TIPS
1. The important part
of your stance is to be sure that the leg you will kick with
is in the back.
2. Return to your
fighting stance. It is vitally important to return to a good
fighting stance
and keep your body protected from falling.
3. Upon deciding to
carry out a flying kick, start by pulling off the flying aspect
of it.
4. Use your legs to
jump-start your flight.
5. In theory, your
flight should help you kick using both legs at one go.
6. If you are right
foot dominant, train your left leg more. It will subconsciously
train your right leg as well, and give you a balanced attack.
7. To get your kick even higher, bring your back leg up higher before you
jump.
8. Do not use this in any situation where your life is in danger.
9. Always remember to
do some stretching exercises before to prevent muscle
tension or strain.
