Punching, Thrusting is a technique to attack the face or the chest of the opponent with your fists. It is a technique that is more advantageous than kicks by opponents that are closer. Tzireugi is similar to Punching, Thrusting but one would attack with the fingertips. Since the technique requires the hands to be opened, one can attack further but it needs a lot of training due to potential injury of the fingers.

* Training Sequence
1. Trunk opposite side punch
2. Trunk straight punch
3. Pulling and chin punch
4. Side punch
5. Straight spear finger thrust
