“Open” means both partners have mirrored stances (e.g. if one partner is in left stance, the other is in right stance)

“Closed” means both partners have the same foot forward (e.g. both have right foot forward).

Stepping “outside” means stepping toward the attacker’s back.

Stepping “inside” means stepping toward the attacker’s front.

Techniques

Both partners begin in closed stance. Attacker performs the attacking technique. Defender does the defense and then the counter. Both partners repeat on the other side. Then they switch roles and the former defender goes on the attack.
