What's up guys! I'm super excited to share that I'm working on the first Ninja Move in the Ninja Move series that will really make this community fun - and that's the Tornado Kick! I've been watching a few tutorials and I'm slowly getting the hang of the movements. The video below is my second attempt at this but I'm already feeling the speed and power this move can really unlock. It will take me a while to get the jump and speed fully without falling over so thats why I'm giving myself a month to really dig deep in this move. Here are the steps I've learned so far: 1. Turning on the front foot 2. Turning on front foot and lifting back foot across (try to bring that knee up!) 3. Turning front foot, lifting back foot, then jumping off front foot while landing on back foot. 4. Turning front foot, lifting back foot, then jumping off front foot and roundhouse kicking with it while landing on back foot. Of course - this is a very limited breakdown and I will go in more depth with a video of my own. For now here's a solid breakdown by Sensei Seth on Youtube on it. But for now definitely don't attempt a move like this cold, it requires mobility in our hips and stability in our joints for the jump and landing, so warm up and make sure your hips and knees are strong! So if you have stiff hips, check the video in the classroom on working hip mobility and do that first before attempting this!

Felt good today, did these at the end of my workout today and was definitely more challenging since I was already fatigued. But I’m loving them so far. How’s my form @Rajesh Nair

Tried out the Jefferson curls today that Raj recommended, and I love them! Definitely going to implement into my routine. Was doing some research on them and it’s clear to me now that these need to be a non negotiable in my regimen. Will keep you guys updated on the progress and results I see/feel! Thank you @Rajesh Nair
