Section 1 Level 1

Release from single handed choke 

Step 1 — Stance Stay balanced with your feet shoulder‑width apart. Keep your chin tucked and hands ready to react.

Step 2 — C‑Grip on the Attacking Hand Use your thumb and fingers in a “C” shape to grab the attacker’s wrist or hand. The C‑grip gives strong control without relying on finger strength.

Step 3 — Peel the Hand Off Rotate your body slightly and pull the choking/grabbing hand away from your neck. Use your whole body, not just your arm, to break the hold safely.

Step 4 — Palm to the Face (Training‑Safe Contact) Immediately extend your free hand into a palm strike or firm palm‑push to the attacker’s face area. In training, aim for the forehead or cheek to keep it safe. This disrupts their balance and creates space.

Step 5 — Heavy Groin Kick (Training‑Safe Targeting) With the attacker off‑balance, deliver a strong, direct kick to the inner thigh or lower abdomen in training. This simulates the real‑world groin kick while keeping practice safe.

Step 6 — Create Space Step back or angle off to avoid re‑engagement. Keep your hands up and stay aware.

Step 7 — Reset Return to a balanced stance, ready to move, communicate, or disengage.
