Yang Style Tajiquan kicking Techniques

[Ba-men]

I was surfing around and saw this and went Oh..I know this...


Weird i found these guys doing this stuff.
The techniques are very Yang style Taijiquan. Notice the target locations, notice the hand techniques.. Applications straight out of the form.

enjoy.

I was looking at the angles of attack and the method of how they cut off or into the incoming kick. The jewel is in the simplicity and effectiveness of the technique. That methodology is straight up Yang she Taijiquan ally. I've believe Xingyiquan has a similar technique.

If its in basic Karate and TDK cool.... I wasn't aware of it. Having practiced Hapkido (which has an extensive kicking repertoire) this type of interception was taught to me while studying it.
