III. Training Tips
- Mastering the Round Kick. Maximize your roundhouse kick’s power and speed by pivoting your supporting foot and turning your hips fully into the kick. This generates greater torque and impact. Crisp execution is key to a devastating roundhouse kick. Focus on the snap of your lower leg, aiming to make contact with the shin or instep, and quickly retract to a guarded position for optimal speed and accuracy. You can read more on tips to refine your roundhouse kick here in our blog, click HERE.

VIII. Closing
- Be ready to work when you come to class and remember to bring your belt to class.
- “Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.” – Tim Notke
- This quote by Tim Notke teaches us that working hard is more important than being naturally talented when someone with talent doesn’t put in the effort. It shows that with determination and effort, anyone can achieve success, even if they aren’t naturally gifted. So, don’t give up and keep working hard to reach your goals!
