With Focus Mitts:

-1-6 and 1-3 plus Headcovers and Counters

With a Kick Shield:

-Inside Low Kick - Replacing the left foot with the right foot kicking up at a diagonal, through the leg, to square up your opponent and put them on their heels.  We are kicking at a diagonal in an effort to open up their hips, therefore it is not necessary to turn you hip all the way over when throwing this kick.  For this particular drill, we are using it to set up other combinations.

With a Kick Shield and one Focus Mitt:

-Combination:  Inside Low Kick> Right Cross:  Use the Inside Low Kick to square up your opponent and follow with the Right Cross

-Same as previous, now add a Jab or Double Jab prior to the Inside Low Kick (to hide the switch or step). 

If opponent steps in and ducks:
-Same as previous, now feeder will duck on the Right Cross scoop the head when withdrawing the right hand and throw the right knee, as you pull the right hand in to deliver the knee switch full plum.  Keep the left hand home until that time, pull the head to your left hand.  Do not extend both hands at the same time and leave yourself exposed.

If opponent retreats:
-Same as previous, now add Left Middle Kick following the Cross.  *You can step with the Cross, to cover the distance if they fade back or switch and step out off of the Cross if they hold their ground.
