Mittsu-Mae also emphasizes deceptive footwork and the synchronization of [[Ibuki|breathing and technique]].

 Movements 9-11 can describe a defense against the classic “1-2” jab-cross combination. You deflect a left jab with a [[Rising block|rising block]], then immediately deflect the opponent’s right punch with a [[Cross-body block|cross-body block]], and kicking their [[Kyūsho#Groin|genitals]] while they are preoccupied with trying to hit you. As the opponent doubles-over with pain, capitalize upon their forward momentum, breaking their left [[Kyūsho#Collarbone|collarbone]] with a [[Hassō-shutō_uchi|hassō-shutō]].
-Movement 12 is a [[Manipulations_and_Takedowns|takedown]], a variant of [[Kokyūhō|kokyūhō]]. You step behind the fallen attacker, and use the [[Downward-fist block|downward-fist block]] to sweep them over your knee.

You step behind the injured attacker, and use the [[Downward-fist block|downward-fist block]] to sweep them over your knee. Movement 13 can be thought of as a repeating the [[Manipulations_and_Takedowns|takedown]] of Movement 12, if the attacker tries to get back up. Alternately, this move can be interpreted as a low-level [[Hammerfist_strike#Outside_hammerfist_strike|outside hammerfist strike]] to their [[Kyūsho#Temples|temple]] as they try to get up.

+Alternately, Movement 12 could be blocking another opponent's kick, while Movement 13 knocks them down with a [[Kokyūhō|kokyūhō]] variant.
 Movements 14-15 describe how to defend against a kick from the rear. Immediately upon noticing the attacker, spin around and deflect their kick and counterpunch, stepping forward to topple the opponent while they are off-balanced from failing to rechamber their kick.

 The [[Front stance|front stance]] in Movement 17 needs to be extra low for the Mitsu-Mae takedown to work; your [[Center|center]] needs to be below your opponent’s [[Center|center]]. To accomplish this, you need to be in a longer-than-normal [[Front stance|front stance]] , and you may need to slide your front foot out further to accommodate this.
-Typically, we use the term “[[Kyūsho#Groin|groin]]” as a polite way to refer to testicles, since involuntary genital mutilation is frowned upon by many soccer moms, school administrators, etc. However, Movement 17 of this [[Kata|kata] is the exception to the rule; we are legitimately attacking the muscles inside the top of the thigh.

-Movements 16-18 provide a second, more brutal defense against a kick from behind. Immediately upon noticing the attacker, you spin around and deflect their kick. Then, when they are off-balanced, you can reach out, sink low, and strike the insides of both of their thighs with ridge-hand strikes, giving them Charlie Horses and spreading their legs. Next, you grab the inseam of their pants, and pull their legs out from under them, dumping your opponent onto their back (and possibly, pulling their pants down). This technique is a “Mittsu-Mae Takedown.” The left crescent kick isn’t a kick, ''per se''; it hooks the opponent’s left leg to, turn them over onto their stomach. Finally, you finish the opponent off by stomping their tailbone or lower spine.

-Movements 19-20 is a defense a front choke or two-handed lapel grab. Distract the opponent and weaken their grip by double punching their genitals, then use the blocks to knock their arms aside. Reach behind the opponent’s head with the left hand to pull them into a backhanded smack with the right hand, before pushing them away.
