VARIABLE EXPANSION - (1) The ability to randomly select solutions, or build upon precepts, as a result of having a thorough knowledge of the principles and concepts of the Martial Arts. (2) The number of additional weapons and targets that can stem from a specific point of origin. (3) The ability to expand and expound on the number of alternatives that can stem from significant sequences in a form.These alternatives may be the result of the statement, "To every move, concept, theory, principle, or definition, there is an opposite and a reverseœ."
VERTICAL LEVERAGING - Refers to specific methods using a club on another club, or a club on an opponent's body to fulcrum your action thus giving it greater leverage when it is executed vertically.
WINDSHIELD WIPER PRINCIPLE - This principle normally occurs immediately after an inward or outward heel palm strike is executed. At this point the heel of your palm becomes a pivot point using your opponent's jaw as an axis as your fingers slice clockwise or counterclockwise across your opponent's eyes.
WRAP AROUND - The concept that the body, when maneuvering from one position to another, rotates around a block or strike immediately after its execution. The block or strike, during the maneuver, becomes a rotating axis which then beneficially transforms into a positional check. This concept is quite prevalent when you are performing Kenpo forms.
The term for a punch and an elbow combination on the same move? Residual action, grafted principle, sophisticated move. Is there another term that might be better?
