Sacrifice Kicks: Advanced Martial Arts Kicks for Realistic Airborne Attacks - Marc De Bremaeker - Bog

'Sacrifice Kicks' will comprehensively present the most important Martial Arts Airborne Kicks: Flying Kicks, Hopping Kicks, Jumping Kicks and Suicide Kicks. They have been dubbed 'Sacrifice' in the spirit of Judo's redoubtable Sutemi Takedowns in which one sacrifices his balance in order to throw his opponent down. Flying Kicks are not about showmanship, they are very effective techniques when used judiciously. They need not be necessarily high and spectacular; they can be surprising Jumping Kicks and Hopping Kicks executed long and low. And Suicide Kicks take the Sacrifice principles a little further: they are extremely unexpected techniques delivered airborne, but with little hope of landing on one's feet, unlike classic Flying Kicks. All these realistic maneuvers, coming from Karate, Krav Maga, Kung Fu, TaeKwonDo, MMA, Capoeira, Muay Thai and more, are described with applications and training tips. Over 1000 Photos and Illustrations will help you develop your airborne kicking skills, regardless of your personal style.
