Side Kick - 10/30/05 05:49 PM
Hi, Im a 14 year old who just started Tae Kwon Do a week ago.
Im having problems doing side kick correctly. I go from free sparing stance, and take my back foot and step forward with it, putting it behind my front foot, heel facing twords target. then i just lift my knee up and thrust. This reall hurts my groin and inside leg tendons whenever I try and kick higher than my waist.
Am I doing it wrong, and if so, how do I correct it. I also have the same problem with spin Kick.
