This page provides details on the martial arts spinning crescent kick. The spinning crescent kick is a slightly more powerful version of a basic crescent kick given the momentum of the spin. However, this technique remains on the ground (unlike the jumping spinning crescent kick which involves a spin and jump). For information on other martial arts kicks (i.e. spinning hook kick), please visit Black Belt Wiki’s main kicking techniques page.
Martial arts kicks and all other martial arts techniques should only be practiced under the supervision of a trained martial arts instructor in order to prevent injuries and to ensure the proper technique is utilized. In addition, all martial arts techniques and training should be used safely and responsibly.
