Cannot load Quicktime movie.

Thrust to the Rear

Begin in left hanmi with the left hand holding the jo in front of the left foot. Hinge the jo with your left hand so that the top moves forwards and the bottom moves to the rear. Grab the top of the jo with your right hand, thumb upwards. Lift the jo placing it along the underside of your left forearm while sliding your left foot back beside your right. Continue stepping through with your left foot, and strike with the jo straight to your rear and turning your body to your left as you do this. Your right palm should be facing your sternum as you finish.
