Hi this is Aaron Fruitstone from Chi Martial Arts in Miami Shores, Florida. You can reach us on the web at www.chimartialarts.com. The next technique that you'll be learning is a variation of the front snap kick called the side front snap kick. Side front snap kick take place with your chest and your standing foot rotated away from your opponent. It allows for greater reach, by turning your hips, it also protects the body, by tucking away most of its vital spot. Our arm guard position is with one leg behind, rear foot turned out, you're going to take your left hand to your chest, right hand close to the body no higher than the shoulder. This hand protects the face, this hand protects the body. You're going to slowly lift the right leg, rotating the left foot outwards. Foot is out, chest is turned away, hold the toes back, extend out, pull back in and return to the starting position. Again you're going to rotate the foot out, allow your chest to rotate as well, up, out, in and down. At normal speed. And from the side. We'll be back.
