move toward a part of the target from which
the opponent’s hand is moving away; that is
into an opening rather than a closing line, if it
is to have the best chance of overcoming the
disadvantage of time and distance which it is
always subject. Another excellent moment to
launch an attack is when your opponent is
about preparing an attack. Your opponent’s
hand movement and intention at this moment
will be concentrated more on the attack than
defense.

Progressive indirect attack. The only difference
is that HIA moves toward the hand of your
opponent while PIA moves away from the hand
of your opponent. HIA is stopping the hand of
your opponent. Pinning the hand or arm of
your opponent so that he will be unable to
deliver a blow. HIA is a preventive measure
when attacking with one hand while pinning
your opponent’s hand or arm. HIA is used as
a preventive measure when slipping of
countering. HIA can also be used when an
opponent actually intends to deliver a blow.
