Zusammenfassung der Kapitel
The paper begins by providing a detailed description of the side kick, outlining its steps and emphasizing the importance of balance, concentration, and speed. It then delves into the application of the dynamical system theory to motor learning, suggesting that focusing on natural movements and experience is crucial for mastering the side kick. Two practical exercises, the knee booster and breaking the stick, are presented to facilitate the learning process. These exercises involve specific movements and targets, aiming to develop the necessary skills for executing the side kick effectively. The paper concludes with warnings regarding safety and proper warm-up procedures, emphasizing the importance of avoiding injury during practice.
