Front Block
The Front Block (ahp makgi) is similar to a Middle Block except that the blocking arm may not come all the way into the centerline of the body during the block.
If the body is full-facing the target and the blocking stays at the center of the defender's body, regardless of the blocking tool stance used or previous position of the opponent the block is called a front block. It is mainly performed with the outer forearm, knife-hand tool, twin palm and palm, although occasionally x-fist, x-knife hand and reverse knife hand are used.
