Hi!
I read, that in WC/VT/whatever, there are only 8 different kicks. Could someone please tell me, what kind of kicks there are?
I'll start the counting:
Chum Kiu:
1 Front-kick (name?)to the hip
2 Side-kick (name, too?)to the hip
3 this strange little front-kick to the side (is it a snapping kick or a "normal" front kick?)
Biu Dji:
4 Kao Gerk
5 Huen Gerk (is it really a kick - or more a kind of "sweeping kick"?)
Wooden dummy:
6 this "scratching" kick, target: the shin
7 Gan Gerk
8 hey wait, something's missing???
Oh, and btw: we did a lot of talking about extending the arm when punching. How about the knee when kicking, hm?
Thanks a lot,
Armin.
