And that is a correctly done back kick! All glutes and hamstring- sighted w one eye(if you're sighting it w both eyes, your hips aren't correct, it's a side kick- unless you're an owl) toes down.... Well done!

I've been doing this on the heavy bag: my speed, power and accuracy have shot up. Thanks yet again John. Namaste x

Shotgun kick, you can also do it off the lead foot, shuffling in and shotgunning with a knee bent, it goes under the guard and into the gut, hopefully liver or solar plexus if you’re lucky

Thank yu for keeping the techniques simple, basic, to - the - point & easy to understand...so many other videos from other instructors are to complicated...many thanks Sir...

[kadolphin]

DAMNN that's clean!
Keep going ❤

[carltaylor]

Now that's how you do it. Proper technique at its finest. Short, direct and to the point. With balance, control, focus, speed and spontaneity.

Thank you for the videos and inspiration. You very kindly answered my question about taking up karate as a 40+ year old lady on the chubby side. I’m several weeks into my first belt now and throughly enjoying it. Thank you!

Clean, precise, strong. Also something that a lot of people do which you are not is leaning too far forward, your posture is bang on.

[garyfujinami]

Exactly how it's done. And, you don't have to turn around far enough to see to hit your target. And it makes for a quicker kick.

I've been doing this kick for over 40 yrs. And is my main kick .

[portersprojects]

Thank you for this small but effective detail. I think I missed that point in class. 😁👍

Practicing martial arts since 1982, I never understood, appreciated or practiced the spinning back kick. The spinning side kick all day, used to knock people off their feet with it. This is a good breakdown. I'm going to start practicing and incorporating it. Thanks.

Верно. Нога должна лететь первее до поворота корпуса.

[djengoelv]

I absolutely agree. Its more fast, powerful, and wise.

[jorrisaddy]

Damn, I could feel the pain of the kick. Keep up giving us these vids....Oss

[mountainwarrior]

That’s a fight ender for sure absolutely beautiful. Very impressive as always John 🤜🤛

[anthonybonanno]

Outstanding ! Yes. Perfect form spin I g back kick. Knee high hip open is a side kick. Knee down toes down is a back kick using the powerhouse glutes, high hamstring and some quad. Landing that on someone’s groin is a fight ender, same for the knee, liver, and even a shot in the thigh is going to be debilitating for an opponent.

Small adjustment step with the front leg clears the straight path for the rear. Mask it with a jab or jab fient.

La ushiro es una de las patadas más efectivas, tanto para ser utilizadas en la calle así como en competencias y además es de las fuertes

[susantoto]

Tendangan belakang ini awalannya lutut masih di tekuk oebawah jadi tendangan tidak bisa sampai kebawah, tapi untuk power dapat full, pandangan jangan lepas dari musuh didepan. Telat sedikit ditabrak lawan malah terjungkal kebelakang. Jadi timing harus tepat benar... Semangat 💪
