Martial Arts isn’t fun. This would never work. I did this in the streets and I died.
RIP
Yeah, always go for da baahdy on da streetz.
For da street, it is better if you add couple of trolley wells to your shinguard 😂

Sensei Seth and Icy Mike are like Ryu and Ken - the later years.
Nah. Ken from Barbie looks nothing like mike.
I’m joking. 😂
😂😂😂
Except "Ken's" long hair comes from his face instead his head 😏
@@SenseiSeth next time give him the hadoken. Learn him a thing or two.
wait, which one is which?
Sensei Seth's kicks are scary. I can't imagine the amount of damage of a full force kick with those huge legs.
Yeah we are lucky he is a good guy
Lol thanks? 😂
This is why martial arts is considered an art it’s the ultimate form of body expression, I really love
this video, and yes martial arts should be fun. OSU!
👏👏👏
Well I mean body expression with the intent of violence haha. I would say Gymnastics (and tumbling in general) is also up there, and it's why I train both Martial Art's and Gymnastics, it gives you so many ways to move. This was Ido Portal's thing before he went all culty, and if you watch his older videos the way that training like this allows you to move is just incredible.
That low sweep looked super cool. The low tornado kick is pretty high percentage when in range. I landed that in the challenge fight I had earlier this year. The guy who challenged me to an MMA fight was not very experienced, so I wanted to beat him without knocking him out... I wanted to try to pull off a tornado kick in the fight and taking one to the head can be dangerous, so I aimed it at his leg:)
Oh my god that hurts like shit as well
Nice composure avoiding hurting the guy, good for you
@@cesaralvesdemoraes3187 Thanks, I finished with a kimura and we shook hands afterwards. If you're curious about the fight, there's 2 videos of it on my channel.
This is the ultimate “We’re throwin’ spinning shit now?”
*I AM THE SPINNING SHIT NOW*
At 5:17where my foot skids around I cracked UP 😂
@Ap0llyon92 Mike was a police officer. Working to detain people daily probably teaches you something along with the training already given. Just watch more of his shit you'll find out
Ap0llyon92 lmao
Ap0llyon92 you have every opportunity to not watch 👍
@Ap0llyon92 You will never "live another day" because of watching ANY video. You can't learn to protect yourself on the internet, these videos are meant to supplement training with a coach, in-person! In a real-life situation, you will ultimately fall to your training... or lack thereof.
Ap0llyon92 im not trying to sound like a jerk, im just offering some perspective. You can’t ever be 100% safe ever. No matter what you practice. Learning to defend yourself obviously helps. And learning martial arts techniques soley from the internet might help. They will help you if you are already a martial artist and you apply the sparring tips when you spar. You can watch conor mcgreggor knock people out all day but that wont make you a knockout artist
i cant wait til gyms open, itching to roll and spar again
Best lesson I've learned from Icy Mike so far, "if it works, it isn't wrong". Feel like the sweep into tornado and the universal body shove takedown fit into this pretty well.
8:20 HEMA has that too 😉
8:30: that even exists in medieval fighting manuals, so that's how old it is!
Jumping tornado leg kick. Awesome.
seth straight up looks like like an IRL fighting game character with these long ass tree trunk legs whirling through the air
I’m blushing
This is currently my favorite bro-mance😂
😂
@@SenseiSeth Did you and Sweet T/ Wonderboy set up a spar time yet? I'd like to watch you and Sweet T spar around and have some fun.
Chen style Tai Chi also claims that take down. I always enjoy interactions between you and Sensei Seth. Y'all take care!
Yep. That’s a classic Lazy about tying coat application.
These videos are amazing man every time I see a new one I get ecstatic man! Always something awesome and helpful. Thank you Mike and thank you Seth you guys are a blessing.
Dillon Kelley 🙏🙏
I like this, I think the best counter would probably be a well timed side kick to the ass/ hip after the sweep, so watch for that.
This is definitely a move to commit to once or fake around afterwards, i think if you drill the technique alot your chance of getting sidekicked goes to about 10%? For a fancy move this is actually pretty good
I really like these collaboration videos like this. 1. With two experienced individuals it gets the point across faster for production value. 2. It shows that, Here is two individuals who are high level and are trainers, yet still are open to and able to keep learning. Many people think that once someone gets to the level of being an instructor that they have it all figured out and know it all. ( If anyone reads this and has an insutrctor that thinks or says this, Run. They are probably teaching Aikido). There is always something to learn as you go along your way.
Really cool technique. Maybe a rear kick off the initial sweep would work too! It’d probably come out faster, so if you throw the butterfly kick first maybe you could condition someone to expect it & catch ‘em off guard
The way I was taught to do this by my friend (who was into competitive MMA at the time and so it needed to be quick and clean) was to make the setup a low kick and then the damaging kick as basically any spinning/turning kick you want. From this position you can throw a turning sidekick, a spinning hook kick, a tornado kick, whatever you want really so long as you know how to control body movement properly.
Basically you condition the low kick, throw a few out from a distance (step in low kick) then make to do the same but intentionally follow through before you hit, then you throw out the turning sidekick/spinning back kick. This works even better if they try to check, because a spinning back kick will either throw them off balance or go right through their guard while they already have their weight on one leg. You can adapt this into a hook kick or tornado kick depending on the distance, at a closer range a back kick is generally going to be better though because you can still get power. A hook kick works really well if you bring their guard down with midsection kicks, and a tornado kick works will to give you basically a smorgasbord of targets depending on how you've been conditioning them (you can still throw a sweep, head kick, or body kick from the tornado spin). For the spinning hook kick you have to both be really good at hook kicks and also judging distance/space, I'm pretty sure I've seen Edson Barboza do this, but he has godlike spinning hook kicks.
Definitely something to try in sparring, I wouldn't willingly turn my back without properly conditioning the opponent first though haha.
The point in making Martial Arts into FUN so you are more likely to do it == TY for that, its an eye opener, very valid statement, ty ty !
I love how you make sparring fun.
8:13 Very popular takedown taught for Tai Chi applications too, called “Flying Diagonally”
Well it is only natural to retreat when you see mortal combat style moves
At my school we call that the "spinning hook, spinning iron broom" but you can apply many kicks to it, we are just initially taught it as a low hook into a crescent kick or iron broom, depending on the opponents position
I learned that takedown in Mantis Kung Fu. First person to use it on me successfully was a Kajukenbo blackbelt. Super vid. I would simply check the sweeping leg today...stops the whole show with the person sitting down.
Nice video once again
This version is certainly a lot cooler and I’ll definitely be practicing. I come from a tkd background so I’m very use to the roundhouse into a tornado combo
People start spinning stuff and I somehow stand still and watch what they're doing instead of reacting to it. That hypnotic facet is very overlooked in self defense scenarios :)
It's fun and it develops attributes, Icey Mike.
Tip for that tornado kick that might help is to turn the knee out ward, turning the knee out as you bring it up just opens your hips more the same way turning your foot does
Thanks guys
Sensei Seth is a legitimately frightening human.
jesusthroughmary 😘😘
Can't wait to spar again..
Thank's for the sweet videos :)
Here’s the rundown, I’m 45 and have a physical job. My day starts at 4:30AM. Can you do a 20 min morning stretch video? Not looking to do yoga, just something to get my body ready for the day
I'm the worst at stretching. I would find like a 20 minute low impact body weight routine. Find 3 you like and do them m-w-f
Best outro ever
What if, when using that move, before throwing the last kick, you switch and kick with the opposite leg. Try that one. Or use the same leg, but reverse roundhouse so you end up kicking the other side of their face.
Thinking about it makes me anxious to get to the gym to try it. Lol. I practice regular tornado type kicks already.
Im trying this tonight in class too haha
I'm trying this in Taekwondo sparring this week.
That's one bad ass kick
Truth
Will try it in my next sparring
Hey Mike, great video.. been watching you for a while now so I’m not sure how I missed this one.. anyway.. what about a back kick/spinning sidekick from that position?
That used to be one of my favorite takedowns in capoeira.
Loved the sensei Seth style outro
😂😂😂😂
Fun fact, that throw your saying every martial art claims even shows up in some of the manuscripts that HEMA practitioners study
Seth was in good shape
My masters
👏
Well, since I already stole the Bizarro punch from you, I might as well steal this too.
I think I might buy a mat to learn this kick
best ending 10/10
The kick is form ancient Okinawa karate called... dope...
Fa-sho
Very cool shit and nice video once angain 👌🏻
Its definitely fun and is enjoyable cardio as well
Hey Mike,in Judo, that last takedown is done a little bit different, instead of pushing to the stomach, you kinda grab the legs and pull.
I kinda suck at remembering technique names,but i think it's called sukui nage(spoon throw or something like that) it's cuttently illegal(some jackass decided that touching the legs should be illegal in competition), so some use the one you showed,but it isn't very popular
1:41 bruhh in dyin
When I do tornadoes I don't really kick but I use it as a front to just put my whole body weight behind my shin and use like a shove
I think I saw Seth mouth "F*** capoeira " at the end
I think the scientific name for this kick is “the spinny fucker that hurts if it lands”
I've watched this video multiple times and i'm curious if you could use this effectively to multiply the power of other attacks? In a sense picking up the foot in that first movement so it acts as more of a weight to start the momentum. Then trying to combine it other techniques. Like instead of a leg kick a front kick, or a rear hand strike like a straight or an overhand. You have to make them respect that low kick first but once they do i feel this can set up some very unorthodox and unexpected shots.
The shadow kick.
I'm glad Mike started posting a lot again I was afraid I was going to have to start watching Master Wong again 😂
Ive posted every wednesday and sunday for 2 years.
@@hard2hurt sorry I guess during quarantine thing it seems like everyone's been posting less
Did I hear Mike say *SIDE KICK*? 😨
will it work in the street, will it not, ? Might work for one guy and not the next, BUT, it makes you work the body, makes you work the mind. Sometimes stuff happens so fast that your body does stuff your not even aware of. That said, rear leg front sweep, and we'll say right leg just to keep track. Instead of going all the way around bring the right leg back up for a hook kick. Even the quick front leg sweep can be brought up for the hook. Scored me lots of points . But once again the more you can make them defend / move away the harder for them to think of countering.
Interesting
What's your opinion of the knee to the back of kneck hold. The one taught to U.S police by the Israelis?
U da best
this is the berimbolo of leg kicks....also pull donkey guard!
Sweepnado
Video idea: How to handle someone who tries "play fighting"/ shadow boxing with you
Hmm that is actually a very interesting idea.
Mike, that's exactly what I was thinking. Stay out of my head.
Martial arts is indeed fun from a sport/fitness perspective. On the side, martial arts is not considered fun and games anymore once we're outside of the dojo/gym where it should be destructive if we visualize martial art as weapon to defend or hurt instead of visualize it as a sport.
Wouldn’t a cart wheel kick work as well with sweeping the leg kick
I need to crescent kick to get a tornado kick to the head, also. I miss my twenties. And my thirties.
Aye ima sensei 😎😂
lol hey Seth
@@SenseiSeth Oh dang it's me😂 Hi Seth😎👌
Its called a tatsumaki, and it's from stret fighter.
Is back spinning kick directly into a tornado kick without putting your legs down, too airborn and flimsy? I can do one, but feel like it's impractical.
Feels more like a setup for the tornado kick, kinda like the rear leg side kick to spinning hook or side kick
You are wrong this is a taichi special 8:51 😂
I want to see you two fight
wrong video to comment on but ion think I said it on the cheat step video but the cheat step is just how I've always done it lol
Everyone beat me to the Diaz spinning comment but...
Oh, we're throwin' spinnin shit now?
kick name: twin moon
Damn y'all making me cry right now. My MA gym closed because the coach couldn't pay the bills
That’s tough..
Aikido's the most fun.
It’s called the spiny Jenny mini spaghetti
also more creativity in your fighting makes it harder for your opponent to read you
People forget that martial arts is supposed to be fun. Great vid! BTW, that takedown is from Silat not any of those "other" martial arts lol
The takedown is so common, it is part of many martial arts. But yeah, especially in Silat and Capoeira it may be more usual because it fits so well into the tactics of their stand up game.
It’s def in Karate
And Muay Thai
@@SenseiSeth and @Metrolina Martial Arts: Yes, you can find this takedown in Karate (especially in Kata) in Muay Thai, but almost in every fighting style, because it is just nothing else than "pushing someone over the leg" and a "no-brainer". I am pretty sure you may find this even in ancient greek, egyptian, african or whatever fighting styles, not connected to eastasian styles.
If you let fight some elementary school kids, who have never heard of any martial art, over peanut butter sandwiches for a week, they will sooner or later come up with this kind of takedown. Pushing someone over your own leg to get him off balance is no high science. (Please, do not let fight children over peanut butter sandwiches. This was just an example)
It’s Muay Thai takedown used all the time,
This is nice and all, but I wanted a video for how to walk with a WWE strut like IcyMike. Walking that way in Wal-Mart displays confidence and decreases the likelihood of getting attacked.
I call it the flippy spinny shit
Vingativa
The kick is a180 Pop kick
8:17 Aikido claims that too!
Its a capra or something like that
Every martial arts claims this takedown... But really it's Taichi let's be honest. :D
If u did this in competition (point scoring you’d get a side kick to the face) you did this on the street it’d be a knee to the face I’ve studied martial arts for 20 years (I’m 38) sikaran karate,fudoshin ryu and taekwondo I’ve had a Australian 1st place ranking national all styles and 12 time Victorian champion golden cobra in no scenario would this work my first sparring lesson I attempted the spinning sweep kick from no retreat no surrender movie (drop to one knee spin the opposite way on the ball of your foot and sweep) that was only one spin I got kicked in the head no one in their right mind is gonna wait 2 spins
Lol... so how do you explain all the times that people actually did this and didn't get a sidekick to the face? How is that possible?
hard2hurt very easily no one would be stupid enough co-operation non real situation EDIT: what type of martial arts instructor can’t kick above the waist I haven’t trained for 4 years and I can still do it
Hmm, did you just correct your sensei on a move he taught you 🤔
Yes.
hard2hurt interesting 🧐
I don’t see much of this in MMA fights I watch. That’s the ultimate truth test. If something g is effective people will use it. If it’s not effective people won’t use it.
Although there is alot of truth to that, MMa isn't at it's final form.., something "doesn't work in mma" until it does. The front kick to the face used to "not work", calf kicks weren't a thing a while back, nor was point style karate/hands down style to be excused EVER.
I mean.., ryo chonan once pulled off a frickin flying scissor heelhook,.
So i get what you're saying, and you're right to a large degree., but just trust me when i say that there will be more moves proven to be effective (if timed and executed properly) in high lvl mma, it's just not that easy to predict beforehand.
I mean., who in the world would have guessed that dipping and throwing a reverse overhand elbow would k.o. the Korean Zombie?(vs Yair rodriguez..amazing fight)
You also don't see head stomps in MMA but them bitches sure do work perfectly.
Wobbe Fair enough. For sure, all sports are always evolving. Although it seems that fancy and flashy stuff rarely seems to “pass the test”. But who knows. The octogenarian is the ultimate proving ground. That’s what makes it cool. Everyone and their dog is all about teaching this or that. Well, put it to the test, homie. Everything looks cool in slow motion against someone not fighting back.
Ha, auto correct gave me octogenarian for octagon. 😂
biohazard724 You don’t see bead stomps because they are against the rules. Why? Because they work. Are these spinning kicks against the rules?
I thought you were a gobby channel!
But would it work on, let's say..someone holding a riot shield 🤔
Yes. Particularly the leg kick version. Just don't kick to the shield side.
There's a pic circulating online about a dude in a straw hat folding a shield in half with something like this
First!!
I like calling it spinny shit
Amazing how these Walter Mitty's get successful channels 🤦♂️
Yeah it's nuts how years of consistent hard work yields success. There's no rhyme or reason to it!
