		Of course Mawashi means.to go around., but as with so many other Japanese translations that are often vague and sometimes misleading (as there is not always a straight translation from Japanese to English) then I think that Mawashi Geri suffers from this to some degree.
		of Mawashi Geri starts right at the beginning as the knee is picked up, the round should be thought of more as an arcing motion, the ankle should be flexed with the toes pointing slightly upward and outward, this helps the hip rotation at the top of the arc.
		Start the knee lift with a tight squeezing of the hip flexor and the lat muscle bringing the knee tightly up to the side, but not letting the foot come up to the same plane as the knee.
