So many people just throw the leg up and bend it. A full range of motion hook kick is so much more then that. It begins with a chamber into the chest. It extends diagonally. It pulls through with the hip to the target it snaps around into the target. Then what most people forget it RECHAMBERS into the chest! It also necessitates a full pivot. . . #pivot #hookkick #martialarts #karate #kicklife #kickforlife #kickcorrectly #taekwondo #taekwondowtf #taekwondoitf #ninja #kickpics #kicklesson #tutorial #ninjalessons #howtokicks (at Northampton Martial Arts) https://www.instagram.com/p/BntN4qaDZoT/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1lyb6vvvm3he4
