Step 1
Begin in the basic krav maga neutral position prepared to both block and attack. Your feet should be about hip width apart with your dominant leg slightly back. Lift your back foot so that the tips of your toes are on the floor. Bend slightly at the knees and lift your fisted hands to shoulder level in defense position.

Step 2
Shift your weight onto your left foot as you pivot your front foot so that the toes point out. In the same motion, bring your back leg forward, bending your knee and drawing it up near your chest. Remember to keep your hands up in defense position throughout the entire round kick.

Step 3
Turn from the hips as you are pivoting and lifting the leg. Your shin should end up parallel to the ground with your knee pointed directly at the target. Point your toe and swing your foot first in towards your buttocks and then out to strike your target with the top of your foot.

Step 4
Bring your heel back to your buttocks, reverse the pivot and release your leg back to neutral position. Practice the krav maga round kick in slow motion until you have mastered every part of the move. Only once you have perfected every step should you begin working on force and speed.
