Breaking Down the Tornado Kick

So we're going to get started with our 540 Tornado Kick. I'm going to demonstrate one from beginning to end so you can see the complete 540 Tornado Kick. I'm going to do it a little slower than normal speed so you can see the run and the setup. Now, watch as I take off and jump and do the kick. Now, I'm going to do another one from a slightly different angle and this time let's focus on the legs. I'm going to land on one foot. Right there, you're able to see from a different angle how we do the 540 Tornado Kick. Now, let's do one from this side. Because of the different angles, you're able to see the body as it goes up through the air and the leg as it comes down. Now, there's going to be a couple of variations. People like to call this a Tornado Kick or a 540 but later soon, we'll show you the difference between a strict Tornado Kick and a 540 degree rotation.
