proper application of tan sau
I wanted to get peoples ideas on our "dispersing hand" or tan sau.
I was working with a friend on the various breakdowns of tan sau. He would attack with anything he wanted (as far as hand attacks are concerned) and I would only defend with tan sau.
I found that I had trouble applying the tan sau to the hoi mun when I start in nuetral(horse). For example if the opponent punches with his right and I deflect with a right tan sau to the outside gate of his attack (the outside of his arm) I found that my footwork wasnt fast enough to obtain the right angle to apply it without having to "push" at the very end of the movement.
What can I do to remedy this situation? If I use jaam sau on the same attack it works fine, is it just that tan sau would be better for a secondary application, say like after a pak sau or something? Id like to know other ways you guys apply tan sau as well! Thanks for the help!
