Taekwondo Far distance kicking technique

Sometimes in sparring we were always told to keep a distance away from the opponent, unless we can cover a longer distance, if not, we are unable to get our opponent too. Since so, how do we ever get our target if we are also a certain distance away?

There are several techniques that we can use. Some are just kicking techniques we can use to cover the distance some involve certain footwork. Whichever technique we will can use, the basics of our kicking should be there. It is important to train up the basic first.

Let's start with an easier technique which requires a basic footwork which is one step in. When bouncing, take a step forward with the back foot moving to the front. Once that is done perform a turning kick immediately. That one step forward will cover some distance to enable you to reach your opponent. Again speed and timing is important to score the point.
