| Having good basics is just like
having a strong foundation, without a good foundation you
cannot build a strong stable building.
The purpose of this kick is to attack with your heel on the downwards
motion.
The action behind this kick is kicking with the ball of the foot. This
kick is best executed if your target is facing you front on, as you are
pushing forward with this kick.
This kick is executed using the instep of your foot, or the balls of
your feet. It is for side targets, when your opponent is not directly
facing you, but is facing you sideways, that is, with his/her torso facing
in a singular direction.
With this kick, you are kicking from the side, generally when your opponent
is facing you front on. When contact is made, it is the heel that goes
through your opponent, as this is the strongest part of your foot.
This is basically a side kick
whilst spinning in a 360 degree turn. The reason the
360 degree turn is included is because it adds power
and speed to the impact of the blow.
