Which term denotes the High Section Block?

• A. Ahneso Phaku Ro Mahk Ki
• B. Sang Dan Mahk Ki
• C. Phakeso Ahnu Ro Mahk Ki
• D. Hu Kul Sang Dan Mahk Ki

Answer: (D)

High section block is a defense aimed at intercepting kicks to the head, so your forearm rises to protect the face at head height. The term that designates this specific technique, using the outer edge of the forearm at high level, is Hu Kul Sang Dan Mahk Ki. Hu Kul indicates the outer-forearm motion, Sang Dan marks the high (head) section, and Mahk Ki means block. This combination uniquely identifies the high-level, outer-forearm block. The other terms describe different block shapes or heights, such as inside-out blocks or blocks not specifying the outer-forearm motion.
