WILTON TEJADA: Hi, my name is Wilton Tejada and I am one of the instructors here in Camp Undefeated, New York City. In this clip, we are going to show you how to do the side kick, okay. Again, it is very important to use proper technique. Again, you are going to bring it into chamber, pivot in the left foot, kick out, bring it back into chamber, and bring it back. Okay, there are various ways of doing the front side--the side kick in the way that you could hit with the blade or you could hit flat with the foot and bring back into chamber and back. Okay, this is a very good tool for the glutes. It emphasizes a great fitness for the legs so it really, really works your whole entire body. Again, I want to show here in the back here. We are going to a chamber, kick out and bring it back. Again, it works that glute. As you extend out, you're really working that glute and hamstring. So it's a great tool for developing the legs, fitness-wise it is an excellent tool to work your body.
