Tasanki

Tasanki is a martial art created by the eldest warrior twin.

Strategy
The key to Tasanki is using your opponent's weight against them. It works best when fighting a larger opponent. Tasanki uses the weight of the users belly like a pendulum to gain the momentum to swing the opponent's center of mass, thereby knocking them off balance before applying a submission hold.

There are also certain stances a Tasanki fighter takes in response to the situation. However each move is fluid, quick, and precise.

Moves

 * Moon Toss: After sidestepping to the outside of an attacker's punch, the user grabs their outer forearm with her right hand and her opponent's back (usually the collar of the shirt). She then swivels her hips to swing her bell around while pivoting on her left leg and bringing her right leg back. The motion sends her opponent falling face first into the ground.
 * Belly Counter: Similar to the Core Thrust move in Tasanju, the user constricts her abdominal muscles before quickly releasing them. With the proper control, the wave of energy can be moved to any point in the body. However the strength lessens the farther it is from the warrior's center of mass. This is often used to break out of submission holds when used at the exact moment the opponent takes in a breath.
 * Flying Cutter: The attacker swings her following leg in a sweeping high kick, aiming for the opponent's head.
 * Reverse Flying Cutter: While facing away from the opponent, the fighter swings forward and brings her foot up to kick at the opponent. Usually the target is the opponent's thighs or stomach.
 * Viper Hold: After evading an incoming attack, the user spins to end up behind her opponent before going for one of the legs. She grabs onto the ankles and pulls her opponent to the ground before sitting on her opponent's back and crossing her legs around the target's neck. She uses the weight of her body to pin the opponent's arms below their chest.

Trivia

 * The animals that inspired this fighting style are the crane and the snake. Both are elegant creatures that became well known for smooth and fluid movements.
