In violence, martial arts, and combat sports, a kick is an attack using the foot, leg, or knee (also known as a knee strike). This attack is often used in hand-to-hand combat, especially in stand-up fighting. Kicks inherently have greater power and reach than strikes made with the hands.Kicks play a great part in many martial arts, such as Taekwondo, kung fu, karate, kickboxing, Muay Thai, capoeira, Silat, and Savate. Some arts do not utilize kicks at all, such as judo and boxing. Other arts limit the use of kicks to attacks on the legs and lower body, while some sport martial arts tournaments only allow kicking above the waist.
