no… kicking the hip on the same side as his kicking leg. it takes practice to get the timing, but is good against a rear leg kick.
Kick 'im inna nuts! 
This is how you deal with a opponent that attacks and runs
Have you ever heard of the Mu-Ying and Yow Ying of chinese boxing there principles that should be practice by a fighter.]
You should practice these principles regularly. If an opponent Kicks and runs Charge him cut him down and destroy him. Do not give up space to him. If you do he will dominate you and Win. You must practice the principle of Doam or fearlessness If you are afraid to attack an opponent you will get hurt and loseyour fight because you were hesitant . Watch his body. No attacking Army in the world will give up territory they have conQuered in a battle. Thats stupid. So if an opponent is attacking you attack him when he’s scared hesitant and is on a retreat. Every Army and fighting force on earth was designed to increase there attack when an opponent retreats. You must be willing to commit urself to your opponent.
are you talking about street fighting or in a school?
kicking someone in the hip isnt cool… can totally f*ck up their joints… hips have a large range of movement, but if you kick it the wrong way, Ive dislocate my knee a couple times (once from a kick), and I dont even want to know how bad it would hurt to get the hip popped out…

it’s a light front kick, muay thai kicking’s equivalent of a jab. Matter of factly, I’ve also heard it referred to as a push kick.

yes. steal his space. once you steal his space, steal his balance.
Hey
The only true way to be a sucessful fighter and martial artist is to train perfectly. IF you train poorly u’ll perform poorly if you train as a novice you’ll perform like a novice if you train with superiority you’ll be superior. You must be willing to progress by training harder. Thats what makes a good martial artist from average!!!
Hope i haven’t stepped on any toes by saying this but Practice doesn’t make perfect. perfect practice make perfect. I know this is random but I just wanted to give a word of encouragement to all martial artist.
