Confined spaces produce dangerous situations
A basement or cellar entrance is a very good place to simulate fighting in a confined space.
To make things even more difficult the WT defender has two attackers to deal with, and he must try to put both out of action. This is a fairly demanding exercise which should only be done by more advanced students, for the defender has his hands very full even if the attackers do not attack at full power to begin with.
Learning progress is particularly fast if the three persons involved move slowly at first – practically in slow-motion. This gives the defender the opportunity to carry out the movement sequences in a relaxed, stress-free manner. As in Chi-Sao training this leads to the goal of coping with hard, fast attacks under stress more quickly.
