NAUGHTY MONKEY KICKS AT TREE

Intensive Shaolin Kungfu Course


This kicking technique is called “whirlwind kick”. It looks like but is not the same as the round-house kick in Taekwondo. Unlike in Taekwondo, kicks in kungfu are purposely inconspicuous. It is very important to ensure one's safety before kicking.

Notice how useful stances are. As Dave has controlled Grandmaster Wong's both hands, it appears that Grandmaster Wong has no way to block Dave's chop. Yet, by moving back into a False Leg Stance, Grandmaster Wong gets out of the difficult situation. Grandmaster Wong “threads” the chop. His defence is not a block. Had it been a block his arm could be broken by Dave's chop.
