Hi! In this section, we're going to go over the side kick and shuffle sidekick, in Kick Boxing. The side kick, for the side kick, we're going to be on our side. And we're going to bring up, our knee and kick out. And when we're kicking, we're kicking mostly with our heel. Not with our toe. A variation on that is the shuffle sidekick. It's the same kick but has a little bit more power. We're going to start with our legs, shoulder width apart. We're going to shuffle in, bring up our knee and kick. So once again, legs, shoulder width apart. Shuffle in and kick. So now we're going to demonstrate that with the kick pad. And Chris is going to show it to you in slow motion, first. And then a little bit quicker. And as we're doing the side kick, we want to remember to keep our gravity centered. By keeping our arms up and our elbows in. So as we kick, we may come down a little bit. But we don't want our elbows to fly out. The more your arms open up, the more you lose your center of gravity. And having a good balance is very important to a good kick. So one more time, we're going to do that shuffle sidekick. And that is how we practice it.
