Hey! Everyone, welcome to MartialSkill, I'm Shawn, Today we're going to be work on another Chain Style. This is one is called Millstone Palm Chain Style. This is handed down to our teacher by Sifu Brendai Lai. This is from the 7 Star Praying Mantis System.
So, I'm going to bring up Carlos to help me demonstrate this Chain style. Don't see behind me. So, sequalized chain styles, and this fighting style was characterized by very efficient straight into the point of task, are very well demonstrated, some of the best of Mantis, and so this chain style is very much exemplary of that, and its two versions, they are very effective.
Starts with the Millstone Palm technique. So this named for the first notion which these covering palms. Okay so, with Millstone palm what you're doing is 1, 2, 3m see its like churning the Millstone, that's how we named this.
So, it's 1, 2, put your palms on the top, and then attacking, that third is going to be attack the jaws. So this palm suddenly turns upwards, these are not flat. Okay, so the idea is to cover on top, because you don't know what is happening. So, here, okay, and Carlos is doing a good job by defending that.
What's going to happen next though is, really fun here, which is, I'm going to collect from underneath, and I'm going to pull this straight down as I use my 7 Stars stance along with temple strike to attack him.
Okay, So, I'm basically going to step this up by going to 1 and then 2, and I'm trapping him with my foot at the same time attacking. So, opposite sides of the body.
So again, you start, it doesn't really matter whether I use this offensively or defensively, he could be attacking me, I cover or he could have his hands up like something like this. And then the next is going to be again, I am going to grab and pull this straight down, as I go, attack. So again, we go, 1, 2 and I'm keeping my hand over here his head. This will ideally be a temple strike.
One more time, that's the technique, works beautifully, very simple, very easy to master. Make sure that you get that 7 star stance behind, trap his foot, so he is not going anywhere. It's that as beautiful about the technique. He is crossed up here, he is in a really bad position, and I shoot out an open shot at his temple, or back of his head, wherever I wish.
So, showing this by itself, very simple, like I said, but don't let that for you, it's very effective. So it's slow motions, really, you're going to take a Mantis step, as you go one, that Millstone palm, and over here, you just will be grabbing or collecting from underneath, grabbing pointing straight down, as you move slightly forward, this is going to be straightening, it is going to circle around, if you have temple puncture or round house punch, we also call out the same time.
So it goes 1, 2, and form, you're going to have this here, because you're pulling straight down, even if you don't get that far, it wouldn't matter, this is what is shown, okay.
It's this scissoring of the body, you're going to scissor over again, next, we're going to need to be able scissoring the waist. We see this here, with scissoring our waist, we have it here too, because we are using opposite sides of the body. Left leg is casing, right hand, scissoring on the waist; you get power. So again, it goes, 1, 2.
