Hi Matt!
It is perfectly fine to move your hands to strategic positions while kicking but return to the starting position of hands in front of chest/elbows down between each kick! Hope that helps!

Keep Blasting!

"What is Jeet Kune Do (JKD)? Chinese martial art, definitely! It is a kind of Chinese martial art that does away with the distinction of branches, an art that rejects formality, an art that is liberated from tradition." __Bruce Lee
