01:411, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10
01:42Now we will start with the Hapki Doh stretching techniques. First we will begin with neck stretches. Hantshya side.
01:49Ready. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, left. 1, 2, 3,
01:584. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, round. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3,
02:07change. 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4.
02:11hip stretches. Let's go. One, two, three, four. One, two, three, change. One, two, three, four. One, two, three, four.
02:21Palms down. It's very important. You notice the legs are completely straight. The back is straight. You don't want to
02:29put your head down and get an arc in your back. You want to keep that back straight and reach
02:33forward with your chest.
02:34Right toes up. Lean down. Making sure that the left heel is down. Keep the back straight and the right
02:43toes straight up. Switch the other side. Keep the same posture. Back straight. Toes straight up. Back in the middle.
02:53Elbows down. This one, you can spread your legs up a little bit more. It's more comfortable. Make sure you're
02:59reaching forward with your chest, not so much with your elbows.
03:04It's very important you hold the posture for a few seconds. Go back to right toes up. Sit down. Grab
03:14your foot, both hands. Lean forward. Making sure you're not putting your head all the way down. You want to
03:20reach forward with your chest and your shoulder. Let's pull the ball of your foot all the way back. Stretch
03:28in the middle.
03:30Try to get that chest down. Back straight. Hold the posture for a few minutes. Back down.
03:44Right now you'll be stretching all the muscles that you're going to be using and all the kicking. Switch the
03:51other side.
03:56It'd be a really good idea before you start doing any kind of stretching techniques to warm up. That means
04:02you can, you know, ride your bike, jump rope, or you do a little bit stationary running. Let's go in
04:07the middle. Chest down. Back down.
04:14Back down. Try to wriggle at your breathing. Breathe through your nose. The breathing is very important in stretching.
04:28Now we're going to move on to Chinese splits. Let's go, girls.
04:35At the beginning stages, you might not be able to go all the way down, but little by little, by
04:40stretching more and more, you'll be able to go all the way down.
04:46These stretches are incredibly effective. They're going to be used a lot in doing side kicks and some of the
04:52jump kicks you'll be doing.
04:54Go and sit back. Let's lean forward all the way with your chest. Try to practice these stretching techniques very
05:04slowly.
05:04Don't push yourself. Try to go as far as you can, keeping a good posture. Keeping your back straight and
05:10chin up.
05:13Let's lean to your right side. To your left. Back to your right side. Let's go to American splits to
05:32your right side.
05:36Same thing as this split. You might not be able to go all the way far, but little by little,
05:41you will in time.
05:45Lean forward all the way. Up. Switch the other side.
06:02Just pull the toes all the way up. And back in the middle. Back to splits. American to your right
06:19side. Switch left.
06:24This quick changing motion will actually loosen up your hips. Switch again. Try to keep both legs straight. Switch again.
06:36Switch again. And stand up.
06:45With the next exercise. You're going to need your partner's help. Let him stand up right in front of you.
06:52Put the straight front kick on top of the shoulder. Lean forward as much as you can.
06:56Now the partner. Now the partner, I want you to back up a little bit more. Make her work for
07:01it a little bit more. Right?
07:02And you keep back straight. Very important to keep a good posture. Back straight. Now let's get into the front
07:08kick position. Hands up. Good posture. Very good.
07:11Try to hold that position for a while. So you can really stretch all your muscles. Okay? And you can
07:17have your partner come down a little bit more.
07:21Now turn it to a side kick. Good balance. Take your time. There we go. Great. Let's rotate those hips
07:29all the way. Make sure your toes are pivoting.
07:32Facing the opposite direction. Hands by the face. Good posture. Back straight. Very good.
07:39Let's bring it down a little bit. And turn it to front kick again. Take your time. Very good.
07:47Okay? Back to side kick. This switching motion will actually loosen up your hips. It's really good for you.
07:53In doing your side kicks and your front kicks. Back to front kick. Very good. Now go ahead and sit
08:00down, ladies.
08:03The next stretch is also done with your partner by spreading your legs out all the way. One side will
08:10push the other partner's legs all the way out.
08:13And you'll be pulling your partner inward. Try to pull. Hold it for about 30 seconds. Then let him go
08:22back up. And you can do that in routines about four or five times.
08:26Let's switch. Pull in. Okay. Switch one more time. The longer you can hold these positions, the better they'll become.
08:43Let's switch again. After you get a little more stretch, you can actually lift the person off the ground and
08:50let him do a complete stretch.
08:57Let's switch. Okay. Thank you, ladies.
09:16What we're going to cover right now are basic breathing exercises. Breathing exercises are one of the most important aspects
09:24of any trainings.
09:25Doesn't matter what style it is you're taking. Same as Hapkido, breathing are one of the most important things.
09:32By breathing properly, you actually are able to control your heartbeat, your blood pressure, your stamina.
09:39And in return, it will help you in your stretching, in your fighting, and your normal breathing.
09:47So the first thing we're going to do is to be on a wide horse stance, keeping your hands in
09:52front of you, fingers wide open, because the key travels in open fingers.
09:59Remember, the abdominal breathing comes from the center of the body.
10:03First thing we're going to do is to breathe through your nose, bringing the hands straight back.
10:09Breathe in. Drop the air straight down to your abdominal and through your legs.
10:16And breathe out while your hands are pushing out.
10:20It's very important right now to start visualizing actually the air going through your arms, going to your chest, filling
10:28up your lungs, going down to your abdominal, going all the way to your legs, coming back and going through
10:35your arms back.
10:36Actually seeing it and visualizing it go out.
10:40One more time, breathing in.
10:43Holding it for a few seconds, filling up the lungs, dropping it down.
10:49Make sure your stomach muscles are tight.
10:52Pushing it out slowly.
10:57One more time, breathing in.
11:01Holding it for a few seconds.
11:05Down and out.
11:10One more time, breathing in.
11:14Down and circular out.
11:20One more time, breathing in.
11:22Deep all the way.
11:26Down to a wide horse stance.
11:28Drop that body weight down and circle out.
11:31Down and out.
11:35Thank you ladies.
11:36Jinbei.
11:54One of the most important aspects of Hapkido are falling techniques.
11:59Naturally, a lot of people are afraid of falling.
12:02They think ground is something very hard and as soon as you fall on you're going to break all your
12:06bones.
12:06Well that's not true.
12:07If you know the proper way of falling, you can actually use the ground as aid and it can complement
12:13you.
12:14Now what we're going to cover right now is a basic front fall.
12:17Which is how you're going to fall frontwards.
12:21And this one, what David's going to be doing, he's going to be taking the impact, not on one part
12:26of the body so much, but dividing it into different parts of the body.
12:29And not landing on any joints or any bones to do any damage.
12:35So what he's going to be doing, he's going to be slapping the mat.
12:38Which is very different than falling on the mat.
12:43Because he's not going to be jerking, he's going to be slapping.
12:45It's very important you can do this at home with me if you have a soft padded area.
12:50This is falling.
12:52One of your whole body jerks.
12:54What I want you guys to do is basically slap the mat.
12:57Like this, up, slapping it, bringing the hands up and actually slapping the mat.
13:04Okay, so front fall.
13:06Very important you guys key up at the same time to release the tension.
13:11At the point of impact, make sure you look sideways, so your face is not going downwards to break your
13:16nose.
13:17Back, okay.
13:22After doing this a couple times, if you feel more comfortable with it, you can start from a kneeling position.
13:28This time, when you do a front fall, the area of the impact are going to be your forearms,
13:33and you're going to be landing on the ball of your feet and spreading your legs up slightly.
13:40Again.
13:45After you do this a couple times, you feel a little more comfortable, then we can move on and do
13:50it from a standing up position.
13:53Same principle, going downwards, and just like you're jumping in a swimming pool.
13:58Same principle.
13:59And pull.
14:01One more time.
14:07Very good.
14:11Don't look down.
14:12All right.
14:48The next fall we're going to cover right now is a basic back fall.
14:52Back fall is one of the most important falls because of the chances of you being pushed
14:56backwards.
14:58Okay?
14:58Now in this one, first what I want you to do is to get a soft area, like a padded
15:04area.
15:04In this one, you're going to make sure your head is up, your legs are crossed, I mean
15:09straight forward, and your hands are straight across in front of you.
15:11First thing we're going to do is to try to teach you how to slap the mat.
15:15Okay?
15:16Go ahead and slap.
15:17Notice the hands are not way out here.
15:20The more away they are, the more exposed your ribs will be.
15:23It's very important you slap right by you and bring him right back.
15:28Do that a couple times, please.
15:31Very good.
15:32When you feel a little more comfortable with this one, you can actually sit up.
15:37Okay?
15:38Hands across.
15:39And very slightly, we're going to take the impact from here, straight up, and all the
15:44impact will be taken on the arms.
15:47Key up at the same time.
15:48Very good.
15:49One more time.
15:52Go.
15:54Okay?
15:55Same thing could be done.
15:56Standing up.
16:01Go.
16:03Okay?
16:04Again.
16:07Go.
16:09Go.
16:10Okay.
16:19Go.
16:20The next one is called a side fall.
16:22What we're going to do in a side fall, sitting down with the right hand out and left hand
16:30to your side.
16:31In this one, what you're going to be doing, you're going to raise the right hand straight
16:36up while you're doing a four kick with your right leg.
16:39Straight out.
16:40Exposing the whole side of you, landing on your right side and slapping with the right
16:44hand.
16:44Let's try it one time.
16:46Good.
16:48One more time.
16:49Stay down this time, please.
16:50Ready?
16:51Go.
16:53Okay?
16:54The falling is very important in this one.
16:57Make sure the feet are together.
16:58The knee up, hand for your side, and this one leg is straight down.
17:03Make sure the hip doesn't touch the ground and the shoulder is up with the elbow pointing
17:08up.
17:10One more time.
17:14Go.
17:16Good.
17:17This will be the other side.
17:21Go.
17:24Again.
17:28Go.
17:31Up.
17:32Same thing could be done from a standing position.
17:36Go.
17:38Good.
17:39Go to the other side.
17:42Go.
17:46Up.
17:52The next one, perhaps the most important one, is the right roll and the left roll.
17:58The ability to roll straight forward.
18:01Now, one thing I want you guys to get very clear on is that rolling has nothing to do
18:05with doing a somersault.
18:07Somersault takes all the impact on the back of the head, your neck, and your spine.
18:12The Hapkido roll is designed to take an impact from your pinky up, not touching your head
18:16or your spine, and landing on your shoulder and a side fall.
18:20So what I want you to do in this one is to put your right knee forward with your right
18:24toes facing forward.
18:26Right hand facing forward with your pinky straight forward, putting your thumb in side
18:31left.
18:32Now, notice from here, I'm going to be taking my pinky straight down, taking the impact,
18:37looking under my left shoulder, and my feet are going to be going straight over my head,
18:43landing on a side fall.
18:45One more time.
18:46One more time.
18:48From here.
18:50From here.
18:53Make sure the hip doesn't touch.
18:56Slap.
18:59Slap.
18:59Slap.
19:06Slap.
19:13Slap.
19:14Slap.
19:17Slap.
19:18Slap.
19:19Slap.
19:20Slap.
19:21Slap.
19:21Slap.
19:22Slap.
19:22Slap.
19:23Slap.
19:24Slap.
19:24Slap.
19:24Slap.
19:26Slap.
19:26Slap.
19:26Slap.
20:14Next, what I'm going to teach you right now is how to roll and get up from a rolling
20:20position, which could be applied in many fighting situations.
20:24Same way as you roll, let's say you did a roll and you landed on your side, like this.
20:30If you keep your feet together, you will come straight up, jumping in a fighting stance
20:36or whatever stance you want to go on with.
20:39The most common mistake is that people have a tendency to come up on their knees and this
20:46is what you want to stay away from, you want to keep your feet together.
20:50From here, go straight, straight forward or straight forward.
21:06Next one, we're going to get to a little more advanced techniques, which will be actually
21:11doing jump rolls.
21:12This one, you might have a partner to help you after you learn how to roll correctly and
21:19got all the fallings down.
21:20Now, David, on this one, I'm going to be teaching David, helping him out how to get off the ground
21:30and actually do a jump roll.
21:33Here, what I want him to do is just to do a basic roll, but what I'm going to try
21:38to do
21:38is to lift him up, let him get off the ground and land on a side fall.
21:42So from here, David, go and do a roll, one, and, right, very good, one more time.
21:50If you notice, at the point of impact, he's getting off the ground, he's clearly in the
21:54air.
21:55One, roll, and, very good.
21:59Now little by little, I'm going to have him push his right leg straight up and push off
22:05the ground and I'm going to be twisting his hand to help him get off the ground.
22:09One, and push, one, very good, one more time.
22:16The next few times, I won't even help him, I let him do all the work, push, straight over.
22:23This is the beginning of doing jump rolls.
22:26Now, if you notice, jump rolls are very handy in doing a lot of self-defense techniques in
22:32order to save your own joints from breaking, like doing this kind of thing, which you can't
22:37stand there, which you have to do, you have to get out of this by doing the fall.
22:42So if you ever put in this position, you would basically just do a jump roll.
22:47And if you do this correctly, it will actually complement your body structure and you would
22:53never need to go to a chiropractor.
22:55Okay, well, me and him, we're going to be doing, we're going to be demonstrating some jump
22:59rolls, which I'm going to be throwing him and he'll be flipping me.
23:06Let's go.
23:19You
30:08In the midsection, or spinning one.
30:16Next strike is a spinning backhand.
30:19Again, pivoting your front foot, looking over your shoulder, hit, and come back.
30:26Again, look, hand chamber, and come back.
30:32This one.
30:34This one.
30:35Right now, we're going to go over open hand strikes.
30:37First one, chop.
30:39From here, the palm faces your opponent, comes in, and turns at the last second for a damaging
30:47blow.
30:47It could be done with a soft part of the hand, which should be conditioned, or the wrist bone.
30:54So, it comes in, and turns at the last second.
30:57Same thing could be done, spinning chop, and bam.
31:03Again, turn, spinning chop.
31:06Or, it could be done like a slash to the ribs, or the other way.
31:13Next open hand strike is a ridge hand, or ridge cut.
31:17If you keep your fingers straight open, palm down, keep the thumbs in, the bone, the index
31:23finger bone, will be straight out.
31:24That's the bone you're going to be hitting with.
31:26From here, it's going to go around.
31:28Make sure your elbow is not extended at the point of impact.
31:32It could be done to the temple, to the cheek bone, to the ribs, to the groin.
31:37So, from here, you can go around, hit.
31:42Okay.
31:43It also could be down, could be done a little bit downwards for the collar bone.
31:50Straight, and straight.
31:51The next strike is a palm strike, straight forward, to the chin.
31:57Same thing to the body, could be done a little bit, with a little bit twist at the end.
32:03Straight, and twist.
32:07What we're going to cover right now, are basing blocking techniques.
32:10In Hapkido, there are no hard blocks.
32:13As you can see in other styles, like very inside block, or outside block.
32:18You're not going so much against your opponent.
32:20But you're going to be using, taking advantage of his own energy against him, and redirect his blow.
32:26So from here, I want you guys to stand right foot back fighting stance, right in front of your partner.
32:31From here, any of the hands, if it comes forward, step out of the way, and let your left hand
32:36just check it.
32:38Okay.
32:38First thing, when the hand comes, check.
32:40Same thing if it comes with this hand.
32:42Let's check.
32:43Step out, check.
32:44And check.
32:45This hand, check.
32:47Doesn't matter which hand comes in, you just check it.
32:50And make sure when you do it, keep your right hand down.
32:52So you're covering your whole body at the same time.
32:56Now from here, you could be switching your stance.
32:59Now, anything that comes in, just go out and the right hand checks now.
33:03This hand, right hand checks.
33:05See how my body moves at the same time.
33:09Checking the hand.
33:10Check.
33:11The other hand.
33:12Check.
33:12Make sure the left arm is down now to cover your body.
33:16Again, the next thing we're going to do from here, any of the punches come.
33:21Check.
33:22Bring your right hand up.
33:24To block that hand.
33:26The other one comes in, same thing.
33:27Check.
33:28The other hand come up.
33:30This time when the punch comes in.
33:32Check.
33:32Block.
33:33The other hand.
33:34Check.
33:35Block.
33:36And check.
33:38Block.
33:38Switch your stance.
33:40No, you stay where you are.
33:42Okay.
33:42This hand comes in.
33:43Check.
33:45Block.
33:45Puts that in the same position.
33:47Again, the other hand.
33:48Check.
33:49Block.
33:50You're right ready to counter.
33:52Again, this hand.
33:53Check.
33:54Block.
33:55The other hand.
33:56Check.
33:58Block.
33:58Okay.
33:59The next stage, from here, will be stepping out.
34:03While you're checking, while the right hand comes up, you could be striking your opponent
34:10at the same time.
34:11So, from here, becomes, check.
34:14Strike.
34:15The other hand.
34:16Check.
34:17Block.
34:17Strike.
34:19Same thing the other way.
34:21Hand comes in.
34:21One.
34:22Two.
34:24Again.
34:25One.
34:26Two.
34:27The other hand.
34:27One.
34:29Two.
34:29The other hand.
34:30One.
34:32Right hand.
34:33One.
34:33Check.
34:34And strike with the other hand.
34:36Okay.
34:37Now, from here, after you get into the habit of check.
34:41Block.
34:43And after you got a habit of doing just a check.
34:46Eventually, the ultimate stage would be not even worrying about that hand.
34:50Be a little bit faster than him.
34:52Redirect and hit at the same time.
34:53So, let's say if he's coming in with a reverse punch, step out and jab at the same time.
35:00Even if this hand comes in, step out and hit at the same time.
35:04Always covering yourself.
35:09Continuing with our blocking.
35:10What we're going to teach you right now are basic circular motion.
35:13As you know, circular motion is one of the most important principle in Hapkido.
35:17From here, stand up in a straight, ready position.
35:21Stepping right foot back.
35:23Right hand up.
35:24Palm facing you.
35:25Remember, you always block with the outside edge of the hand.
35:28The right hand comes, covers your face.
35:31As soon as it passes the other hand, the left hand comes up, turns your horse stance.
35:37The left hand comes up, while the right hand comes up, and they both turn at the last second.
35:44One more time.
35:45This is the principle of a fan.
35:47Is that you can never stick your finger through a fan.
35:50From here, stepping right foot back.
35:52Right.
35:53Left.
35:54And right.
35:56Same thing left side.
35:57Stepping left foot back.
35:59Left.
35:59Right.
36:01And left hand up.
36:02The application of this will be, fighting stance right foot back.
36:06Let's say, you were fighting someone, and two strikes came up to you at the same time.
36:11Or one after each other.
36:13Let's say your opponent throw a punch at you, you block, and she's going to throw a front
36:17kick.
36:17So you step back, and you also cover for both of them.
36:21Do that one more time.
36:22So from here, let's say she threw a punch, step back, front kick.
36:25Then you move on.
36:27Okay.
36:28That's the basic principle of circular motion.
36:31Also, if you are fighting your opponent, and if you want to switch your stance, and not
36:35leave yourself open, you could be circling at the same time.
36:40So if anything comes towards you, you're covered.
36:43Even if you want to move to the side, if something comes towards you, you're covered.
36:48Okay.
36:52Also, for basic blocking techniques.
36:55We use blocking when the punch comes.
36:58The right hand could come up with inside, blocking inward or outward.
37:06But they're not done so hard.
37:09Okay.
37:10Not so much going against your opponent, but just basically complementing the blow that's
37:16coming towards you, and redirecting it, and moving with it.
37:20So while the opponent is going, you can take advantage of his or her force against yourself.
37:26Now what I'd like to show you is a little routine that my students practice at the studio to develop
37:32their hands for blocking.
37:34From here, standing up in your ready position, we're going to do that same fan principle that
37:39we talked about before, but instead of going inward, we're going to go outwards.
37:43So from here, starting right and left.
37:47Doing the outside block.
37:49Same thing, switching your stance.
37:52The other side.
37:53You practice everything on both sides.
37:55Doing your circular motion.
37:57Covering your body.
37:58Another way.
38:00Your left side.
38:02Notice that my hand always turns at the last second to deflect your opponent's strike.
38:07From here, we're going to go over the basic blocking techniques.
38:12One, covering your whole body.
38:14Switch.
38:15The other way.
38:17And back.
38:18The same thing.
38:19Switch.
38:21The other side.
38:22First one.
38:24Second.
38:25And back.
38:26And finish.
38:30These blocks could be done from a fighting stance.
38:33Let's say something is coming towards you straight forward.
38:35You want to step out and cover yourself.
38:37Rather than using one hand, straight up or down or whatever.
38:40From here.
38:41You want to use both hands.
38:43Cover yourself.
38:44Or the other way.
38:45Cover yourself.
38:46Something comes from this way.
38:48Check.
38:49Okay.
38:49Make sure you're covered and the left hand could come up and you're ready right to counter.
38:53go over.
38:55Time.
38:56Time.
38:56That she's striking.
38:58I'm circling.
38:59Different directions.
39:01While she's being wide open.
39:04Straight forward.
39:06Okay.
39:07Strike comes.
39:08I move out.
39:09Instead of going straight forward, I move out to the side.
39:12She's wide open.
39:15Straight.
39:16Moving out.
39:17Wide open.
39:20Check.
39:22Check.
39:24Check.
39:25Check.
39:26And straight forward.
39:27Remember.
39:28Anything that comes around, you should be going straight forward.
39:31Because that's it.
39:31Show the system between you and your opponent.
39:34Something goes straight.
39:36Check it.
39:37Something comes around.
39:38Goes straight.
39:40Remember the fact that we were talking about.
39:43That it doesn't have any set patterns of movement.
39:46Then let's say you're home alone.
39:47And you have no partner to work with.
39:50What you can do.
39:50You can start using your imagination.
39:52And visualize somebody attacking you.
39:54From here.
39:55Just move around.
39:57Pretend like something's coming towards you.
39:59Move around.
40:01Block.
40:01Strike maybe.
40:03Something that goes around.
40:04You can go straight.
40:06Turn.
40:07Maybe something coming like a knife thrust.
40:09Move out of the way.
40:10Make sure both hands are one down.
40:13One up.
40:13Always covering yourself.
40:15Going straight forward.
40:17Move.
40:18Check.
40:19Check.
40:20Maybe up.
40:21Reverse punch.
40:23Check something comes towards you.
40:25And just keep moving around.
40:26Using that circular motion.
40:28Strike.
40:48Now we're going to cover the Hapkido dynamic kicking techniques.
40:53We're going to start with some basic kicks.
40:55And move on to some advanced kicks.
40:58Right now we're demonstrating a basic front kick.
41:01Notice the target goes from knee level to growing.
41:04Now we're moving up to the midsection of the body.
41:09And head level.
41:10Now notice the area of the impact.
41:14Could be knee.
41:16Growing.
41:17Face.
41:18Or solar plexus.
41:19And area of the foot is ball of the foot.
41:22Now I want you to notice the slow motion.
41:25We're going to start with chambering the knee.
41:28All the way up to your chest.
41:30Releasing.
41:31Getting full extension.
41:33Recoiling it.
41:34And putting it down.
41:36All the kicking techniques that you've got to be observing today.
41:39Has three different stages.
41:42You initiate.
41:43You explode.
41:44Then you recover.
41:46Now we move on to side kick.
41:49This version is called the side kick front leg.
41:54Notice the knee comes up.
41:55Gets full extension.
41:58Lock the leg.
41:59Back to the chest.
42:00And come down.
42:03Maybe almost four different counts.
42:05One to bring it up.
42:06Two to lock it out.
42:08Three to recoil.
42:09And four to put it down.
42:12Now we're going to do a cross step side kick.
42:14Notice you cross step behind the foot.
42:16The advantage is to get more distance.
42:20And more power.
42:22And now we're doing the side kick off the rear leg.
42:26Notice the extension of the leg.
42:28Back to the chest.
42:30And coming down.
42:34Full extension.
42:36Back to the chest.
42:39Now we move on to a roundhouse kick.
42:42This kick could be executed with the top of the foot.
42:44Or the instep.
42:46Or the ball of the foot.
42:47Target areas could be inner thigh.
42:50Growing.
42:51Sole flexes.
42:52Face.
42:53Or the back.
42:55Notice the knee comes around.
42:58And snaps out at the last second.
43:05Okay.
43:06So this kick can be executed in three different counts.
43:09One to come up.
43:09Two to kick.
43:10And three to recoil.
43:11Or it could be done like this.
43:13With the shin bone.
43:14Which is very devastating.
43:16And the area of the impact is shin bone.
43:19Connecting to the thigh.
43:22Now the kick is executed in three different levels.
43:24Low, middle and high.
43:26Notice the snapping motion of the kick.
43:29Kick.
43:33Okay.
43:34We're moving on.
43:36To a cross step hook kick.
43:40We can do it low, middle or high.
43:44I want you to remember that most of the hapkyudo techniques.
43:46And the kicking techniques are executed low.
43:50Because of the combative aspect of it.
43:52But all of them could be also executed high.
43:55For the conventional aspect of it.
43:58Now we're doing two different versions.
44:00One cross step in front.
44:02And one cross step behind.
44:04Notice the area of the foot.
44:06Could be the bottom of your foot.
44:08Or the heel.
44:10Notice the leg comes up just like a side kick.
44:13And kind of hooks around.
44:16All the way in one motion.
44:19Keep that leg up as much as you can.
44:22And bring the knee all the way around.
44:27Now we're moving on.
44:29This is called a back kick.
44:31Notice this is very different than a spinning back kick.
44:34There's not a whole lot of spinning motion.
44:35That is a completely different kick.
44:37So we're going to do it in two different counts.
44:39So one, you're going to look over your shoulder.
44:43And two, we're going to get full extension.
44:46Lock the leg.
44:47And back to the chest.
44:48And come down.
44:49So look.
44:51Full extension.
44:52Back and down.
44:54There's not a whole lot of spinning motion in this kick.
44:57It's almost seeing a horse kick.
44:59You know, they don't turn around to kick.
45:01It's just a look over your shoulder.
45:03Full extension.
45:04And back to the chest.
45:06Now we just did it as a defensive move right now to return the favor if the person executes the
45:11roundhouse kick.
45:12So there's no blocking.
45:14You just return the favor.
45:15Notice the roundhouse comes.
45:17You go with the roundhouse and execute the back kick.
45:24Let's look at it from the front.
45:25So you look over your shoulder.
45:27Kick straight back.
45:29Getting full extension.
45:31Kicking right and left side.
45:39Now this is another version of doing your basic front kick.
45:42But we're going to do it with a knife edge.
45:46Notice the target area could be the legs, the groin, the midsection, or the head.
45:51The only difference between this one and a front kick is area of the impact.
46:00Notice the knife edge is the weapon we're going to use.
46:04Curl your toes back.
46:06Just like almost a vertical side kick.
46:11Going straight in.
46:12This kick works really well if the person's standing in a fighting stance and you want to kind of travel
46:16in between their arms and their forearms.
46:20Now we're going to go on to a couple different versions of the front kick.
46:23This one is called the jump front kick.
46:27The purpose of this kick is not so much to get height but to get distance.
46:33Now notice the height of the kicking leg depends to how high you throw your opposite leg.
46:40Notice the left leg comes all the way up at the peak of the height.
46:46Then you execute the kick.
46:47And the kick is done with the right leg.
46:51Okay.
46:52Same kick.
46:53We're going to go on now.
46:54We're going to do a jump side kick.
46:55Again, purpose is distance, not height.
46:59We're going to get a lot of momentum.
47:01Pushing off the front foot.
47:03The knee comes up and you execute the kick.
47:07We're going to go for the face and the throat right now kicking with the knife edge of the foot.
47:13Notice the leg comes up, kicks and comes back.
47:17It's very important to keep the back straight and keep your eyes on the target at all times.
47:24Remember the hook kick that we did?
47:26Now we're going to actually go on and do a cross step hook kick and now a jump hook kick.
47:33Again, the purpose is distance.
47:36Notice how you push off your front foot.
47:39The knee comes up, boom, straight on.
47:44Watch the front foot.
47:46The knee comes up and you kick.
47:49Now there's two ways of doing this one.
47:51One you can actually, with your left leg, the one you're not kicking with, can either be behind your foot
47:56or in the front.
47:58So notice on this one, I'm actually throwing the left leg up to get a little bit more height.
48:10Now we're going to do another version of an axe kick, which we call a jump axe kick.
48:16Again, the purpose is distance.
48:18The left leg comes up and the right leg comes straight down, landing in the opponent's face or the collarbone.
48:28Again, you can hit with the bottom of your foot or the heel, depending on how much damage you want
48:34to actually do.
48:36Notice the left leg comes all the way up, then the right leg starts going up and down.
48:44You got to remember, visualization is a very powerful tool.
48:48You got to be able to watch these tapes and not being impressed by them, but actually saying to yourself,
48:54I can be doing that.
48:56And visualize yourself executing the same techniques.
49:01This is a little bit more for targeting.
49:03And a kick is done in a 45 degree down in an angle.
49:08Leg goes up, the bottom of the foot kicks the apple.
49:16Next kick is a jump roundhouse kick.
49:19Again, this one is done for distance and for height.
49:22So we're going to warm up a couple of times, doing it low.
49:25Then we start going up.
49:28Notice the eyes are on the target at all times.
49:32I want you to visualize there's a string on top of your head.
49:35So when you jump, somebody is pulling that string up.
49:38So your head does not drop.
49:40Keep your eyes on the target.
49:42Throw the left leg up and execute that roundhouse kick.
49:46Even on the way down, keep your eyes on the target.
49:52Full extension, recall and down.
49:58Now we're going to move up to a jump back kick.
50:01As a training tool, we're going to actually step into this kick.
50:06So step right, left, jump both feet and warm up a couple of times.
50:10Notice we take two steps, right, left.
50:12Right, left and both feet.
50:17This kick could be done as offensive or defensive.
50:22It could be also executed as a pop-up, stationary, moving back or moving forward.
50:28What we look for is for you to be in the air at the point of impact.
50:37Now we're going to start the spinning kicks.
50:40First one is called the spinning crescent.
50:44There's a couple of things about spinning kicks.
50:46The concept is the upper body has to turn as much possible to carry the lower body.
50:54So upper body goes first, you look at your target, then you leave the ground to kick.
51:01You're hitting with the side of your foot, the back is completely straight and the arms carry you all the
51:08way through.
51:10This kick is done in a whipping motion.
51:13Now we're going to do a spinning heel kick, which is very similar to a spinning crescent, but the only
51:19difference is the head drops and you're hitting with the heel of the foot rather than the side of the
51:24foot.
51:28This kick could also be executed by putting your hand underground to get you used to doing it with your
51:35head down.
51:38Notice as a training tool and as a teaching tool, I'm kind of stepping into it to feel the momentum
51:44all the way through.
51:45But when this kick is done for real, it's usually done from a stationary position.
51:50So you don't have time to really step into it.
51:53Now we're doing what I call a five kick jump five kick or a butterfly kick.
51:59So the leg does a regular crescent kick, turns around, the opposite leg comes up and you do a jump
52:06crescent kick.
52:08Notice turn around, switch legs, left leg comes up and the right leg does a full butterfly kick.
52:19As you noticed before we were doing a spinning crescent kick, now we're going to go up and do a
52:23jump spinning crescent kick.
52:25So we're going to take a couple jumps first, kind of get used to it.
52:29Jumping both feet, warm up, step into it right left, both feet and full extension of the kick.
52:37Now what we look for in this kick is to tuck the left leg.
52:40If you notice the left leg kind of bends the last second or you can keep it straight, either way.
52:49Notice the upper body still twists as much possible before you leave the ground.
52:54So the torque is generated before you actually leave the ground.
53:06Okay, now we're going to do a jump spinning heel kick.
53:09Notice it's the same basic kick.
53:11Again, the head drops, the area of the impact could be anywhere in the body, but you're hitting with the
53:16heel.
53:18Up and over.
53:24Again, it's very important you visualize yourself actually executing these kicks.
53:31Okay, now this one is a jump spinning hook kick.
53:35Notice that both knees come up to the chest before you kick.
53:38It's different than actually a spinning heel kick because the knee comes up first.
53:43Then you actually execute the kick.
53:47This is a low spinning heel kick, or what we call a low sweep.
53:53Okay, the trick is to get as low as possible and travel very close to the surface of the ground.
54:01So we're going to actually step into it.
54:04Turn, the upper body turns, both legs under your leg.
54:07You leave the ground and you do a spinning heel kick.
54:12I've seen this kick done with the knee on the ground, pivoting on the knee, which I don't recommend.
54:18If you practice this kick right, it could be a very, very good defensive kick,
54:23or actually an offensive, executed to break the opponent's knee, not so much to sweep them.
54:30Here's another variation of a front kick, which we're going to do feet together.
54:35Another conventional kick.
54:37Notice, still has three counts.
54:41Knees up to the chest, execution, and down for recovery.
54:49Let's watch it again.
54:50Knees up, snap, and back.
54:55Just watch in slow motion.
54:58Notice, getting ready to jump with the arms back, bend the knees, and all the way up.
55:03Full extension, and recoil and recovery.
55:07Back.
55:15Now we're going to do the split kick.
55:17The way to practice for this kick is actually a flying side kick, or laying down on the ground.
55:21The both knees come up to the chest.
55:23A side kick and an inverted roundhouse, with a ball of the foot.
55:29Notice, both knees come up to the chest first.
55:32Then you kick.
55:36Again, knees up, and full extension, and recoil back.
55:45So this kick is called a split kick.
55:49I would like to thank you personally now, for sharing this time, and for sharing my knowledge with me.
55:57I want you to know a little concept that my teacher taught me.
56:00He told me, if I can do it, so can you.
56:04And I want you to understand this, and listen to it from your heart, and your mind.
56:11If you ever need to get a hold of me, please call 818-AREACODE 704-0606.
56:19May today truly be the first day of the rest of your life.
56:25I love you all.
56:47It was aŠ°Š»ŃŃē“ę„!
56:48And rather all this video, get out of me, it won't matter.
56:50I want a sudden editing...
56:51And then let's go to haunt the bard.
56:52Who are you?
56:58And I have a dog run it.
57:02How am I?
