What we’re about
Martial arts tricking, often simply referred to as "tricking," is a dynamic and visually striking discipline that blends elements of martial arts, gymnastics, and breakdancing. The focus is on performing acrobatic movements, kicks, flips, and twists in fluid, explosive sequences. Unlike traditional martial arts, tricking is less about combat and more about showcasing athleticism, creativity, and personal style.
Trickers often perform moves such as aerials, butterfly twists, 540 and 720 kicks, and variations of flips and spins. These movements are usually combined into complex combos, creating a flow that highlights the tricker's agility, balance, and coordination.
The origins of tricking can be traced back to martial arts demonstrations, where practitioners sought to add flair to their performances by incorporating acrobatics and exaggerated kicks. Over time, tricking evolved into a distinct discipline, with practitioners from various backgrounds, including taekwondo, capoeira, and breakdancing, contributing to its development.
Tricking is popular in the action sports and entertainment communities, often featured in movies, commercials, and live performances. The discipline has a global following, with practitioners constantly pushing the boundaries of what is physically possible.
