Do San moves 13 - 16 are; Wedging block, kick double punch. Always taught as a break on a hold. Fine. But.

Grab your opponent by the collar in a cross hand grab and pull the hands apart as if you were performing the 'block'. Note how he starts to choke. As you do the 'block' pull in and cock your knee for the front kick. Bang, knee to the chest driving out the breath (what's left anyway). Snap out the kick. It can only go one way and that's low level, straight into their knee points. Punch once and you'll actually turn them so that they're facing away from you. Finish how you will. I actually tend to ignore the double punch as hopefully the previous techniques will have worked!

I love performing this technique in the pattern and imagining the above application.
