Coach Notes:
Remember the kicking technique basics: Chamber leg and pivot. Extend leg to execute kick. Recoil leg back to bottom. Return to fight stance.
Pay attention and alternate kicking legs after each execution where noted to. This will help maintain balance for strength, coordination and skill.
When executing the push kick, imagine kicking a door down.
When bobbing and weaving, bend at your knees to duck under a punch. Do not fold at your hips.
When slipping, keep your shoulders rounded for additional protection around your chin.
When jump squatting, imagine an object thrown at your ankles and the jump squat is your defense to prevent contact.
When executing the straight back kick, you are executing that kick with your front leg and kicking straight back aiming for your attackers sternum or hips.
