Side Kick from the Ground – Krav Maga Technique

This page provides details on the Krav Maga side kick from the ground. This is where the martial artist hits an opponent with a side kick if they have fallen to the ground. For information on other martial arts kicks (i.e. axe kick), please visit Black Belt Wiki’s main kicking techniques page.

This kick is frequently used to ward off an attacker in order to get up off the ground when under attack. Related Krav Maga techniques include round kicks from the ground and front kicks from the ground.

Martial arts kicks and all other martial arts techniques should only be practiced under the supervision of a trained martial arts instructor in order to prevent injuries and to ensure the proper technique is utilized. In addition, all martial arts techniques and training should be used safely and responsibly.
