This is your introduction into a scooping block and defending against a tae kwon do style front snap kick. AB variations are for a right kick and CD or for a left kick.
Remember when you do this type of block your heel palm should lead so that you do not jam your fingers.
A variation is what to do to if you scoop the kick past you but the legs are now spread apart. B variation after you have scooped the kick there legs are spread eagle so you can kick up between the legs.
C Variation they threw a right kick so you do the same move nothing changes other than drawing more into a cat stance for the block, D variation they throw a right kick with a punch so you will come down with the check block to pull the head into a forward elbow strike.
Remember position is more important than blocking
