Au Batido Exercises/Combinations
- Tool to learn this move: aś batido while holding onto a partner's
hand. i.e. you grasp their right hand with yours, and do an aś batido to the left (careful not to kick them!)
- "Tucked" aś batido - batido using only your knee; don't
do the full kick (also helpful in learning the move)
- Esquiva + aś batido
- Aś + aś batido (same direction); aś batido-aś
- Quiexada, armada, or any spinning kick, then continue the spin
and do an AB
- Try to grab your leg and hold the pose in the middle of an AB
- AB, then switch and do an AB on the other side
- Two kinds of aś batido:
- The kind where you go up with your knee bent
and then do sort of a snap kick in front of you (picture of me on this page)
- The kind where you go up with your knee straight
and your leg "swings" up towards your head (picture of me on this page)
- S-dobrado into AB (really have to get your hips up in the s-dobrado)
- AB into s-dobrado
- AB while resting on your forearm, not standing on your hand
- Handspin into AB (challenging)
