1. Jab: use the leading hand (the hand in front) to punch straight, keep the wrist straight, and rotate the fist downward when contacting.

2. Cross with the back hand: turn from the hip first, then swing with the back hand, palm down, and keep the wrist straight.

3. Hook : the hook is thrown with the arm at a 90 degree angle (just like you are holding a coffee cup). Keep your thumb and wrist straight.

4. Upper cut: as a beginner, press the upper cut palm upward to the navel level, and rotate the buttocks with each fist.

Basic kicking

1. Front kick: lift the knee to the chest and kick the bag with the sole of the foot. Then, return the leg to its original position.

2. swing kick : step out with the front leg and open the hips. Tap on the shin or instep of the hind leg to pack, then put the leg back in its original position. Put everything together.
