Short forms required for promotion from Rank 3 to Rank 4. Each of these forms starts from natural stance and has "left" and "right" halves which are mirror images of each other. The right half, which usually begins with a right-sided attack, is always performed first, followed immediately by the left half.

Short Form 16
Short Form 17
Short Form 18
1:
This bird break serves multiple purposes. The immediate effect is to counter a grab of the performer's right wrist, but proper application also has the effect of a) pulling the attacker off-balance and/or forcing em to commit eir weight to eir front foot and b) turning the defender's torso to the left and bringing eir right hand to eir left hip. The defender can then uncoil to deliver a particularly effective rising sidehand.
2:
Hands remain in guard position from the delivery of the sidehand through the delivery of the snap kick.
Short Form 19
Short Form 20
Short Form 21
1:
Maintain outward block through this point. Inward and outward blocks should meet and form a transient cross-block.
2:
Lean forward, leading with chin. The idea here is for the defender to bait the attacker into launching a strike at the defender's face.
Short Form 22
1:
Same thing as short form 21; transitory cross-block here.
2:
One of the few times where it's appropriate to throw a reverse punch from bow stance.
