OUR SELF-DEFENSE MOVES
H O N O R T H R O U G H T H E M A R T I A L A R T S
In all one-step self defense moves, both opponents face each other
in fighting stance with left foot forward.
You will nod to your opponent when you are ready to defend yourself
against your opponent's attack. Your opponent will then step forward
with his right leg and throw a punch with his right hand.
