ROUNDHOUSE KICK

The roundhouse kick is a commonly used technique in martial arts. This kick is especially popular in taekwondo competitions. This fast, powerful technique can be deceptive, and your opponent may have a hard time figuring out where it's going to hit him until it's too late. To perform this kick, lift your leg off the floor and bend your knee. Kick horizontally at your target with your instep or the ball of your foot. Twist your hips and quickly snap your knee to generate power in this technique. This kick is typically delivered to the midsection or head. Raise your knee higher to perform head-level kicks.

FOREARM BLOCK

Martial artists often learn a series of blocks to protect themselves from punches and kicks The forearm block is used to deflect an attacker's punch while simultaneously hurting his arm. Perform the forearm block by first pointing your fist at your ear and pointing your elbow to the side. Swing your upper arm across the front of your chest. The outer edge of your forearm should make contact with the assailant's arm. Correct timing is essential in successfully blocking an incoming punch. You can also use the forearm block as a defense against a lapel grab. Use this technique to force an assailant to let go of your shirt.

Shorin-ryu

Shorin-ryu was founded by Choshin Chibana in the 1930s. Shorin is the Japanese word for Shaolin, the name of the famous martial arts temple in China. The name reflects the fact that Chibana's karate is a mixture of Shuri-te, an Okinawan martial art, and the Chinese martial arts Chibana learned during his travels.
