Dear Masters and dear friends, I have some questions to do.
I watched the lesson on the kicks, and I'm trying to learn the correct way to performing them.
1- keyeto: In the video I see the right foot going near the left leg while is making a slight turn. Looking at the foot, it is straight to 12 hour, then it comes near the ankle and it seems to be a little turned ( big toe toward 14 hour) and then straight again. Then the knee goes up ad the leg open to reach the target.
Like this: | / |
Is the turning just phisiological or there's an intention? I'm asking because I was taught to turn it and I think it shouldn't be like this and I think I'm wrong.
2-yeteh keyto: in picture 3 the knee seems to be waist high, but in the video I see the Master bending the knee and doesn't seems to go so high
How much should I rise the knee? Usually I go waiste high. Is it correct?
3-Su-to: in opening I used to keep the hands in soyetto ( is this the name for the open hand?) this way: right hand toward 14 hour, left at 10, hands waist high.
looking at Master Tawassoli's book I see him hold them shoulder high. Am I right if I start hold them higher?
I didn't thought it was a mistake because I thought it should be a defense from two kicks, and I thought the it was right at waist high.
Thank you all!
