The Sanda Sidekick

[@michaelval7264]

The lead leg side kick was my bread and butter in sparring. It is powerful, fast, it creates distance to build combinations and works great when used as a stop hit to interrupt opponents. I particularly liked the heel slap drill with the skip in there, that's a good way to build speed and adjust you distance rapidly giving the kick a lot of versatility. Solid instruction here.

[@joaquinflores3547]

Everyone seems to Forget that this is a modern Chinese martial art and that Karate and Taekwondo have a traditional Kung Fu influence, and therefore do not expect it to look like Karate or Taekwondo

[@RyanMDanks]

Very practical and in-depth instruction. I enjoyed this very much!

bien hermano a seguir demostrando las clases, saludos de Perú la escuela wushu Hugo FLORES

[@hanooi8172]

Those are some great techniques. I'll have to practice those with my kids!

[@MrGaetano1]

Forgot about this drill. Gonna start intergrading this into my classes

[@JimmyPtheman]

Thank you for sharing this!

[@georgekondylis6723]

Pretty solid. Try eliminating the shuffle and using what I call a power slide as well. Basically, let your supporting foot slide as you kick. It eliminates the tell of the shuffle, while adding good distance to the kick. Related to this is drilling as a counter to the jab. No time to bridge the gap, no rear foot movement at all, except turning into the kick while timing the jab. If done correctly, you catch the opponent in the ribs at his moment of almost complete extension. A slight , natural lean away from jab. Just enough to accommodate the kick. I totally understand about not turning your hip over for fear of having your back taken, Jason. However, practicing with the full hip pivot is good. It allows for the one square inch of your heel to make contact while delivering much more power in the kick. The trick is in placing your foot immediately where you want it on the floor so you can use your follow up cross. Anyway, nice vid overall!

[@Wushutigercranekungfudragon]

I couldnt agree with u more sir Brillant advice.u are extremely knowledgeable. Thanks

[@georgekondylis6723]

Thank you! You’re welcome!

[@Global9bilReviewmborelldesign]

Totally agree as I get gout pain in the ball of my big toe I use your technique 60% in aqua training and 40% on the bag....thanks for your tips my side kick power has increased power, speed, and agility.

[@Koyaanisqatsi12]

Thanks for this nice tutorial. Mkay?

[@RexMerino]

Nice side kick i was a wushu sanda fighter before thanks for the tutorial

[@GothamKnight84661]

Thanks for the tips, there really helpful to me.

[@mrgees100peas]

Nice clean technique.

[@Sigma200O]

1:18 when my mom wants me to close the door while holding something😅😂

[@jamesmiles9048]

Sidekick best kick ever have to have combos with it though spinning backfist or elbow back kick,brilliant for keeping distance and kicking knee back,

[@lovecraft4780]

Sanshou kicks ass!

[@muththan3491]

One doubt. If sanshou matches brucelee long step side kick uses with close range distance means what will happen? That means that kick clearly meet or not? And next doubt is different force between brucelee long step side kick vs close range this video sanda side kick 🤔

[@sarbjeet1910]

thanks for this 😄😄

[@molind]

So when you are executing the shuffle you no longer are using the heal slap?

[@drricardoordonezrojo506]

i need this instruction

[@K.ligraf]

mkay.... mkay.... did this guy act in south park?

[@Skypad00]

Yeah, what accent is this? I hear it on a few Americans.

[@testaman6453]

[@abdabdabd2042]

verry nice

[@pedroivanovich]

Please do not ever forget the guard ;)

[@jeraldcuccurullo2497]

Why did you lose to Cung?

[@thechosenone3625]

Cause Cung is a beast

[@daylejanzendayao1255]

the other guy needs a body armor during demonstration 🤣

[@Mirandorl]

The reason I never liked this kick in kickboxing, or that I see in match fights, is that even if you land it well, the opponent will usually ride it out much like the teep in thai boxing. Its good for street fighting if you get jumped because it creates space and time to think, but in the ring it seems to usually lead to a reset by the ref because now you have 15 feet between you and your opponent. Unless you are really fast, its easy to telegraph and If your opponent side steps you, you are looking at being taken down as you complete the kick. I like the idea of using it as a punch counter though, that's really nice. Being short I would like to use that against a taller guy. One question - are you always using it as a lead leg kick? I just noticed you are standing southpaw!

[@cesaralvesdemoraes3187]

in sanda if you make the oponent fall off the plataform you score the round so a distancing kick is perfect for that. Besides you can end a fight if you land this on the ribs.

[@Skypad00]

This, a kick to the gut, ribs or kidneys is even more devastating than a punch. It'd fuck people up good. And the style of this kick makes it easy to recover back to striking position if you mess up.

[@Jon-ov4nc]

Wireline lead leg sidekick is already on if you just turn your hip in a little, the rear leg sidekick can be hrown forward but is uncommon due to not being the fastest of kicks due to needing to turn so much before extending the leg. a sidekick in self defence/street fighting it is intended for striking out to the side, so you extend a rear leg SIDEkick to create distance against someones buddy coming at you from the SIDE.

[@phamptom]

You can use this shuffle and kick to get in safely when you're out of reach. Having said that to me the real beauty of Sanda kicks if they all start the same with the knee up in front of you so it's hard to tell what's coming. And moreover without the shuffle there, they work at arm's length. You can just be standing there someone comes at you and you can kick someone at arm's length as quick as you can punch them.

[@joaquinflores3547]

TheDroidBay I will put it as simple as possible most people aren’t good in this kick because of the lack of practice and because of the mentality that some coaches install in there students that this technique does not work, wanna be more efficient just train the kick more and apply it in sparring

[@Leon-vp3fb]

he's wearing cung le shorts

[@james-yj7gp]

That is shanda or sanshou shorts....and Cung le was raised from sanda kung fu boxing

[@johannkrebzs332]

noob

[@Bando.Lethwei]

He fought cung le too.

[@sanjeevyadav9541]

I presume the bag must be a little more heavier

[@InfamousDK]

al hacer el entrenamiento siento que se me safa la rodilla. :/

[@justojosesigo]

Patea sólo con la fuerza de la pierna, no usa la proyección de la cadera para darle verdadera potencia al impacto. De ese modo, la patada es más un empujo que un golpe, carece de penetracion. Puede servir para apartar al adversario, mantenerlo a distancia, pero no lastima con la contundencia que una patada debe tener. Traductor de ggogle: It kicks only with the strength of the leg, does not use the projection of the hip to give real energy to the impact. Thus, the kick is more a push than a blow, it lacks penetration. It can serve an adversary, maintain a distance, but it does not hurt with the forcefulness that a kick should have.

[@joaquinflores3547]

Es que es estilo Sanda muy diferente al karate o taekwondo

[@victorchavesfernandes2211]

Why Sanda do not uses elbows and knees combos ?it is a very fast style, this guy is a true master...

[@victorchavesfernandes2211]

in the main Sanda national championship in China they don't use...

[@Andyhaucqog1]

Most sanda sanshou competition forbids elbows and kness probably due to wanting to emphasis their difference than muay thai and wanting to showcase throws and takedowns more

[@bryanfong1023]

Bc of takedowns

[@osamamakaree2575]

✌👍✌👍✌👍✌👍✌👍✌❤

[@LtActionCam]

Mmmmmmm kaaaay?

[@bradbode5246]

I like this. But I wouldn't call it a "Sanda" sidekick. I would call it a "correct" sidekick. Well done.

[@burningknuckle26]

Brad Bode its a fucking sanda sidekick

[@bradbode5246]

burningknuckle26 Cool. So it's different than other well done sidekicks in what way?

[@36424567254]

Brad Bode The one difference i see is that this seems to be the heel variation, i.e. the "pushing" side kick. Karate and Taekwondo traditionally prefer the blade-of-the-foot strike for this, while using the heel in the back kick (obviously, it's not like people in karate or taekwondo never wondered: "but what if i hit with the heel?"). That being said, i don't think any style teaches the sloppy sidekick he attributed to (mostly) karate.

[@bradbode5246]

Andrea Castellani thanks for your thoughts. I think you'd (or maybe not) be shocked at how often the "sloppy" sidekick is thrown. I've seen a lot of people throw a sidekick on the path of a round house kick, which makes it lack power. To your point it's probably more prevalent in TKD because they tend to emphasize speed for tournament fighting and it's faster to throw it on the roundhouse path. I'm not sure anyone intends to teach it "sloppy", but more so that they just don't correct the student enough. Students always find the easiest method don't they?

[@bradbode5246]

I should add... I think TKD uses the blade of the foot primarily because of point fighting. The kick can be "flicked" outward so to speak instead of "pushed" like a piston. Also, I wouldn't want to kick something really solid with my foot bladed like TKD does. But that's another topic. Thoughts?

[@ErickAJobim]

😎

[@Ophiuchus123456789]

Interesting to watch. I did Tae Kwon Do for a good five or more years and this training is very similar to how we were taught how to do standards side kicks. Chamber up and arc the foot into what was called a "footsword". But all his instructions here are all what I learnt like banging the kick out like a straight piston but also tucking it back in for a follow up if needed. Also, the foot you stand on needs to face the opposite way for stability.

[@joaquinflores3547]

This Sanda Not Tae Kwon Do the tecnique is a littlw difrent ans everyone has its own style

[@darrellng7617]

I'd prefer this variation than Joe Rogan's..but Rogan's TKD side kick is more powerful but ends in a pretty bad position if missed.

[@AmericanTestConstitution]

This guy is a descent fighter. At my first sanshou tournament, in high school, fought one of the guys Jason trained (Josh Bartholomew) in 1997. I lost by decision, but I do give the guy credit. He is a descent trainer. Josh fought Cung Le twice until a stalemate in sanshou . Jason and Josh were never able to secure a victory over Cung Le. Jason trained Marvin Perry. Perry one a USKBA Muay Thai title (The same one Jon Jones has won). Perry used this technique 100's of times to secure that title. Also Cung Le never fought Marvin Perry, the UFC fighters explanation was that Marvin was naturally 10's heavier than him. But the technique being shown is a descent one.

[@theDigitalVirus]

+Darrell Ng Bare in mind, that Joe Rogan is also a fair bit larger than Jason Yee

[@AmericanTestConstitution]

***** I think Jason has fought way more contact kickboxing matches than Joe. Joe is a Great State Champion Taekwondo man, but Jason has fought legit international pro kickboxers a good number of times. Joe has 3 fights, Jason has 30 or more, many in in the World Sanshou Championshios with 50 to 80 countries.

Soooo basically a sidekick

[@l2a3sterling]

NICE - but you side profiled before kicking - alas - a TKD lead side kick. Some nice drillls though

[@andersonalves1254]

This is Sanda!!!

[@AdvancedMuayThaiTech]

mmmkay

[@mantumukherjee2968]

I have a better side kick dude . where is the finishing twist

[@phamptom]

Ah yes, twisting the hip inwards to increase the range of the kick. Very powerful but you can't follow up with anything. If you don't know how to properly make this kick, the other one will leave you defenseless. That other kick is more of the ending of a larger combination. If you just throw it out of the blue you'll be very vulnerable.

[@mikolajunger3516]

ok

it is a Sanda dance... lol

[@andersonalves1254]

??? Dance???

[@lewischer3435]

That's not a perfect kick, more like a pushing kick.

[@jeremybrown9611]

1st all Sanda is not a Martial Art, so there's no such thing as a "Sanda Sidekick". 2nd: There are so many tutorial vids on KZbin that demonstrates a better way to Sidekide. Search; GNT(GingerNinjaTrickster), Revolution of Kicking Vol. 1&2 and Taekwondo: Combat Tutorial Vol. 1/2/3.

[@andersanchez7751]

Sanda is a combat version of Kung Fu and Chinese Wrestling. Also if it wasn't, then why do people pit it against Muay Thai all the time? Also I'm pretty sure Jason Yee who has done it all his life knows what he's doing.

[@redouanuchiha3550]

most stupid comment

[@Arbaal]

There is a difference between the Sanda Sidekick and the Tae Kwon Do Sidekick, jeremy, as shown in the video.

[@allstarlord9110]

Lol if you are still alive after 8 years, you are still stupid. Sanda isn’t a martial art😂😂😂
