Known by many names, a side kick to the knee can be a devastating attack against an opponent. This strike can be so effective and cause so much damage that professional martial arts are thinking about banning it from fights.
But in a self-defense situation, throwing a side kick to your opponent's knee could instantly put them on the ground and give you a chance to get away. The main concept is to throw a standard side kick that is aimed right at or slightly above your attacker's knee cap.
These kicks can do a lot of damage especially when an opponent has their weight planted on the leg you hit.
