REARING UP

The front kick is chic. It draws an elegant straight line in the air, your fingers graciously topping it, like the serifs of an ancient font.

Combined with a series of forward steps (as in Shipjin or Koryo), it feels like you're riding a prancing horse, your arms pulling the reins of it. This is a proud kick.
