Jumping Roundhouse

Key steps

1. Set the jump from a balanced base and begin the knee lift and hip turn before you leave the floor fully.
2. Rotate in the air just enough to let the roundhouse path form, then snap the leg through the target line.
3. Keep the body compact in the air so the kick stays controlled and does not over-rotate.
4. Land with bent knees and re-establish your stance quickly after the kick.

Coaching points

• Keep the supporting leg strong and stable.
• Chamber and re-chamber the kicking leg cleanly.
• Do not sacrifice posture just to reach higher.
