The Straight

The Straight

The Straight Right, as it’s called, isn’t thrown often because it has potential to swing you off balance.

Throw it like you would thrust s spear, you would jab it through the target from distance and without being taken of balance. This is a powerful symbol to work with.

Generally speaking you keep it tight, and pivot the body into the strike so that the arm is the last to actually extend. This ensures balance.

Steve Morris recommends turning the body so that you are punching outwards, like the extension of a wing. another helpful analogy.
