Thats the only downside I can see with it, it's obviously beneficial to avoid having your leg grabbed.

I don't understand why that is. Kicks need far more explaining than hand techniques since it's a pretty abstract concepts to someone who never kicked. But both schools operated this way: hand techniques for teaching, kicking for applications.

Seen lots of clips of schools where they talk endlessly about kicks, how they are done, but it's like I won the lottery here and just didn't get those in-depth instructions. Which back in the day I was very enthusiastic about getting.

There was an opportunity to ask for private time after class with the instructor, but I paid for class time, it should be covered there. I want to go home after class.

according to some sources online, the korean team in the old days were recruits from various universities and they only had intense training prior to a big event.

Is it really likely that South Korea had a national sport and not have athletes training it full-time originally?

Just curious if you guys think 25% could be noticeable or if this would likely be like owning a pure breed?

You can do the Hapkido way in Taekwondo but usually you will see more distinct chamber to kick sequence in TKD. Hapkido has a smoother transition and a bigger circle.

In my opinion, Hapkido spin kicks in particular wheel kicks, are more spectacular but not particularly functional for sparring because they are too big movement. It's demo kicks.

I also want to stress that Taekwondo kickers are generally superior from training time, and bigger talent pool. But Hapkido schools can certainly whip out one or two demon kickers.

If all I wanted to do was to throw some roundhouse kicks. would it just come down to the particular gym, or is there big enough differences that you might prefer one over the other?

You can include both american and dutch kickboxing. since they overlap these days and differ some.

Very fun to see what they are writing in the golden age. I know you can buy some from the 80s from a website.

I've learned a bunch of things about rotation, pressure, posture and how it relates to force.

let's see what you guys can share with us. What has been your observations? Was there anything that surprised you about how a technique registered on the bag?

I have seen some pristine kickers from there at the highest level, but I know nothing about how their style is different aside from weapons training.

The founder is from ITF.

For board breaks that require a proven threshold of significant ​power, which variable tends to be the most important? Suppose your body mechanics is average but your speed​ is very high, will you make the breaks?

Conversely say your body mechanics is optimal but your speed is average, will you ​also make the break?

Also, how much does body ​weight factor in? What is the minimum weight to perform very difficult breaks?

I don't follow patterns competition closely but these look like they were performed harder than usual and less bouncy. Correct me if I'm wrong.

What do you do in such a scenario?

Please state organisation. And If you have any additional information (performing it in a certain context), feel free to share that as well.

I visited my old kukkiwon place. There were no active adult males, a couple of green belt women. a total of 8 students. no black belts or even red belts.

This place was filled with people in 2005.

So for those complaining that I should go train.. there's nothing to train at. They don't even have beginners group.

I enjoyed conversing with the instructors (who were not the same) but is this art going to pull off the feat of going out of business despite having their own olympics?

'time stamped so you dont need to fast forward... What does mom dollyo chagi mean in Kukkiwon and why doesn't he just demonstrate a Pandae dollyo chagi?

Does it simply mean "spin kick"?

Which One do you think he was referring to?
