- Advance/drive hastily, strike forcefully
- Evade the attack (and nullify its force), counter-strike from the side
- Couple force (hardness, attack) with flexibility (soft, defence, evade)
- Amplification of force with torque (twisting/shaking the body from feet to hip to hand)
- Swallow (hold down) the shoulders, release the shoulder blades
- Alignment of the 4 golden points (hand, eye, hip, knee)
- Feet rooted in the ground (deep, steadfast stances)
- Amplification of force with bi-directional/counter-directional movements (e.g. pulling the opponent towards you while forcing a strike)
- Virtual simulation (visualise the outcome)
