Kick Combo!

This is a BoxAerobics pattern from www.turnstep.com. (pattern 5480)

I find the best way to teach kicks and to lead into kick combinations is by using a layering technique.

So to teach the front knee strike start with a heel dig forward (8), progress to pulling down with arms (8) then raise knee with arms (8) and finally release the "energy" to explode into the movement (8).

The other kicks like the front kick and roundhouse, use the same layering technique, so with front kick, raise knee (8) take leg out, then back, then down (8) slow movements repeat and then speed up and finally full movements and release energy 8-16 counts

A great kick combo that gets the class going crazy is:

You can also add this combo into a kata and design a whole sequence which really gets them going and add screams and shouts and you are set!!

Enjoy
