My experience about learning side kicks/roundhouse kicks so far is the following: - there are several different kinds of side kicks - everywhere it is trained a little different (referring to first point), every Kru is focussing of different details; try to figure out what's working best for you What each training style or way of explanation has in common is - to twist the foot you're standing on as much as possible in order to open your hip - to swing the arm on the kicking leg's side in order to keep balance or even to keep distance to your opponent What I do at least when training is to use even the shoulder, so to make the whole upper body turn, hip and shoulder stay in line. Basically it's all just a question of muscle chains and how you can activate them as fast as possible.
