Tonight, we focused on mae geri, front kick. The key points of mae geri are:

• Raise the foot, not the knee. You want to keep the leg as bent as possible to create more power
• The toes must be back, with the foot pointed forward. You kick with the ball of the foot
• This is a snap kick. Focus 70% of the power on hiki-ashi (pulling the foot back)

We then moved on to shuto (sword hand) in back stance kokutsu dachi. Finishing with kihon kata.
