How to do a Roundhouse Kick- Ji-Hae Kim

First, stand straight. Loosen up and place one of your feet in front of the other. It doesn't really matter which one.  Line your feet up straight. Your front foot should be two or so feet away from your back foot. All of your weight should be on your back foot. Turn your back foot so the toes are pointing towards the outer wall closest to your foot. If you are on your right foot, point the toes of your back foot towards the right wall. Face your body to the same side your toes are pointing but keep your shoulders and head faced forward with your front foot. 
Now it's time to do the kick. Turn your front foot to face the opposite direction of your back foot. Shift your weight onto the front foot and swivel your leg with your hips in a semicircle. Keep your kicking leg straight. 
Aim to hit with your shin. If you have good aim, you could hit with the inside crook of your foot or with the ball of your foot. It's important that you swing around with your hips following your foot and leg or else the power of your kick would decrease dramatically. 
Well, it's something like that.
