Front Kicks
- Stand with a tight core and flat back. Stagger your feet just a little so that your left foot is in front and your right front is behind you.
- Bend your elbows and bring your closed hands to your chin, mimicking a traditional boxing stance.
- Begin by extending your right leg up, leading with your knee.
- Next, extend your foot out. Immediately, retract it back to the starting position.
- Repeat on the other side.
