Question 136: Toi-gye

Page 1 of 3

I am confused about the function of the moves 32, 34, 35 and 36 which are called either "scoop blocks" or walking Stance Forearm Circular Block. One technique to do it is to bend down on the back leg like you are blocking a kick and redirecting the kick. Another technique is I have seen is to scoop it with the blocking hand.Is the function of this move to block a low kick or to block a punch? Do you need to bend down on the back leg to perform it correctly?
