18. DEFLECTION AND REVERSE STRIKE (Figs. 107-110)
By now you should be able to look at the function and establish the
solo exercise. With your feet on a line and your knees bent, do ex-
actly what is shown in the function photos (i.e., photos that show
the technique as used against an opponent), but without moving
your feet. All you need to remember is (1) circle and (2) use your
body, not your arms. The right hand is obscured in the final picture:
it has turned over, the elbow is up, fingers down and open, and it
strikes your opponent just below his navel.
