Stretching for Kicking

Stretching for Kicking

In this video, Grand Master Pierre Laquerre takes you through three important areas that directly affect kicking performance in Taekwon-Do.

Rather than focusing on stretching in isolation, this session explains how flexibility, mobility, and correct preparation work together to improve kicking height, control, and efficiency.

Grand Master Laquerre provides specific exercises and practical advice in each of the three areas, drawing on decades of experience as both a practitioner and instructor. The emphasis is on safe, effective stretching that supports strong technical kicking rather than forcing range of motion.

This approach is particularly valuable for practitioners who want to improve their kicks while reducing the risk of injury and maintaining long-term joint health.

In the sample video above, you will see a short excerpt from the full premium session.

Key focus areas covered in this video:

  • Stretching methods that support higher and more controlled kicks
  • Improving hip mobility and leg flexibility for Taekwon-Do kicking
  • Preparing the body correctly before intensive kicking training

This video is suitable for colour belt students, black belts, and instructors looking to refine their understanding of stretching specifically for Taekwon-Do kicking.
