HAND MOVEMENTS  (MOVIMIENTOS DE LA MANO)

There are five sets of hand movements in the modern system. The use of the hand-hip-action should still be emphasised. Unlike the original system both feet move as the hands move and the sweep actions are performed in pairs, Thus making the whole sequence more multi-purpose and efficient. Furthermore, each count of eight sequence is performed twice, before moving on to the next set.

Hay cinco tipos de movimientos de la mano en el sistema moderno. El uso de la mano del hip-acción todavía debe hacerse hincapié. A diferencia del sistema original de ambos pies se mueven como mover las manos y las acciones de barrido se realizan en parejas, lo que hace toda la secuencia más polivalente y eficaz. Además, cada cuenta de ocho secuencia se realiza dos veces, antes de pasar a la siguiente serie.

         

 

 

  • 1a - Basic centre, sweep down (Shomen-uchi movement)
                       Centro de la base, barrido hacia abajo (Shomen-uchi movimiento)

  • 1b - Basic centre, sweep up (Shomen-ate movement)
                      
    Centro de la base, barrer (Shomen-comió movimiento)

  • 2a - Inside sweep
                       Dentro de barrido

  • 2b - Outside sweep
                       Fuera de barrido

  • 3a - Inside turn
                       A su vez el interior

  • 3b - Outside turn
                       A su vez fuera

  • 4a - Inside sweep (arm/hip turn)
                       Dentro de barrido (brazo / a su vez de la cadera)

  • 4b - Outside sweep (arm/hip turn)
                       Fuera de barrido (brazo / a su vez de la cadera)

  • 5a - Forward major sweep left <anticlockwise>
                       Avanzar barrido principales izquierda <anticlockwise>

  • 5b - Forward major sweep right <clockwise>
                       Adelante <clockwise> importante derecho de barrido

  • 5c - Backward major sweep left
           Con versiones anteriores de barrido de izquierda principales

  • 5d - Backward major sweep right
                       A la derecha hacia atrás barrido principales

 

Starting with the left hand, each set is performed to the count of eight. Start and finish in Basic Front Posture. The movements of the feet should be quick, light and relatively small, ensuring that both feet are fully contacting the mat during pauses. Throughout the movements the feet must maintain a shoulder-width-apart distance and be kept close to the mat; use a gliding or sweeping action. The hands should co-ordinate with the feet and when not being used should rest lightly on the hip with the fingers extended and pointing slightly downwards.
