* The former circus acrobat Ty Lee in ''<nowiki>[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]</nowiki>'' makes use of cartwheels, leaps, reverse backflips, etc., to enable her to execute her close-range, effective [[Ki Attacks|chi-blocking (Kyusho-jitsu) techniques]]. Due to the show's strong sense of realism, her She Fu feats as well as her uncanny resemblance to the show's title character cause many in the [[Fanon|fandom]] to [[Epileptic Trees|rabidly speculate]] on the "possibility" that ''somehow'', she is part Air Nomad.
* The heroine of ''[[Cybersix]]''.
* ''[[Aeon Flux]]'', to the point that you start wondering whether she has any extra vertebrae. (which, given the [[Bio PunkBiopunk]] world she inhabits, is a plausible possibility.) At one point, another character gets similiar agility with a cybernetic removable vertebrae.
* ''[[Stripperella]]'' is prone to using sexy martial arts and "killer stripper moves" derived from her pole-dancing routine.
* Turanga Leela from ''[[Futurama]]'' frequently parodies this trope by showing the audience her martial-arts moves at the drop of a hat (doing a handstand to sneak over a subway turnstile, for instance).
