I started this thread out of curiosity. Now, the move in question really isnt practical, it's just kool. I know everyone on this site has seen entirely too many karate movies (including myself lol)...and in most of them in the final fight scene our hero gets knocked down. now, he always flips up from the ground..but my question is what is the name of this technique and how do you perform it? you know, the kool flip up with the legs and straight into the ready stance for continuing the fight? any comments would be welcome. thank you

excellent points everyone. in my old art, Soo Bahk Do, it took 4 years before you were even allowed to test for BB. the longer time period forces you to become dedicated to the art and not just grab a belt hang it on your wall and quit.
