Learning 540 Hook Kick from a TAEKWONDO MASTER

  • So I have attempted a 540 Hook Kick a couple times now.. I recently went to a Taekwondo school to try my luck with Master David Wright, and helped me put together this awesome 540 Hook Kick tutorial for you guys to see! I ended up getting a pretty good version of the kick within 15 minutes!! I barely cut this video at all. I wanted to put it together and make sure I included every nuance of the 540 that I learned to make sure people can put together the 540 hook kick on their own! Davids background is WTF Taekwondo and he is at Master Changs Martial Arts in Raleigh, NC!
    If you want to see me learn other tricking stuff like a Taekwondo Bali Kick, or if you want to see me hit other stuff like tornado kicks, jump spin crescent kicks, or more... make sure you subscribe!!

    David is a super good instructor and he makes you feel safe of what he teaches when he demonstrates it because he has a near perfect form since that 540 step up was a good instruction and he lands on the T and he is stable when he lands that's commendable and he also made the close-in open-up or tuck-in tuck-out his habit I can hope for this much proficiency 100 years later

    Sheesh, where were you when we learned this the first time! My old instructor had us already in the air by the time our ankles crossed on that first step, and it took me weeks to figure out how to untangle my feet in time to get the kick off and have my feet hit the ground before my ass did. (I cheated and just kept my insteps together, but that meant under-rotating and making it into a diagonal-downward hook kick. The board broke, but the examiner was clearly not pleased)

    Love or hate tkd, these guys are super flexible and light on their feet which can become a huge advantage in a real life situation. I currently take BJJ and did some kickboxing for a year prior and stretching is not something that is mandatory rather than suggested in these schools(during your own time). If it weren't for tkd in my younger days, I would be much less rounded martial artist.

      It's actually the best instruction from David, that I've seen yet, however I always taught you must return immediately to same location or fighting stance and flailing you leg out plus being out of balance in finishing kind of makes it mostly unusable

    waiting for the day you say "subscribe or i'll 540 hook kick you" ;)
    also a few tips for your 540,
    1. like he said ,jumping on the spot is super important, you almost want to drill the single leg jump as a separate drill eg. step forward, jump and land on the same spot
    2. rely less on your step and initial spin for rotation, it's what's throwing your body off balance. focus on the jump, and use your arms to bring yourself around to hook kick position
    3.your posture on the spin is affecting your balance, if you can keep your body as upright as possible until the hook kick part, it'll be more stable during your spin
    4. minor detail but you'll also notice your friend tucks in his non kicking leg waaaaaay more on the jump than you do, i'm not sure why it's important, but i've ended up doing it anyway

    • @tristantsang4325
      @tristantsang4325 3 роки тому +2

      There’s technically two ways to do this: the vertical spin or the double pump. The vertical spin is where your body stays upright the entire time. This usually makes it harder to open up your hips to do a proper hook kick, so most people who do the vertical spin will do a crescent kick instead. The double pump is the one where you tuck in your non kicking leg. For this one, you usually treat it like a 540 round kick but without the round kick, hence the chambering of the non kicking leg. People who double pump tend to lean back more, which makes it easier to open up your hips for a better kick but can also take away from your balance.

    • @lightxxatu
      @lightxxatu 3 роки тому +1

      @tristantsang4325 3 роки тому

      @@lightxxatu yeah, it's just a really big preference thing. Personally I like to double pump because it helps me get more height so I have more time to spot. Plus, it's good practice for other spinning moves that aren't completely vertical and go off axis, like the 540 round or sideswipe

    watch gnt's tutorial on 540 hook. Not necessarily to learn from but to understand the different ways of doing the spin in the air. In your video you're learning what gnt calls vertical spin 540 hook. try comparing it to the taekwondo version. You'll notice that it look a lot different to the other technique. For that harder version learning the 540 roundhouse is absolutely necessary. It teaches you getting that hip over the kicking leg and not around it

      There was a short clip of Steve-O trying to Wrestle Holly Holm. It goes exactly as you would expect.

    Where do you live to be near these amazing instructors? Also my Thai boxing student is going to have a good laugh watching me try to relearn a spinning hook kick let alone a 540 hook kick 😂. It’s good to show your student that the teacher is also just another student.

    i used to teach at master chang’s martial arts and the few things i can say about the 540 kick is that you wanna focus on your hand and knee up synchronization is key. secondly you wanna know when to lift your knee up for the lift of the 540
