Tae Kwon Do Kick Jumping Drills

Video Transcript

Hi, my name is Caleb Labarda. I'm the third degree black belt, Tae Kwon Do. I'm here with Expert Village and today I'm going to be teaching you how to do a five - forty. O.k. now, one of the first steps in starting to do a five - forty would be learning how to start jumping off your leg that you're standing on, kicking with it and landing on it, o.k. Now, so we're just going to practice basic jumping. Jumping, just for right now, pick up your knee, practice this, just stand on this foot and just jump, and land back on it, o.k. Just get the feel for that, going up and down, o.k. And, as you do it try to go higher and higher each time o.k. Now, after you get that, practice going, jumping over your foot, so you're going to stick your foot out like this, stick it all the way out and you're going to jump right over your foot and you're spinning in a circle, o.k. That would be like a small five- forty, o.k. It's very simple, you don't need to jump high at first, it doesn't look like much at all, o.k. But, it's good practice, stick your leg out, o.k. Jump over it and come out, o.k. And, if you can do it, start jumping more and more trying to throw your leg out there, o.k. We're not doing the spin yet, we're just practicing the jump kick over to see, get the feeling of the five- forty, so again, foot out, jump, and over so, just like that o.k. And that's going to be your set up for the five - forty.
