Where to learn martial arts tricking?

Hey guys, my advice on aerial is,- push off hard on the right leg (if you're going aerial to the right) and make sure you extend your pushing off leg fully (...

As above. Those martial arts tricking moves like aerial cartwheel, butterfly twist, 540 kick etc. I know its popular in US and there are schools/clubs that teach tricking moves but are there any in Singapore? And i am not talking about a normal wushu class. I am looking for a class that specifically teaches martial arts tricking

capoiera?

i can assure you, if you join capoeira for that sole purpose, then you will be sorely disappointed.

i guess what your looking for is XMA or Xtreme Martial Arts, good luck in finding such classes.

Or, you could find RETARDED_MORON, maybe he could help you out Laughing

No classes, I learnt it all with my friends.

Just do a Yahoo or Google video search. You will find enough.

any1 know how an aerial cartwheel stunt is performed... Laughing

Jem777 SG

Secret lies with your trailing leg + hard pushing off the legs + your arm.

thanks for e concise info.. Laughing

Hard to explain leh. Unless I can show you. My dominant leg is my right leg. So I stand with my right leg forward. When I get ready to lift off. I push hard with my left leg and swing it back wards. Whilst doing this, I'm pushing upwards with my right leg. The hand helps with gathering momentum for your upper body.

You can check out my old martial arts tricking sampler in my signature. PM me. Smile

Your humble KING may offer you a lesson

There used to be a bunch of guys at the Esplanade underpass who tricked, but they eventually sold out to the “B-boy” losers.

Were/are you from HCI? Nice 540. You should do a dismount from the rugby post. Did I see a butterfly twist in there somewhere? I still can't get my double leg/dupla down.

That sampler was filmed in 2005. I can do more than that now, just never had the time to release samplers anymore. My friend has one of the smoothest double legs ever, but he quit tricking. Have you tried "blocking" during your take-off and torquing your shoulders?

By the way, I was not from HCI; I lived in its boarding school for a while though. Smile

I demand more samplers! I've tried it, I just can't jump high enough. Of course this guy doesn't have that problem.

Hi all, how long did u all take to master the aerial cartwheel. I have been practising for a month but is getting no where. I cant do splits and my leg power is still not very gd. Does one really nid flexibility and leg power to achieve a aerial cartwheel? I heard that if u cant do splits, then u have to swing your legs even harder. True?

Second thing is do u swing your back leg up first and then jump on your front leg or reverse the sequence or do both simultaneously?

Start with one handed cartwheel? I swing my back leg first before pushing off.
