Purity of Sleep/Stage 1

Overview
The most basic Purity of Sleep forms. This Stage focuses on the attacking aspects of the technique. Most people when they are asleep are unable to make any movement other than breathing. Stage 1 is meant as an introduction to the techniques Purity of Sleep is able to offer. However, evasive and redirection skills are a more complicated and higher leveled than just simply attacking in sleep.

Those that are in training, or using Stage 1, are only capable of using the odd movements that it gives, meaning that the opponent would, for the most part, be unable to anticipate the user's movements via traditional means.

This is considered, by Kyoto, to be the easiest form to use and master. It only revolves around attacking while in a relaxed-sleep state and most people are unable to dodge

Techniques

 * Sleep Form, Stage 1(スリープフォーム、ステージ/Suimin fōmu, sutēji 1)- Is Stage 1's medium for the attacks that it offers. This form's movements are that of a boxer. The person, when using this Stage, moves with rapid movements while in a drowsy state, of course, there are people that get cocky, and taunt the opponent in this state, hoping to provoke them while they're "vulnerable". Those starting out, of course, aren't fully capable of doing quick movements, despite their initial speed. When people are within their drowsy state, they aren't capable of multi-tasking to such extremes. Further training allows for the user to use quicker movements, and make more successful attacks.
 * Side Step Sweep(サイドステップ掃引/Saido suteppu sōin)- An attack gained via training in Stage 1. The user jumps around with their arms up. This technique requires for the user to keep watch over the opponent's movements, looking for an opening and then strike with their leg, making the opponent fall on the floor.
