Performing the: A Step-by-Step Tutorial Rear Axe Kick. Kickboxing
Shift your weight onto your front foot and lift your rear leg, bending your knee so that your heel comes close to your buttock.
Swing your lifted leg up and back in an arc, as if you were trying to hit a target behind you with your heel, keeping your leg as straight as possible at the peak of the kick.
Bring your leg back down in a swift, controlled motion, aiming to strike your target with your heel in a downward motion.
Return your foot to the ground and immediately shift your weight back into your standard fighting stance, ready for the next move.
