So today we've learned the complete steps to do a five forty Tornado Kick. We've gone
over a few variations on the degrees of rotation and different styles you can incorporate for
this kick. Also keep in mind, definitely want to wear the proper clothing, stay warm, stay
loose, work on that flexibility in order to get that leg up. Now when we do the kick,
again, in order for the leg to come up, you need to have the flexibility for it to come
up fast and come down. Now remember the following steps: the preparation for the movement, stepping
into it, into the proper horse stance where your body is straight and aligned. It's really
important for you to do this kick that your body is straight because if it's crooked,
it's going to be bad for your back and it's also going to make you go on an off axis.
So let's take a look and remember to jump straight up as opposed to jumping forward.
We want to keep the body tight throughout this and therefore when we land, we can have
a solid jumping side five forty kicks.
