STICKING HANDS

Two people face each other as for push hands but with wrists touching.
. You should start to rotate your palms as if
churning butter on a flat plane. The person whose hands are on the
top should attack to the face of the other who should block this attack
outward to either side of his head. The person
who’s hands are underneath should attack to the other’s lower abdomen
who blocks it downward and out to either side.
At no time should the wrists break contact. When this has been practiced
for some time you are then able to change the position of your
palms at will but still keeping contact. So, you might have your right
palm on the top and you wish to move it under. You would use an attack
to the lower abdomen as you do this. At the
same time your partner can block this attack and immediately
re-attack to your face or abdomen. This is the crux of this exercise;
you MUST always re-attack as close to simultaneously as possible
with the attacker’s movement. If you block with the right hand outward,
then slam it back down onto his head or, if your other palm is
closer, use that one. You must take the shortest route to re-attack. If
your partner is able to get in a good solid attack then you do not follow
up as he has defeated you but if you have blocked his attack then
you must re-attack. Then he must block that attack and also
re-attack. This continues until a solid blow has landed. When I say a
solid blow Imean one that if it were for real would knock your opponent
out and not just a light slap to the face etc.
