Head Block (Jodan-uke)
The face breaks like fine China
The bones of the arm make a wall in front
of the face like a boxer uses his gloves
Letter X in front of the face
Hand from the pocket moves to the face
(through half of the letter X)
Blocking arm is always on the outside
(this avoids blooding your own nose!)
Head block finishes on a slant like a mountain
The two hands work together
Hand in pocket elbow straight back
Arigato, Sensei Judy
