Will i learn in time to kick properly or do i have to do somthing in order to get anywere. I serously feel i am making no progress in learning to kick. I am talking round house kicks here my push kick is alright.

1. Get on the ball of your foot!!!
2. Pivotyour foot outwards, so your heel is facing your other leg.
3. Really WHIP your hip of the kicking leg, snap it.
4. Dont aim to stop your kick at the target, go straight through it in a circle. hence 'roundhouse'.
think of when you hit a tree with an axe, dont swing to stop at the tree, swing to go through it.
hope that helps.
