My Sifu was showing us a few good places to pinch and cause pain today, just touching on it for fun but not getting too super involved. He showed a great place on either side of the lower-middle back to grab and cause a big ouchy. So me being the inquisitive one I say "What happens when you are locked on and they fall to their knees". Since of course, we were going easy on eachother and just making it smart we were all able to stay on our feet.
He says "OK, let's see". So he goes for the pinch, and I let myself turn into dead weight. He clearly lost balance, I assume since I did it so abruptly. I really wasn't trying to be a smart aleck and cause that to happen, it just did. Well, he came down with me.. Right on top of me. And said "Now that I am here, I can do this" (face poke on a nerve under my cheek) "and perhaps this" (another poked facial nerve). And of course, I was in significant pain.
Great lesson, Sifu! Of course my face hurts now, but trust me, I will not forget where to poke. I've been constantly reminded of the spot for the last 5 hours! :uhyeah:
