The Upper Cut in Kung Fu

Thank you for coming back. Now we talk about the techniques of upper cut. Upper cut; where are you heading to? It's from the bottom to the chin. Now take a look, this is a pretty chin. I don't care if its double chin, split chin or sharp chin, with an upper cut because this is a very critical moment. If someone is holding and putting hands right here, the only thing you can do is just go for the chin. Sometimes it's illegal in tournaments. Now when it comes to the chin, imagine that you have a string pulling from your toes to the chin. You see this and then after that generate your power from your powerhouse from here. You've got to turn because once you turn it, it generates right there, but when you want to show two of them. You go from here. After that you twist still coming from the power house and then it goes right to that little chin. If this one is being hit, the mouth shut, the mouth shut and bite the tongue. I don't recommend that.
