(More customer reviews)In my opinion the two most useful kicks are the side kick and the front kick. Both are simple, fast techniques. Both can be learned in a short time and used effectively. In military hand-to-hand combat training these are the two kicks most often trained--though the side kick is usually taught as a low kick (below the waist) by military instructors.
Shawn's "Side Kick: Achieving Kicking Excellence Vol. 10" covers everything you need to know about mastering this technique: striking surface of your foot, targets on your opponent, the muscle groups involved and a comprehensive training program that will give you a powerful tool that will come 'naturally' after several hundred hours of training and conditoning. As I said, the two most useful kicks for me are the front kick and the side kick. This is a book on technique, not application--you will achieve master-level technical proficiency and be able to deliver a side kick with either foot from a number of positions through several arcs. Unlike the 'kiss and a promise' military hand-to-hand combat training, Shawn's master-level training program will enable you to kick a taller opponent anywhere on the body from ankle to crown with speed and surprise.
Shawn is working on the applications book. Side Kick, Volume 10 is technique, and you must work on technique before you can apply it. This is the best training program for mastering the side kick. Buy this book, get a large mirror and a video camera and two or three training partners (and a heavy bag and a practice pell) and put in the time. Shawn lists the training aids you need--I forgot the focus pad?
