One participant slowly strikes a straight line towards their partner's forehead. The partner evades by taking a long step backwards. The movement impulse is created by a powerful kick backwards with the front foot, at the same time the back foot is moved back significantly and finally the front foot is pulled in. After the backward step, make sure that the distance between the feet matches the starting position again.
Exercise 1a:
Participant A: left/right punch - step backwards / participant B: 2x block left/right - straight -> constant role reversal
Exercise 1b:
Participant A: analogue 1a plus straight / participant B: analogue 1a plus step backwards -> constant role reversal
Variant:
The groups of 2 are constantly in motion (shifting in the basic position forwards/backwards, left/right). On the command "top" from the leader, the combination (exercise 1a/1b) is performed.
