" How are you doing? My name is Qaeem and on behalf of Expert Village, I’m going to be demonstrating Shorin-Ryu Karate. In Shorin-Ryu Karate, I’m going to be demonstrating the reverse punch low. I just got finished saying the reverse punch high, the reverse punch mid. The reverse punch low is simply is going to be the same thing, however you are focusing more on the lower part of the person’s body, which is pretty much from the navel going down. Generally, we are talking about the groin area. Now once again, in the reverse punch low you are going to start on in the ready position. You are going to go into the X block and you are going to come down into your horse stance. Now the reverse punch low, you are going to come back and you punch it low. It is the same punch, however it all depends on where you are going to put it. Right now, we are aiming directly at the groin. You’re going to start out slow. Once again, in this punch it is the same motion. You don’t want to start and stop your hands at different times but you want them both to be equal. I’m going to show you that from the side. When you get a little bit faster with it, you can pick it up. You’re imagining that you’re attacking someone’s groin, which is directly in front of your groin area. Now that is a reverse punch low and my name is Qaeem on behalf of Expert Village, thank you for watching."
