Video Transcript

"CALAB LABARDA: Alright, the next section we're going to do we're going to go over helicopter spins, making it more advance. So, before helicopter spins at one, two, doing our L strikes like that, one, two. Now, we're going to practice doing it in 360's and changing up levels. What I mean changing up levels, I mean, going on to your knees, changing of levels, okay. So, that's going to look a lot better instead of doing your whole form, standing up, switching directions, bam, changing levels, doing helicopter spins, alright. Let's go ahead and break that down. So, first, make sure you got your L strikes down with the correct spin and do helicopter spins, bam, bam, okay, makes you go into a 360, alright. Now, let's go and practice going on to our knee. Okay. Let's go and face the direction of our right. So, drop on to one knee, we're going to a first bout using our nunchucks, come together, knees together. Okay, now, I'm in an angle. I'm going to face all the way to the back. Bring one knee around, okay. Now, I'm going to drop that one back again, bring the other knee up to back to standing position, and stand. So, I did a complete 360. So, one more time, we're going to go a little faster. Drop one, two, three, four, alright. You must have that section down before moving on. Now, don't drop too hard and bang your knees. Drop it real smooth. Okay, you don't want it choppy. Now, we do it with nunchucks. We're going to do L strikes, okay? Drop one, crisscross right here as you spin, helicopter spin, around, switch, two come around, three, come around again, four. Okay, so again here we go, helicopter spin, drop, one, every time I spin, two, three, come across, four. Okay. Do you see all the helicopter spins I did in there? So like, one, two, three, four, as I spin all the way back around, and that is going to be your knee helicopter spins changing up levels."
