Reverse

Many times, you will hear the term reverse used in describing a technique. Reverse does not mean the same thing in every usage. It has four definitions depending on its usage. It may mean:

• The opposite side of an attacking weapon, such as reverse knife hand or reverse ridge hand.
• The inverted version of an attacking weapon. For example, in a reverse knife hand, the hand is inverted and the attack is made in the opposite direction.
• A trailing arm attack, such as a reverse punch.
• Moving in opposite direction, such as reverse turning kick or reverse hooking kick.
