New page

The sokutō (literally: “foot-sword”) is the blade or knife-edge of the foot. This is the outer edge of the foot, opposite the arch, running from the little toe to the heel. Side kick, side exercise kick, jump side kick, outside crescent kick, drop kick, and stomp kick all strike the opponent’s vital spots use the sokutō to damage an opponent’s vital points.
To form the sokutō, raise your big toe up, curl your other toes down, and twist your ankle so that the ball of your foot faces inward, as shown in the photo below:

Failing to accentuate the sokutō will cause your kicks to strike with entire bottom of the foot, dissipating the blow over a larger area, decreasing the pressure and damage done to your opponent. For best results, try to aim your techniques such that they make contact within 3” (~ 7.5 cm) from your heel. This ensures that your little toe will be out of the way, and remain undamaged.
