Hi, Can anyone here help me with any fancy hand combo's for forms? thanks.

well i was actually showing the hand combination not the kick! its fancy hand combo's that i'm looking for.

Hi, I currently do hard style forms and was wondering if anyone could help me with learning a few fancy kung fu style moves to add to my form. The type of moves i'm looking for are moves like the one in this link: http://www.philcampbellxma.co.uk/move.wmv If anyone can send me any clips of any like this that i can learn i would be very grateful! thanks!!!

Hi i currently do shotokan karate but i also practice freestlye forms with flashy kicks, flips etc. I was just wondering would i get disqualified if i entered a TKD patterns competition and did this style of form?

Hi, Can anyone here do vertical sidekicks? If so what exercises can i do to strengthen my legs for this? I'm already working on the splits so i just need some leg exercises that actually work. Please don't post if you're just taking a guess at stuff i should do!

Yeah well i like both coz i like traditional stuff but i also like the flashy stuff aswell! I'm not one of those people that just wants to start karate to do the flashy stuff coz i've been training for 11 years so far and i'd just like to learn some other stuff that i couldn't do before!

Can anyone here do finger spins with nunchaku? how do you do them?

Can anyone give me some help on the basic moves that i need to learn to start using this weapon?

because i'm also interested in other martial arts. And weapons is one of the things i like even though karate is empty hand! As long as i learn something that i didn't alread know in the first place and it will benefit me i'll be happy learning it. My main weapon at the moment is the 6ft Bo staff.

Hi does anyone know much about the 3 section staff because i'm going to buy one but i'm not sure what length is best to have and also i have seen 3 section staffs that actually lock together to make a Bo but i don't know if these are better than regular 3 section staffs. Can anyone help?

actually an aerial cartwheel is used in many martial arts not just gymnastics!

I think you may need to start doing hip flexor stretches! That should help! I'm kinda in the same palce as you because i can't seem to get any lower so i'm gonna try the hip flexor streches and hopefully that should help!

Which splits are we talking about here? The ones where your legs are out at each side or the ones where your legs are infront and behind you?

Yeah i can kick really high but i still aint got them splits!

Do Air Alert! That increases your vertical jump!

Your supposed to but Sai that are around an inch past youe elbows to enable reverse strikes!

i don't want to learn everything that she does in the film i just saw the move she does when she turns around at the start and it looks kinda like she's doing a wired style figure of eight. I know this is a real move and this is the only thing i want to learn. I know the rest of the stuff she does is wrong because she has totally the wrong grip plus she is doing attacks and hitting bags which i wouldn't be doing anyway as i'm doing it for weapons forms! Its just that damn move she does at the start! Is it a figure of eight!???

But its kinda wierd coz i know he hasn't learned the sai before as much! I know this because he's my dad! Thats why i'm just getting the extra help.

i'm from Birmingham

Well my instructor doesn't concentrate on weapons as much as the other aspects of karate so he helps me with a lot of stuff but whats your problem with me wanting to ask other peoples opinions on stuff!?

I do train with them! Who sed that i don't?

Yeah i thought she was holding them wrong but i still want to be able to do the thing she does. She holds the sai the wrong way and rotates her wrists so it looks like the sai are spinning. Its harder to do it holding the proper way for this move.

Does anyone know any sai training drills?

Has anyone seen Daredevil where Elektra is practicing in that room with the bags? Does anyone know how she does those moves at the very start after she flips the sais up then turns then she does this thing where she spins both sai and moves from side to side and sorta spins the sai alternatly as she goes forward?

I can do one now but it hurts my knees!
