Hi! I am Joe Palanzo of the World Wide Kenpo[br]Karate Association in conjunction with Expert

0:00:12.820,0:00:16.750
Village; I want to welcome you today. The[br]technique that was just demonstrated is called

0:00:16.750,0:00:21.160
parting wings and it is a defense against[br]the two hand push out. In other words, when

0:00:21.160,0:00:26.320
the push occurs at the shoulder and I can[br]get my hands on the inside. This is called

0:00:26.320,0:00:33.030
an open ended triangle, and it is actually[br]four spaces that have two sides. The options

0:00:33.030,0:00:39.370
in case his hands are closer together having[br]more leverage to separate or I can go straight

0:00:39.370,0:00:45.149
into the face. So, on the first move, as he[br]drops back I strike here and try to get enough

0:00:45.149,0:00:49.750
space inside the arms as he comes forward,[br]and as his body will continue to come forward

0:00:49.750,0:00:54.870
I need to stop it. So this hand as it travels[br]over here perhaps can hook his eye to divert

0:00:54.870,0:01:00.829
his head, and I stop him with a major move,[br]which is a hand sword coming onto the heart

0:01:00.829,0:01:04.570
or the floating ribs. If you want to bring[br]it from the outside but it will stop him.

0:01:04.570,0:01:08.440
This hand is chambered over here in a defensive[br]posture, and I have changed stances from a

0:01:08.440,0:01:13.430
neutral to four blow to give me some force.[br]I might grab a bit of the armpit here, and

0:01:13.430,0:01:18.150
as I pull I am going to strike him in the[br]throat with a hand sword, and again I have

0:01:18.150,0:01:22.690
chambered by right hand back here in preparation[br]for the next move. This hand is going to go

0:01:22.690,0:01:28.520
down the body as a check and also positional[br]check against his legs as I use a middle finger

0:01:28.520,0:01:34.700
strike to the solar plexus, and this usually[br]penetrates and does the job. So again the

0:01:34.700,0:01:40.340
first four basic moves are separate, stop[br]with a hand sword, chop to the throat, and

0:01:40.340,0:01:45.000
strike to the solar plexus and then cover[br]to a safe position. This is parting wings.
