SaiFightsMS Posted November 28, 2001 Posted November 28, 2001 I currently only jump in my dreams but I do sincerely appreciate hearing how everyone else learned how to do those wonderful jumping kicks. If it is possible I too will one day do a jumping kick. And if it is not possible it is not because I am not trying. I love all the suggestions.

KickChick Posted November 29, 2001 Author Posted November 29, 2001 I understand exactly what youre saying. As you go for the jump you are actually stepping forward with the kicking foot (say left lead) and driving up the knee of the non-kicking leg bringing that knee slightly forward past the lead leg.... I am working on those "jumps" doing squat/jumps .... and doing plie squats (where you squat down on the balls of your feet) then hop up into a jump tucking knees up. I have alot of jump combos that I need perform at 2nd deg. test so any tips are appreciated!
SaiFightsMS Posted December 1, 2001 Posted December 1, 2001 Thanks everyone and I am working really hard. I got both feet half an inch off the floor at the same time last night. Hey that may not sound like much but I spent 14 years stuck in a wheelchair.
