Make sure that the first one is set specifically to knock the player down the first time they try to break the obstacle, and that it gives them time to try to cancel the attack. There should be more than enough time between individual "attacks" for the player to get off a strong attack, at least after the first guaranteed "hit".

Have the heavy attack animation of the enemy be similar to the players: they will see that the vulnerability goes both ways.
