From the earliest silver screen karate fights in films like “The Man With The Golden Arm” to “Austin Powers” karate chop has long been a Hollywood symbol of the eastern martial arts. In this short video, World Champion John Graden shows exactly how the chop works and why it works so well.

Most martial artists, depending on the style of martial arts, must master various kicking techniques. Martial arts kicks offer martial arts competitors the ability to score on an opponent. Basic kicks such as the side kick, front kick and push kick are excellent for competition but are very practical for self-defense situations such as a street fight. Learning these basic kicks is fairly easy especially with martial arts tips from a black belt who teaches martial arts instructors how to teach. Learn how to do various martial arts kicks in this free video series featuring World Champion eighth-degree black belt and martial arts instructor John Graden. Graden demonstrates how to do a knee strike, how to do a front kick, how to do a side kick and how to practice these kicks on a kick shield along with self defense escapes, hand strikes for sport and self defense along with workout routines to help keep you motivated for exercise.

The chop has long been the staple image in Hollywood for the martial arts. Austin Powers called it a “Judo Chop” and Jethro Bodine thought it was like a pork chop that he could eat. In truth, as silly as it has been portrayed, the chop is indeed a powerful blow. Whether you are doing kung fu, karate, tae kwon do, kickboxing, maa, kenpo, ninjitsu, or wing chun, the chop is a powerful strike.
