The Bian Tui Zhuan Ti is a roundhouse kick with a full twist. It can enhance the power of the roundhouse kick or allow you to quickly return to your combat stance if you miss your opponent. However, this is more of a showy kick, as it is difficult to apply effectively in a real fight. You should never turn your back completely to your opponent. Before attempting this technique, you should master the standard Sanda Bian Tui (roundhouse kick).

- After the kick, bring the knee of your kicking leg and your elbows slightly closer to your body’s axis of rotation. This will help you turn faster.

Trainer Advice: Roundhouse Kick Twist – Sanda
- Keep your eyes on your opponent as long as possible. During the twist, you lose sight of them briefly, which makes you vulnerable to counterattacks.
