  • Kicks - 2nd Set

     

    3 kicks: Front, Side, Roundhouse

     


     

      

    Front Kick:

    The front kick can kick with the ball of foot, top of foot, or (less commonly) heel of foot.  Unless specifically specified otherwise, our school uses the ball of the foot, as they do above.

    From either Offense (fighting stance) or Defense (switch), when we do the front kick "by the numbers", we break the kick into five distinct counts:

    1. Turn
    2. Knee up
    3. Kick out (and kiyai)
    4. Pull back
    5. Step down

     

     

    Side Kick:

    By the numbers:
    (1) turn,
    (2) leg up,
    (3) kick and kiyai (extending the hip, and standing foot turns 180 degrees)
    (4) pull back
    (5) step down

     

     

     

      

    Round Kick:

     

    By the numbers:
    (1) turn,
    (2) leg up,
    (3) kick and kiyai (extending the hip, and standing foot turns 180 degrees)
    (4) pull back
    (5) step down

     

     (Moo Lim Do refers to this kick as the "Middle Kick")
