CROSSING STEP

This is a back-step-and-twist maneuver that moves you out of an attack’s range. It also gives you added safety and striking power from the hip twist. The crossing step is best employed against long-reaching horizontal strikes, as it provides added distance between the opponent’s weapon and your midsection. Begin facing your partner in medium range, right leg forward with your partner’s stick extended horizontally in range to strike you. The weapon is an indicator of the proper distance you must cover. Take a step back with your left leg into long range. Immediately slide your front leg behind the rear leg with a sharp rotating hip action, thus crossing your legs. Next, unwind your hips and spring forward from your left foot, like a sprinter. End back in the exact medium range position from which you began. Control your steps and twists to control your range.
