While using this style, as a move action, you can protect adjacent allies from a single opponent that you currently threaten. This grants adjacent allies a +2 dodge bonus to AC against that opponent's next melee attack (as long as that attack comes before the beginning of your next turn), but causes you to take a -2 penalty to AC against that opponent until your next turn. The dodge bonus against the designated opponent's attacks persists even if your allies move away from you.
Prerequisites
Combat Expertise, Combat Reflexes, base attack bonus +2 or monk level 2nd
