What is the 6 strike is this supposed to be a thrust to the chest but is practiced in a modified position for safety

[@synergymartialartsacademy9064]

The number six strike is practiced in the cuentada (or play) as a thrust so the student can practice twisting the body and getting a proper block. If you’re talking about using a blade, you can practice it as a thrust, but with the stick, the application in my opinion and how I use it is as a flick to the head. That’s a good question, and something maybe I need to consider explaining in a future video!
