Three-Steps are a series of choreographed attack and counter techniques. As a partner drill, one partner will attack with three upper-target punches while the opposing partner defends with three blocks and then a counter attack using various techniques, e.g. hand, foot, and locks. Each belt level through brown belt has 3 different three-steps that must be mastered, each incorporating various types of blocks and counters. ALL TECHNIQUES ARE NON-CONTACT. Speed, power, balance, accuracy and focus (intensity) as always are emphasized but this time constrained by the need for complete control of the techniques to ensure the safety of training partners. Three-Steps may also be done against kicks.
