closest to your opponent. Grasp the inside of your opponent’s left elbow with your left hand, pushing forward and up so the joint of the elbow is pointing upward and raised above the level of his shoulder.
-
Step 5
Turn 90-degrees to the right while dropping down onto your left knee. Twist with your upper body in the same direction. As you do so, guide your opponent’s elbow down and around. Your opponent will be pulled into a backwards fall as you do this, forcing him to release your shirt in the process, ending the technique.
