I like the way the light hits the floor. I assume from the manner in which the kick is performed that it is Shotokan?

Nice shot, very sharp, and the natural light is coming from the right direction.

 

If any recommendations on something else to try, it would be to use a different blocking position on the person protecting himself from the kick so his face is not hihdden. I would like to see the expression and the effort on his face as he's blocking the incoming kick.

 

To maximize the focus on the action that is present, I would try to frame it tighter so these two fill the frame more, and are isolated from the others by opening up to about f/4 or easily f/3. This way you would still see the others in the back but they wouldn't have such an important presence as the main subjects are in my opinion these two in front as this is where the action is happening.

 

For an additional punch, I would make sure to be on a tripod and do a few tests at slow speeds if possible to see that kick in action as it arrives towards the opponent's body.

 

Just a few suggestions but this is not bad at all as I like the way each group is placed in the frame.
