How to Do a Butterfly Twist : Using a Punching Bag to Practice a Butterfly Kick

[KyosaNimGe]

Come on everyone this is a butterfly kick!! It's a very elegant and graceful technique and can be very effective if done properly! Taekwondo is a mix of grace and power!

[ajailnaix]

expert-villiage..... ummmm, you sure?

[KyosaNimGe]

I actually like that kick. I used to do that in mid air when i was younger and before i even started taekwondo. I can still do it. Very nicely done.

[jacksoncole79]

[omegagilgamesh]

Man, I was hoping it would show how to kick a near immovable object and still land on your feet. Oh well, it's still a useful tip.

[LoyalBrotherz817]

i can tell he aint no expert,

coz u aint suposed to lift your head backways, your back and head shoud be straight.

i dont like this guy coz he tryes too much to be a cool and very good fighter in this video. my master allways told me that a good fighter is allways calm and humble i dont feel the same with this guy.

[iownu1324]

@LoyalBrotherz817 its hard to be calm and humble when you 80,000 people watching you...

[LoyalBrotherz817]

@iownu1324 and why is that hard my friend? 

[iownu1324]

@LoyalBrotherz817 some people have stage fright.

[LoyalBrotherz817]

@iownu1324 well... If people have stage fright, then why make a video and post it on youtube?

Like i puke when i eat oisters, so why should i eat it and puke for no reasons? nobody pointed a gun to his head and said to him to make a video. :)

[iownu1324]

@LoyalBrotherz817 but to get rid of your fear you are suppose to face it. im not saying he has stage fight, im just saying some people dont act the same in front of an audience

[eliasmusiqcom]

great move for a dancing fight it's almost like square dancing ?? LOL

[TheAnimatorEqualizer]

Thumbs up if you thought he would kick it.

[animal100000]

Ha Ha so how many of you have been in a realfight ? because the more you know the beter it is!

[IrishLuck]

In case you start a fight twelve feet beside your opponent...

[eaglefeather1234]

sooooo gay

[iniys]

so do you run up and do a spin off your enemys shoulders? ok i'ma kick ass now... pfft

[SoilyOily]

I think you're suppose to end this move with "jazz hands"

[samulokoo]

gay

[TheRoldgold]

If someone tried that on me, I'd just grab onto their pant leg.

[MrSupertwo]

expert village sucks balls

[ThaisBlackXboxLive]

You dumb people this is the way to PRACTICE it.

It looks gay, ofcourse it does. But this isn't the real kick. Just a way for beginners to practice it.

[kartog22]

Ok?



[TheMasterTickler]

Good Video!!!!!!

[MajinAbu]

wheres the twist?...

[Hackman95]

lol like the puppet shows...they always bash little people those pussys

[Shadowsghost]

there are a lot of BOBs in the back, probably a BOB reunion

[swatboy50]

@Shadowsghost hahaha u made my day xD

[WastedDNA]

@Shadowsghost LOOOL yea i see that epic :p

[maganashi]

and this has no practical application, pretty though.

[slice135]

I thought you were gonna butterfly kick his face......bummer -_-

[The1stRalph]

Mr Bob aint lookin to happy today.

[exousia123]

this is pathetic..what a fag

[SlipknotTribute]

@exousia123

I'd much rather be a pathetic fag than a pathetic e-thug. I wonder if this guy agrees?

[SlipknotTribute]

@exousia123

Point in case, bud. Point in case.

[SquatNshit]

super gay

[TheMachtY]

totaly gay trick !

[KingBobertron]

this is a real good ballet technique

[Iamawesomeo666]

He does looks like he is doing ballet.

[WastedDNA]

@KingBobertron i dont think people that came for this video are into ballet -_- LOL

[TimeDrained]

in taekwondo it gives points, a kick to the face.. maybe knockout.. its a sport.

[Myke626]

if you hit someone in the groin then you are a little girl. Unless the odds are incredibly stacked against you like there are more than one guy or they have a weapon. Other than that dont be a bitch.

[xTylerDurden90x]

@Myke626 "a little girl" ??? this is real life,not a sport,if somebody's attacking you in real life you don't give a fuck about "being a macho", its not a musical, you poke his eyes,hit him in the balls,slap his ears deaf,I mean really, its your ass or his ass,he shouldnt attack you in the first place,unless you are a violent person and you worry about getting kicked in the balls while being a.."man"??

CIA,mossad, they all fight "dirty" because its no game,its not a show,its fucking real life

[waterswind]

you dont have to use bob you can use steve if you prefer

[anirudhkrishnamani]

why do you say "okay?" so many times?

[janjudas]

Funny watching the comments.....Seems ignorance is kinda local..

[gonnaflynow707]

Good tutorial! It's helpful for us beginners.

If you already know how to do this then why are you watching this?

[mat2th]

PRETTY DUMB TRANNING a guy told me how to do it ,showed me, and i did, no one need a bob doll this jump is one of the easers

[iApna]

If this video was an attempt to admit your gay and come out of the closet - You have demonstrated that successfully congrats!!

This video should have been called the Jumping Fairy Twist.

[buddoyr]

LOOLz 1:22 look at his face looks funniii

[patrickwise06]

what practicality does this have

[brayden12345]

@patrickwise06 what practicality does a backflip have?

[waterswind]

@brayden12345 some arm locks and choke holds can be gotten out of or maneuvered into a better position with a backflip or roll but then again there are easier and more practical things than that socially a backflip is a handy tool to have :)

[Happyanand69]

Zero percent. Back flips only endanger yourself since you are in the air and have no control for a few seconds. A split second is all someone needs to kick you.

These butterfly kicks are just as useless since you're trapped in the motion and your aim is not 100%. You can scrap almost any kick above the waist if you're dealing with a serious fighter. This is the truth. Also, don't look at MMA to prove things. If you can't hit someone in the groin or throat = not realistic.

[brayden12345]

@Happyanand69 okay, none of you kids understood what my comment meant. what i was trying to say is... it's a trick. people learn a backflip so that they can do a cool trick, people do this because its a.... cool trick! and by doing so we also learn alot about balance and co-ordination. sure... you could potentially use this trick somehow, but that is not the purpose. btw, body and head kicks are very effective and with a good enough application, it can work on even the best fighters.

[Happyanand69]

Head kicks are a high risk and not good for a realistic streetfight. It looks good but it's not a smart way to fight. You can lose your balance and fall. Your opponent can step in and then you will be stuck in a long useless motion while your opponent has the right distance to do anything to your groin.

Experienced fighters love when their opponents try showing off their kicks. One punch to the throat will do the same damage (sometimes even more) and is far more reliable.

[brayden12345]

@Happyanand69 I'm really not gunna keep arguing with you... because its pointless. but i'll just say that the type of "experienced fighters" you talk about that are all heavenly amazing, are very very rare. And a person who actually knows how to throw a kick will not likely lose their balance, and they will be able to keep their distance. sure a punch to the throat will obviously do damage, but a perfect roundhouse kick to the jaw will shatter it and leave your opponent completely incapacitated

[Happyanand69]

@brayden12345:''Fast hands, slow legs'' is an expression kung fu practitioners use in China. And I tend to agree. But it's a widely known fact that the west is mesmerized with high kicks and I will let you in that illusion.

[jimmy1993dragonforce]

@brayden12345 a flash kick could probly kill someone. and even if you miss you land back in your origional stance (flash kick = backflip with kick. k :D)

[threeyears]

@jimmy1993dragonforce

A flash kick could kill someone? Righto then buddy, let's see you actually hit someone in a fight with a flash for starters, and then we'll see how much power it has. You do realize that since you have no support on the ground that once your kick connects, or they block it, it's going to kill your rotation and you'll fall the fuck down, right?

[34Cyberboy]

i like to do left leg

[witegetobro]

wow what a dumb kick.

[Smokeystyle]

this is actually a great kick

mostly used for demonstrating form and and height in wushu tournaments and such.

this guy isnt so great at doing b-kick so just dont mind him

[vockla]

You do not need a punching bug to do this. In ballet studios girls practice this move using those bars attached to the wall. You can even do it holding a chair. And this is not for fighting, it is just a cool graceful move, like the back flip or sommersault. I cannot believe how someone thought of this as a "kick".

[sk8erboy818]

wtf is that shit so gay its more like bale hahahaha xd

[felipalbo]

can u really land that kick???

[Elricaxe]

Violence, pointless No1 Wins

Diplomacy is where it's at children

[synkronyk]

no. That's very wrong. diplomacy is of no use if your life is threatened.

[fullfreydog]

Boxing, pointless. No range.

Guns are where it's at children.

[br1malhpm]

pointless kick, no power. boxings where its at kids

[shenlong1000000]

his movements looks FAG

[MrXTAKOx]

mr bob lol good tut

[sunnyofdoom]

he can kiss mr. bob in the air ^^

[naveedisapimp]

im not a big fan of TKD.

[shaogalda]

some moves in martial arts like this acrobatic kick are just trained to improve the coordination and the equilibre. if you can do this kind of stuff, maybe you are not going to use it in a real situation but you will do better the easier moves like kicking punching and even moving more fluid. (sry about my bad english hehe)

[vgrzen34]

eh, i learned it better doing it onto a mat

[Redsiix]

I believe i've seen that same move done in a ballet studio. But the chicks there did it a little bit better ^_^

[freedomfire21]

What gym is this it looks awesom if you could tell me the city state or a number to call anyone

[SasukeChidory1]

wushu rulzz :P

[leochidori99]

that woman wushu in expert village a good than u.hahahaah

[RobbyRushTV]

TKD Is A Sport, Nothing More.

[uckushtar]

Certain styles of TKD is sport. Not all. At our TKD dojo we don't do any of these fancy kicks that have no purpose, and we actually know how to punch too :O yeah surprised right? lol

[brayden12345]

you're talking right outa your ass buddy.

[RobbyRushTV]

TKD is a SPORT.

[narkaleptick]

no, point sparing is a sport tkd as you call it is a martial art

[Smokeystyle]

this is actuall very useful

dumb idiots r like blah blah b-kick sucks its useless for a fight.

it can be applied in a fight at the right time.

but its mostly for visual purposes and tournaments

[tallgrass115]

I take Taekwondo, and really, most of what we do is kicks. The goal is to kick faster than someone can punch. During a tournament, one of my friends, who is a black belt, nailed over ten kicks to the other guy's head.

Plus, it feels wrong to punch someone in the balls. It's better to just kick them there...

[dohboiii]

but kicking with all that speed makes the kicks realllly lack in power

i like Muay Thai, they can kick quite fast, but the difference here is that they throw most of their body weight into the kicks making them extremely powerful

[tallgrass115]

@dohboiii I think that's because Muay Thai's kicks are kept close to the body, and don't usually run the risk of exposing the kicker.

In Taekwondo, though, if you learn the proper form and technique, it can make the kicks that much more powerful. Because of the nature of the faster kicks, it's not as strong as a knee, but it's definitely got longer range, and it's stronger than a punch.

(Sorry, for replying so late, btw.)

[bredisb]

Hahah useful?C'mon man ,i would take you down immediately and gnp your ass.

[Smokeystyle]

please shut up,

you and i both know you dont know any martial arts bredisb.

i said this tutorial is useful btw,

the kick?

well this kick isnt the most effective but that doesnt mean it cant hit.

you should at least know something about martial arts before saying that.

[bredisb]

I trained kickboxing ,i am a red belt in this shitty taekwondo, trained muay thai for years.Now I train powerlifting and 100 m sprint.

[Anch0rOwnYou]

@Smokeystyle totally true but i did 2 540 kicks and then at the end of my form i threw in a butterfly kick but i only got 3 rd place =-[ not bad for my first competition ever though lol

[DCOME94]

@Smokeystyle actually this is completly useless

[MegaPokerMon]

@DCOME94 well it looks kinda coool...Id kind be afraid that if i actually successfully landed it I might full flat on my face...but if you were at a Star Wars Comicon you might be able to dress up like Darth Maul and impress the geek chicks...

[Smokeystyle]

@DCOME94

its not ment for fighting :)

any true martial artist knows some techniques arent to be used for self defence, many martial arts dont focus on self defence either, a popular myth. theres alot more to martial arts than killing your opponent.

[Mitzsuguchi]

fuck what people think, these comments are absolutely ridiculous. Great technique on practicing butterfly, I know a lot of students have trouble learning it, but this is a great take on how to perform it. Thanks a lot for the video. I appreciate it. Once again, fuck all of the haters.

[ichigo449]

i agree fuck all haters and this REALLY helped me get it now i'm on the b twist

[funkyrocker888]

Where do I find a short little kid to prop off when I feel like prancing around like a fairy?

[redsamuraidragon]

is it just me or should this dudes head be alot lower to the ground to go into a twist??

[yardkyle]

no it isn't just you. if you want to get good air with this trick you have to start really low with your upper body and throw it into the air as you jump...

[redsamuraidragon]

thx. I was just trying to be tactful while saying it.. but oh well.. ;)

[halamcheng]

the twist ????

[357893]

yeah thats all mighty fine and shit but i bet you cant put a fruit pastel in your mouth without chewing it =p

[croop101]

Guys a butterfly kick is a wushu technic! wushu is no real fighting martial art,but a technic to show

[v0lc0mst0n3]

wtf is this ballet?

[Evallandercomingsoon]

martial arts, you dumbass

[v0lc0mst0n3]

wow you must be new to this whole sarcasim thing ==

[Evallandercomingsoon]

that was sarcasm?

sorry, but I couldn't tell seeing as it was such a rediculous comment, dumbass

[100percentserious]

if you feel tired plz dont talk and dont move

[KillaCam97]

damn man, you gay.

[teddysands96]

Its against god and to be honest why would you want to be a fag?

[heedup]

ain't no god and if there was why would god care who you get it on with?

[teddysands96]

God made us and i dont know about you but i didnt "evolve" from a dirty mongrel chimp. Being gay is unnatural and fucking disgusting. Man +woman= Baby

Man+Man=nothing but a shitty dick . the world has gone crazy we need hitler to come back and sort all of these faggots out!

[awatemonosan]

Judge Not Lest Ye Be Judged.

Jesus is the only one who can judge whether someone is living in sin.

I find it disturbing that Jesus died for our sins and that Christians propagate hate even though that is DIRECTLY against the Jesus's teachings.

[kinuta]

fag = cigarette

faggot = bundle of sticks.

=]

[teddysands96]

No no no youve got it all wrong

Fag=You

[kinuta]

go play hide and go fuck yourself.

(if you reply to this, you're a homosexual.)

[reddeadromanced]

??? the army doesnt want me to know that,

i guess thats a good thing

[TrickOStaz]

ROFLLLLLLLL this fuken made me laugh.

i thought it was gonna be a tough kick LOL

[ILuv2troll]

Yeah, it's called a butterfly kick..... Nothing with butterflies in it is combat effective.

[nomilkforsanta]

huh?

[LLiimmzz]

GAY

[6laukausta]

GAY

[tyronskee]

wtf dude i didnt say thats gay

somewhone hacked me!

[Killer0274]

soz about that lol

[tyronskee]

that so gay!

[sephiroth87932]

u think its gay because you can't do that show some respect to those who actually want to learn under his teachings and to those practicing this

[nomilkforsanta]

jump kids do not work in the street.

so jump kicks = dancing

dancing = gay

so this video = gay

[Hobospaz]

complaining = fag

so you = fag

[nomilkforsanta]

complaining = logical observations about something wrong. Man complained about being cold, and they worked on fire...

you = no education

[Briocolli]

PWN3D!

[Hobospaz]

oh yeah! well, you = ..... i can't think of anything to say, damn you and you're good come backs!

[carvul1]

this was pretty gay indeed..

[KyubiFreak]

u mean their argument or the vid?.... well i agree either way

[LLiimmzz]

true

[cubetacular4cake]

How come he didn't actually show us the b-kick without the punching bag, then the b-twist...? After all...the title does say: How to do a butterfly twist (then the rest of the title here)

[sephiroth87932]

no he broke down the steps of the b kick so you can easily learn it instead of showing you everything at once because if you needed to look at something again you'd have to w8 until the whole video loads and the thing that says "How to Do a Butterfly Twist" thats the objective of this teaching and the rest is what part he willl be teaching you to do the btwist

[demolitionman42]

wtf is this ballet

[shirangi12]

fag

[aisukurimusandoichi]

BAAAAAAAAD idea..... If you're a wushu athelete then NEVER practice like this, it promotes terrible form.

uk. you tube. com/ watch?v=geix2cdeU90

thats a much better tutorial

[AdamSwaluk]

Good idea!

Good way to get a feel for the move.

[volleymartns]

fag

[zim911]

wow awesome :)

[AmadeusMetalParkour]

actually I was thinking he would kick mr bob in the face with the b-kick,lol

[batmanrobin]

you needa work on your lower back flexibility

[RootBeer7623]

nice teaching, lol, mr. bob

[lolitsZach]

hey commenters, learn to spell
