Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Caleb Labarda. I'm the third degree black belt Tae kwon Do, I'm here with Expert Village. And, today I'm going to be teaching you how to do a five - forty. O.k. tornado kick is going to look like this. You're going to be guards up, you're going to spin, and turn around here, o.k. Let's do it one more time, you're going to spin around, look at my target, ready, spin, and throw that foot out, o.k. That's going to be your basic set up for your five - forty, o.k. If you don't have a tornado kick down, you're not going to be able to do a five - forty; you've got to make sure you have that tornado kick down first, o.k. So, now, breaking down a tornado kick, o.k. I'm going to pre - pivot my foot, I'm going to pick it up, turn around toward my target, o.k. Now, I'm going to line up my knee with my target, now, I'm going to jump, switch legs, do an outside to inside crescent kick, right through my target, o.k. So, one more time, o.k. Pre-pivot the front foot, turn it all the way to the back, spin over, I'm going to look over my shoulder, pick up my foot, point it all the way towards my target, jump and kick, o.k. So, one more time, fast, spin, and kick, bam. And, that's going to be a tornado kick, all the way to the starting position."
