Side Punch - Jun Tsuki

Can you please help me with information on the Side Punch (Jun Tsuki). How to perform it (step by step) and then apply it on an opponent. Basically enough information for beginners and the basics will be more than enough.

Haven't you asked about side punches already? http://www.karateforums.com/yoko-tsuki-vt31258.html

If I understand correctly, jun tsuki is another name for choku tsuki / kara tsuki - i.e. a relatively "hip-free" straight punch. So basically, from your starting position, thrust your fist at your opponent using your arm and shoulder muscles but don't change the stance of your feet. Simple as that!

Jun tsuki means "same side strike" (roughly). I don't think it has anything to do with how little or how much hips are used, but that may be dependent upon how different styles use the term.

But it's a strike with your forward hand and foot being on the same side, whether they start that way or not.

# - We use the term when blocking and striking with the same arm.

Are you talking about oii tsuki or gyaku tsuki?

"# - We use the term when blocking and striking with the same arm." I'm not sure where that came from... was that something you meant to add?

At any rate, I'm talking about Junzuki/Jun tsuki.
