Hi my name is Dan Schmidt from the Chinese Martial Arts Center and today we are going to be showing you the proper way to form the tiger tail kick. Alright from the fighting position, you want to switch down. Place the hands on the floor; keep your knee close to your body. You don't want your knee to go out to the side. Be on the ball of the foot, look where you are going to be performing the kick. Pick up the leg and kick straight out and immediately you want to get back up. So again, so he is here, he turns down, put the hands down, pick up the leg and kick. In fighting speed like this go ahead kick and then up. It is very important that you maintain your balance that you can get up and go down as fast as you have to. So when you do this kick this kick is good for kicking low limbs like the knees or the groan or the chest or even the rib area. So if I went to the top, if I was going to rush in he can drop down kick straight under the arm or my chest area or also if I was to move in he can kick straight at the knee so I move in right there. Also if I was to be wildly swinging he can kick right to the solar plex if I score myself 1, 2, ok straight in. That is the proper way to perform the tiger tail kick.
