The Most Powerful Kick that Nobody Knows!
This is the most incredible kick that nobody knows. It’s true, and I never see anybody else use this kick. Not in commercial school freestyle, not in tournaments, not even in the MMA.
This kick is fast, as fast as thought, and if I am not careful, and don’t pull it and merely plant it gently, it is a real rib breaker. This kick is powerful, it is probably the most powerful kick in all the martial arts. And, every time I use it, I get it.
The kick is a replacement spin side kick, I often just call it a Pop Kick. That’s right, I turn my back to my opponent and can’t even see him. Yet, the kick works every time.
To master this kick, you have to be able to fight out of a horse stance. There is a weakness in fighting out of a horse stance. Obviously, your opponent has your side closed, and your position is not very good.
So I make my position very temporary when I fight out of a horse stance. I usually let myself be manhandled into the seemingly bad position, and thus is the opponent lulled. When I deliver this kick, then, the surprise of my opponent is even greater.
You’ve got to learn how to switch feet effectively to make this kick work. To practice switching I drop into a horse stance and learn how topop the energy from my tan tien, I envision snapping the fingers in my mind–very important–the actual fact of switching the legs must be just like the snapping of fingers.
Take a stance next a wall, and, when switching the feet, relax, breath easily, and pop the foot so you spin to the rear and land it gently upon the wall. Be totally synchronous, and let one foot land on the wall, and the other foot land on the floor. The trick is to relax and see the kick in your mind–just let the thought of the kick pop.
Do you see the magic here? It works because I am practicing kicking at the speed of thought, and the kick becomes virtually instantaneous, like the movement of a magicians fingers when he pulls that ace out of the deck. I start from one stance, the other fellow thinking that he’s got me because he’s shutting my body to the side, and wacko cracko, I pop a side kick from the wrong side. The instant coordination, the sudden drop of the weight, the pure strength of the side kick, the unexpectedness of it all, they all combine to make a mofo kick that can’t be stopped.
