Semi Contact Kickboxing

This is the same as Freestyle karate.

Primary drilling is done on the focus mitts. Sparring uses the lighter mitts and is touch or semi contact only.

Additional hand techniques include the ridge hand and backfist.

The stance tends to be more side on the FC, and there is more use of the side push kick than the front push kick.

Good head kicking is necessary to become really proficient at SC KB.
