front kick defense)
From a natural stance:

- Deliver a right step thru scoop kick to the groin and land forward in a right front twist stance.
- Deliver a left knife-edge kick to the back of the opponent's right knee and cover out.
Questions
- What fundamental rule are you breaking when starting your defense with the right front scoop kick to the groin? What rule are you following with that kick?
- What can be done to ensure that the rule can be broken?
- The front kick/twist stance/side kick combination is done in an earlier Yellow Belt technique. Which one?
