More about Chen Style Kicking



On Sunday, Shifu focused a bit on the kicking techniques from Lao Jia Yi Lu.
We practiced the technique shown above for a short while. Important points to remember are that the kicking leg is in an unweighted position while in the air, that tells us that we need to develop dexterity in being able to use that foot position for blocking, or impeding an advance, can kick either straight ahead, or to either side of an opponent's lead leg or into the body. Also, it re-emphasizes the need to learn to do something with the hand techniques while being able to apply kicks simultaneously on the low line.
