The Foot Stomping Technique  

1. Start with your feet at shoulder width - stand normally.

2. Pivot on the ball of your foot: Turn the left heel around so that the heel is pointing at the ball of your right foot (where your big toe meets your foot).

3. Lift your right knee up to a horizontal position, and bend the toes up. At the same time, turn your body side-on to your attacker. Notice how easy and natural it feels after turning your heel first - your knee on the left leg doesn’t twist and strain.

4. Now, with the blade of your right foot (the foot you’ve got swaying in the breeze), strike on the middle of your attacker’s kneecap.

5. Continue down the shin, very fully contacting where their shin joins their foot.

Other points to remember: 

• Select the easiest or most convenient kneecap to strike.

• The blade of your foot is the long outside part.

• Use the middle of the blade, between your toe and your heel.

• Shoes with a good hard solid heel and base will do the job, resulting in maximum damage.

When you carry out this technique successfully, you will graze and bruise the shin, then break a bone or two in your attacker's foot.

Practice it   

Put your shoes on and go out and find a pole or post. Imagine that the pole is your attacker’s leg and the ground that it goes into, is your attacker’s foot. Use a pole to practise this valuable self-defense technique.
