Pivoting & Hip Alignment for Kicking

This is part two of Grant's Kicking Fundamentals series. Here, he explains the importance of pivoting the hip in martial arts to devliver a more powerful blow. Many people mistakenly assume that flexibility is the key limiting factor in their roundhouse or sidekick kicking height - when in fact it often comes down to a lack of pivoting. Turning that supporting foot not only allows for a much higher and faster kick, but also helps to genrate more speed and power for a trluy devastating blow.

Consider these videos like pieces of a puzzle. Once you can incorporate all these lessons into your martial arts kicks, you should see drastic improvements.
