3. To SHAKE (TUN) (Figs. 138-145)
FORM: With your left foot, step obliquely left until your right leg is
straight. Simultaneously, spear obliquely right with your right
arm, palm up and screwed, while your left hand protects your
groin and your left foot toes out. Now, take your right foot on its
toes in front of your left as your left arm goes up, palm up, to
where your right arm rests on the inner bend of your left elbow.
Pull both hands down and outside of your right foot and, pushing
off your left foot, push right obliquely with both hands.
FUNCTION: Your opponent tries a left. Block from inside with your
right as your left foot goes obliquely forward to the left. As your
right foot comes forward on its toes, swing your left arm upward
to lock-strike his left elbow. Turning your hands over and grasping
his arm, pull him toward your right foot. Then, step forward with
your right foot and push him with both hands.
