2.- Getting up from the floor forward «number 4» (striking variation)

In this lesson, we’ll learn how to get up in «number 4.»

This name comes from the initial positioning of our legs to begin the technique. It can be performed from either side.

With this type of getting up, we shorten the distance with our attacker. Support and weight are important. With the no-hands variation, we can have greater protection for our face or carry a weapon or object to defend ourselves.
