Building your core strength and balance is ideal for working on kicking higher, especially if you are already very flexible. In order to kick high you must balance on one leg while holding your core tight. Improving upon these skills will help you to push the limits and reach higher when you kick. Practice your balance by doing simple activities like standing on one foot with your eyes closed. Strengthen your core in any way you like. Consider adding core strengthening to your regular fitness routine. A stronger core will help with balance but achieving this will take time and effort.
