[Source:] [Isshin-Ryu Black Belt]

[Rating:] Basic

Part-1 Attacker: Attacker Front Kicks

Part-2 Defender: Trap Foot, Achilles’s lock, and Kick Support Leg

• Trap the attacker’s kicking leg.
• Pull backwards breaking the attacker’s balance.
• Place the opponent in a Achilles tendon lock.
• Use the attacker for balance and Side kick the attacker’s knee on the supporting leg.

Note: An alternate kick is a 45˚degree blade kick to the groin or inside of the leg. This too has devastating results without the severe trauma of the strike to the knee. The 45˚degree blade kick can be used to open up an opponent’s stance. This opens him/her up for a throw.
