high kick
Airborne foot strike
A high kick is a kick that raises the leg above waist height, often to head level or higher.
In martial arts, high kicks target an opponent's head or upper body.
In dance, especially chorus lines and cheerleading, synchronized high kicks are a signature move: The Rockettes are famous for their precision high kicks.
