There are dozens of styles of karate and probably a hundred names for different kicks. Some of them overlap. I highly recommend joining a genuine karate club in your area.

Hello, Where to start??? There is no way to really break down the kicks into satisfying categories. Outside of individual body builds and the effect that can have. Each system develops there techniques slightly different so it is natural that one kick may be stronger in Tae Kwon Do than it is in Shotokhan Karate. Side stepping and spinning are variations of kicks. So I am going to strike those off the list, naturally adding more momentum to a technique is going to add power to the end contact. The potential for variations for one technique can get out of hand. For instance, if we were to break the kicks down into directions; front, side, and back. There is no such thing as a side back kick, it is called a side kick because the individual is kicking off to their side, the same principle applies for front and back kicks. Then you have Front Thrust kicks, Front Snap Kicks, Front Kicks, High Rise/ or Ax kicks. All of these are pretty much straight line kicks, that start and go straight to the front. The variations can distinct what part of the foot makes contact and the direction the force is focused in. Don't forget the: Side Thrust Kick, Side Snap Kick. The Crescent Kicks (in to out and out to in), Round House Kicks, then take into consideration the variations that can come about by adding spins, steps/ side steps, and jumps. According to National Geographic's documentary "Science of Fight"/ or "Fight Science" (I can not remember), In Karate the strongest kick is the Side Thrust Kick. And for Tae Kwon Do is was the back kick. Mui Tai took the show with it's knee kick, which has the potential to actually be fatal. To be honest that technique should be called a strike rather than a kick, I have never looked into what classifies it as a kick.... Personally as basic kick I would have to vote for the back kick. Jumping adds a ton of power to a technique... I have a friend I have known for over 10 years, and we trained together before the military sent us in different directions. He took state champion boxing his 8th grade year and state champion wrestling his Freshman year. He broke a guys fore-arm with a crescent kick. Shotokhan may not be the oldest for of Martial Arts but is considered to be one of the first to be systemized. One aspect that should be taken into consideration is what the kick is meant for? The variations of the kicks are in place to fill a gap found in the systems prior techniques. So a Front Thrust Kick may not have the impact that a Round House Kick has. It does have a lot of force behind it, I was able to drive a gentleman probably 100lbs heavier than me across the mats with the front thrust..... As far as basic kicks go I am going with the Back Kick. I hope this helps,

I would say the consensus is that the reverse side kick or spinning side kick is the most powerful kick. A 360 roundhouse kick might be close b/c you can build up some major speed. EDIT: Can i clarify my answer? I'm thinking of Bruce Lee doing that stepping side-kick to O'hara in Enter the Dragon. I think that kick might be able to throw a person farther, but for rib-breaking force on impact, I still say the spin.

Originally, there is only front kick, crescent kick and joint(kansetsu geri)kick, back kick, in Karate.



All the others were adapted from other MAs.

First of all, kicks are called gheri in Karate (Japanese) and chagi in Taekwondo (Korean).



and moves are called as "kata" in Karate and Poomse in Taekwondo. All the kick moves are the same except their name ----- which doesn't really matter.



Front Snap Kick (mae gheri, the most powerful kick in Karate)



Back Kick (ushiro gheri)

Side Kick (yoko gheri)

Round House Kick (mawashi gheri)

Reverse Round House Kick/Heel Kick (ushiro mawashi gheri)



Groin Kick (a powerful kick aimed at the legs, its surprise is that it utilizes speed more than power)



Axe Kick (kakato gheri)

Crescent Kick (makazuki gheri)

Hook Kick (ura mawashi gheri)

Multiple Kicks (ren gheri)

Calf Kick

Vertical Kick

Twist Kick

Scissor Kick

Reverse Side Kick

Flying Kicks (Very common in Both Karate and TKD)



But you should know one thing kicks aren't everything though, and the real "power" of Karate is in the hands ---- the meaning of Karate is The way of the hands or Empty Hands.



Or else Karate will not be any different from Taekwondo.



Hope this detailed answer helps!

The easiest way to learn golf like a pro is by following "The Simple Golf Swing" program. It's primarily a 31 page eBook that teaches golfers how to make solid contact with the ball, how to avoid hitting fat, how to avoid slicing, how get more power, accuracy, and consistency in your swing. Consistency being the number 1 golf skill.



You not only get the eBook though, you also receive a ton of extra material including video, lessons on putting, driving, chipping, sand play etc. Here is their official site: http://www.golfswingguru.net

Hook, Axe, spinning back hook, inside/outside crescent and outside/inside crescent.

A round house both with front or back leg and the same goes for the side kick. Fake front kick (some call it a chicken kick).



Check eBay for kicking instructional videos/DVDs.

Dimitri forgot one, wheel kick. I think you need to rephrase your statement. You state that you "mastered" the basic kicks? Unlikely. You should say that you have become comfortable with certain kicks. But "mastered"? No.
2008-03-08 18:44:52 UTC
front thrust, front snap, side, roundhouse, flip, hook, back, axe, cresent, reverse cresent, spinning hook, spinning flip, spinning side, spinning cresent, spinning reverse cresent, jump spinning cresent, jump spinning reverse cresent, adv. jump front, jump front, 360 wheel (tornado kick), hook pull, twist kick, defensive hook, defensive side, defensive back, front leg roundhouse, front leg jump roundhouse, ground kick, "sissor", rear leg side, rear leg flip, rear leg hook, skip hook, skip side, skip flip, double(multiple action) kicks.

That's most if not all the kicks in American Freestyle Karate from white belt to first degree black. That'll keep you occupied for a few dozen years to master. :) Good luck and never give up.
