The front thrust kick is used by many martial arts styles in order to stop an advancing opponent. The kick is usually thrown to the mid-section or the face.

MMA combines multiple styles of martial arts in competition. Styles can vary widely from various striking (such as muay thai or karate), and grappling (such as jiu jitsu or wrestling) martial arts disciplines. In order to be effective in MMA, you must be able to transition seamlessly from one style to the next depending on the current situation. One of the favorite ways to transition from striking to grappling is with a takedown, such as a single leg.
This video demonstrates how to perform a single leg take down for MMA. Enjoy!
This video demonstrates how to do a karate lunge punch, also known as the stepping punch. Power is generated from the ground, through the body and into the punch.

This move should be executed quickly in order to reset and prepare for the next attack or defense. Enjoy!
Side kicks are a very popular move for many styles of martial arts. It involves lifting the leg and thrusting it at an advancing opponent. This blow can deliver massive damage and stop an attacker before they get close enough to strike you.
