Yoko Geri is Side thrust kick am very confident it is.

 

Kekome is Thrust kick.

 

Kebanashi is Snap kick.

 

Mawashi Geri Round house kick.

 

Mawashi empi is round house elbow.

 

Ask me I know.

 

keage is a Snap.

 

So. Mr. cheeky means side trust kick(yoko geri) snap(keage)

 

Side thrust kick is traveling straight at your oponent with great force while side snap kick travel faster and travel kind off like round house.

I am still training however, having dabbled in Shotokan and Shotokai Karate. I am please to report that Kenshukai is one of the strongest and most disciplined styles ( i did not write this)

Yoko = side.

 

Keri (geri) = kick.

 

(Ke)age = to rise, rising.

 

Yoko geri keage = rising side kick, side snap kick. "Rising" comes from the pendulum-like upward motion.

 

Yoko = side.

 

Keri (geri) = kick.

 

(Ke)komi = to stomp.

 

Yoko geri kekomi = stomping (thrusting) side kick, side thrust kick. "Stomp" comes from the straightforward stomping fashion the kick is performed.

 

"Yoko geri" with no specification may mean any kick performed to the side. Practically it usually means either yoko geri kekomi (more often) or yoko geri keage. Striking area is most often sokuto (soku = foot, to = edge, sword, "foot blade", side of the heel), and occasionally the kick is called as sokuto geri.
