	Kicks are a main part of self-defence. There are many kinds and many variations of each kick as well. Some people mistakenly say Taekwon-Do is a kicking-only sport, but this is not true as there are many more hand techniques than kicks. It takes 1,000 times to master a kick. The main thing that sepertates Taekwon-Do from other martial arts is its jumping and flying kicks.		Kicks are a main part of self-defence.

twisting kick edit

New page

A''' twisting kick''', or '''twist kick''', is a kick possibly unique to Taekwon-Do. It is preformed by one twisting their leg around so that the ball or instep of the foot attacks your enemy with your own leg twisted around.   

== Kinds of Twisting Kicks ==
A twisting kick can be done with either the instep or the ball of the foot. It is broken up into a twisting that is low- like a front kick- one that is over and behind the head and jumping twisting kick. So it could be preformed mid, low, or high section, like[[File:ITF_Twisting_Kick.jpg|thumb|An ITF Twisting Kick]]a turning kick, or a punch.

New page

An upset punch is a punch preformed by punching upward, the fist upside down. It is called an upset punch partly because it can upset one's attacked stomach. This can also be preformed with the middle finger's middle knuckle pointed outward, a good attack to the solar plexus.

-	A '''punch''' is the basic hand technique and one of the first learned by [[White Belt\|white belts]]. It is preformed by balling up the fist (thumb always goes on the outside, not the inside) and hitting with the first two knuckles. This basic movement is catogorized into reverse punch, obverse punch, high section punch, middle section punch, low punch, and front punch. It also has many variations. The reverse and obverse punch is commonly used in boxing, though their technique is not as good and they often use a punch where they hook the fist around.	+	A '''punch''' is the basic hand technique and one of the first learned by [[White Belt\|white belts]].

		+	== Types of punches ==
		+
		+
		+	=== Middle Section Punch- ===
		+	A middle section punch is the first kind of punch learned. This type of punch is shoulder-level. It can be preformed from a variety of stances, but is most commanly done in a L or Walking Stance.
		+
		+
		+
		+	=== High Section Punch- ===
		+	A high section punch is eye-level. It is preformed the same way as the middle section punch, only higher. The ITF pattern Dan-Gun consists of various techniques, but all the punches are high section.
		+
		+
		+
		+	=== Low Section Punch- ===
		+	A low section punch is preformed low. This is not usually used in Taekwon-Do.
		+
		+
		+
		+	=== Obverse Punch- ===
		+	An obverse punch is a punch preformed in the natural way according to your stance. For example, in an L-stance, a punch with the back hand is considered an obverse punch, whereas a punch with the front hand in a walking stance is called an obverse punch.
		+
		+
		+
		+	=== Reverse Punch- ===
		+	A reverse punch is a punch preformed in the opposite way that one naturally punches. An L-stance punch with the front hand is a reverse punch, while a walking stance punch with the back hand is a reverse punch. This is the opposite of an obverse punch.[[File:Obverse_Walking_Stance_Punch_Preformed_by_ITF_Black_Belt.jpg\|thumb\|An obverse punch in an ITF walking stance]]
