Any of you guys teach this? For example, throwing the side kick up and under the guarded arms (knee facing ground - not a back kick).

Throwing thai style round kicks downward onto the neck or upward under the arms, downward onto the thigh etc.

How about throwing a reverse round kick? The knee faces outward and fans away from the body. Most people aren't used to seeing it. We practiced that kick in Hapkido, but I don't know if it is used in TKD.

Hi Tom Yum, yes we practice kicks like that sometimes. The kick you call reverse roundkick is called twisting kick in TKD.

We also work with kicks from odd angles.


Side kicks with both a up and down angle. Round kicks with up and down angles.

We also do the twist kick. "reverse roundkick"

There is a reverse roundkick but that is a totally different kick.


We also work on kicks from the wrong chamber. Round kick, crescent kicks, hook kicks from a front kick chamber.

Round kicks with the knee chambered towards the floor our out to the side of the body.


It makes it very hard to read the kicks.

ANYTHING you do should be practiced at different targets and angles!!
