This class works through power generation from short range using the S-curve as a refinement of the zigzag pattern. Hanshi Juchnik explains how the zigzag stops energy at each point while the S-curve keeps it fluid, demonstrates how striking from a ten-inch, two-inch, or three-inch distance still generates power from the gedan plane, and walks through the planes of motion that allow a practitioner to cut twelve feet of needed distance in half by changing the working plane. The discussion covers hand and leg opposition, blocking through transition, why hips are always in motion, how circular blocking disrupts an opponent's chakra, and why power comes from transition rather than from any single fixed point.
