This week is all about kicking with the lead leg. Kicks should be done from various distances and at various speeds in order to develop ability and confidence in their versatility.
Today I’m demonstrating the full step slide in kicks of Kisae Kempo’s Yellow Belt. There are four and I perform them slowly then fast. First I slide in a full step from a Left Forward Bow, then from a Right Forward Bow.
The first three kicks are snapping kicks using the top of the foot to attack with. These kicks are strong and quick but there can be real danger in attacking with the top of the foot too. The last of the kicks is a classic thrusting side kick with the edge of the heel.
All the kicks today are done to the groin height.
Without prejudice
