Haunchido – The reason and definition for the development of “Sloppy Kicking.”
A comprehensive look into Haunchido’s sloppy kicks that testify to a fact that traditional kicks tend to cause physical damage or injuries that don’t show up until years later.  88% of knee and especially hip problems within the martial arts occur by bad teaching techniques.  This is reason why many practitioners lose their ability to continue kicking as they age.
Too much stress to the hip and knee joints create damage when you force others to physically move exactly the same way or creating a carbon copy approach to motion when there are many different body types to consider.
Sloppy kicking allows individual body physics to occur with natural motion and kinematical suppleness without stress to joints. Haunchido is progressive by allowing individuals to develop their own signet to their own motions creating their own method when given the four components of physics.
