This is the first form where students of our UKKD schools synthesize what they know into a workable self-defense form. The criteria for the form are five techniques and a minimum of fifteen basics (strikes, kicks, or blocks.) It is often a linear form, meaning that it should generally move towards 12 o'clock.

 The Five Attackers

1. Straight Left Step-Through Punch
2. Straight Left Hand Lapel Grab
3. Left Step-Through Roundhouse Punch
4. Right Step-Through Overhead Club
5. Left Thrusting Front Kick

1. Straight Left Step-Through Punch

1. Step forward (12 o'clock) with right foot while doing a right inward block to the inside of the attackers arm (L-6).
2. Simultaneously executing a left hammer fist to the inside of your opponents left leg (SP-11) with a forward bow.
    - Maintain contact with right hand while looping the left hand up to grab the attackers left wrist.
3. Do a right forearm strike across you opponents elbow (TW-11) while switching into a left forward bow (facing 6 o'clock).
4. Upon breaking the attackers arm, do an outward elbow strike to their temple (TW-23).
5. Loop your hand around the back of your opponent's neck, pulling them into a knee to the solar plexus (CO-3).
6. Push away toward 11:00 o'clock and end in left neutral bow.

1. Pin arm with left hand (LI-3 or LI-4), or slap-check.
2. Step toward 12 o'clock into a right neutral bow while doing a forearm strike to the apex of the bicep (H-2).
3. Strike through the bicep then perform a right outward elbow strike just above the check bone, even with the ear hole (S-7).
4. After elbowing them in the head, grab their right shoulder and step back into a zen stance facing 9:00.
5. While stepping back and pulling with the right hand to turn your opponent's back to you, grab their hair and do an anchored elbow behind their left shoulder to pull them backwards (toward 6:00).
6. As they are falling backwards, do a right hammerfist to the middle of their sternum while in a right neutral stance facing 9:00.
7. Step to 9:00 with the left and push them away, landing in a right neutral bow.

1. Step to 11:00 with the left foot and execute an inward parry with your left hand immediately followed by an extended outward block (L-7) (windmill block).
2. Execute a right front snap kick to the groin.
3. Before dropping the foot, grab the back of their head (GB-20) and pull it down.
4. As you pull their head down, pivot toward 9:00 and do an upward heal kick to the base of the attackers nose.
5. Immediately chamber the right leg and do a sidekick to the side of the right side of their ribs, even with the xyphoid process (S-18), landing in a right neutral bow.

1. Step to 11:00 with the left foot into a left neutral bow and do a windmill block to parry the club to the right, not stopping its downward motion.
2. As the club is being parried downward with the right hand, grab the attackers right wrist and guide it into a trusting knee strike to attackers right elbow (TW-11), this will allow me to grab the club with my right hand.
3. Once grabbing the club with the right hand (using a bottom hand grip) and established your base, strike the attacker in the right temple (GB-8, or TW-23).
4. In a figure-eight motion back across the attackers body, do a front crossover as you strike your opponent in the kidney (or SP-21, just above the floating ribs).
5. In another figure-eight motion, step toward 12 o'clock into a left neutral bow and strike the attacker in the temple (as you utilize marriage-of-gravity).

1. From a left neutral bow, do a downward block with the left hand, parrying the attackers leg to the left of your body.
    - This will put your opponents back facing you as you step to 12:00 with the right foot into a right neutral bow.
2. Step the right foot between the attackers legs and while circling your left blocking arm up into a ridgehand.
3. With the left ridgehand, pull the attacker tight to your chest (choking them).
4. Upon choking them, do a right sandwiching palm strike to the attackers temple (GB-8).
5. Rack your (right hand) fingers across their face.
6. With your right hand, place two-finger into the notch between the clavicles and slide your left foot back into a right neutral bow facing 9:00.
7. As soon as you've gotten to the right neutral bow while putting pressure on the trachea, drive your right hip into them (lower than theirs), into a reverse bow facing 3:00, forcing them to the ground.

Pull to a horse stance and salute.
