Definitions

NFHS Rule 4-29 "Kicking the ball is intentionally striking it with the knee or any part of the leg or foot below the knee"

NCAA Rule 4-42-1 "Kicking the ball is striking it intentionally with any part of the leg or the foot."

If the foot is off the ground then I have an intentional act, and therefore a kick. I never penalize the defense for being in good guarding position with the foot on the floor.
