Eagle Strike – Martial Arts Technique

This page provides details for the martial arts “Eagle Strike” technique. This is where a martial artist puts all of his/her finger tips together with the hand facing down, moves the arm upwards and strikes the target with the top of the wrist. For information on other martial arts punches & strikes, please visit Black Belt Wiki’s main Punches & Strikes section.

This is a very powerful technique and is often used against an opponent’s jaw. However, this strike can also result in a broken wrist. However, be aware that this is not the same as the “Eagle Claw” technique used in Kung Fu.

Martial arts punches & strikes and all other martial arts techniques should only be practiced under the supervision of a trained martial arts instructor.
