3. Very slow motion technique. Use a basic technique, recommended with defense and counter, moving the center of gravity (shifting of body weight)

2. Escaping Two-Person Wrist Grabs

1. When possible, use leverage by circling and lowering elbows
2. Kick one attacker then the other - with one or both legs
