Defense against a same-side wrist grab
- Inside ridgehand strike to the opponent's jaw with your free, opposite-side hand. Sharply pull your grabbed hand to your hip via reciprocal action.
- If your hand breaks free of the opponent’s grip, grab their same side wrist.
- If not, proceed anyway -- whenever you grab someone, or they grab you, each person will controls the other person’s wrist either way.
- Palmheel strike to the chest and reap.
- The chest strike provides additional torque, for a more powerful reap. When confronted, replace the chest press with a hammerfist strike to the same-side collarbone. The chest press is only for training in the dōjō to prevent from injuring your partner.
- Retain control of the opponent’s arm. Kneel with a reverse punch to the ribs, or apply a joint lock, depending on what the situation requires.
