Excellent technique and very good basic fundamentals. Nice and crisp. Makes a lot of American martial arts schools look poor by comparison.

Namchang Dojang in Suwon is deffently one of the best dojangs in the world. Respect and disciplin as a priority and Grandmaster is a legend, a MooDukKwan Taekwondo guru and an awesome person ❤

Kinda wondering about the purpose behind the big steps. Samurai also used to make big swooping movements to cut through limbs and shock armored troops.

3:42 What is that form called?

Also it looks like they try to feel where the falling momentum would be out of their kicks to amplify their next hand strike. The importance of harmonizing strikes with falling power was stressed in a fighting manual by none other than the great Jack Dempsey!

Actually to those that dismiss this art, training slow controlled high kicks helps develop strength within flexibility. It is possible to train high kicks with speedy and varied combinations but lacking power to break bones/knockout . Also if the leg is caught they end up not having the power and stability in a fully extended kicking position within their pretty fancy quick kicks to prevent a take down . Which brings me to another feature of this style . It is evident that they prioritize being able to flow and control themselves after a kick into a hand technique over overwhelming with kicking combinations. Having the strength AND flexibility to give a good punch immediately to the face or strike to the throat when your kick is caught is actually a very practical skill... There is much to be said for a system that is simple unfancy and practical that does live training against uncooperative opponents such as Muay Thai and Boxing, but as a martial artist it is also good to train for more athleticism and coordination than you would need. Martial EXERCISES that improve fighter attributes cannot always be equated to effective and practical techniques that you would quote verbatim or do with the same largeness of movement from your form or training in a real fight, besides Cung Le, Anderson Silva, Lyoto Machida, Andy Hug , Saenchai, and even Eddie Bravo within jiujitsu have shown that what is "practical" can vary greatly from fighter to fighter. When UFC started, BJJ dominated and no one thought any MMA fights were going to be won by jumping front kicks, spinning backfists, spinning hook kicks, traditional martial art deflections, or the showtime kick/ jumping roundhouse of the cage wall, but now it is proved if you actually train these techniques hard and you have good distancing and ability to spot openings as a fighter these techniques can be devastating. I believe the problem with SOME schools of traditional martial arts training is the lack of preparing the student be able to improvise and ingrain clean solid martial art techniques to the level of instinct for live/random situations against someone who is uncooperative more than the stylistic content of the art. There is also the barrier of being afraid and inexperience of getting hit that some schools won't address, as well as lack of good live distancing skills, fear hesitation, and moral discomfort in hitting someone

This was filmed at Grand Master Kang Shin Chul’s Dojang in Seoul on a visit in 2010 with GM Richard Chun. At the time, the HQ of the Moo Duk Kwan.

Maybe this will help clarify: "Moo Duk Kwan" in Korean translates as "Institute of Martial Virtue" The original meaning was as the school name for Hwang Ke's school of Tang Soo Do up to the time he broke away from the Korean TKD federation. He took half his students with him. The remainder that stayed with the Korean government TKD federation could not use Tang Soo Do, so they called their style Moo Duk Kwan TKD with Ki Hwang Kim as head instructor. Richard Chun studied under him and eventually became head of Moo Duk Kwan TKD. I studied under GM Chun's senior student Arthur Cohen. I have been a black belt in this organization since 1980 and currently hold the rank of 4th Dan. The only part of the video that looks like a Poomse / hyung/ form / kata I see starts approximately 3:45. It's nothing I recognize. The rest are demonstrations of stances, hand and kicking techniques. It would help if the person who made this video could describe the school lineage and history in more detail here.

서울본원 멋진 원장님~🤩

It looks very robotic

감사합니다.

Kungfu fail

감사합니다.

Their forms are extremely different than Soo Bahk Do/Tang Soo Do But I can recognize that what they did was related to the original although changed up a lot

This is not moo duk kwan ...

Shittttt

이 비디오는 태권도 기초이거나 남창도장 자체의 기초 이겠네요, 무덕관 기초 자세는 아닙니다. 저희는 이런 동작들이 없습니다. 다른 사람들이 충분히 오해 할 수 있으리라 사료되오니, 무덕관이라는 이름은 지워 주셨으면 합니다.

what do the 2 boys says before the basic hand techniques ?

Hi everyone! i'm a beginner practicing Moo Duk Kwan as well. can someone type out what exactly they are saying (phonetically) on each stances in : 1. Kibon paljase sogi 2. Kibone Oso kamsa hamnida!

In real fight, u can't dance like this shit

WTF taekwondo

Nanchang Dojang...Master Kang, ShinShull...this TKD, not Soo Bak...Moo Duk Kwan not style TKD, is scholl...

non sense to me..

Nice kata.

Definitely not Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan.. This is Taekwondo.

Wicked in reverse, looks like one of those creative poomse, gives me a lot of ideas for my own creative poomse. Ty Nam Chang Dojang from Brooklyn/ Staten Island New York

Nice Demo and Nice Kata, but I think definitely Tae Kwon Do/Moo Duk Kwan..

This looks like Tae Kwon Do Moo Duk Kwan

Is this Soo bahk do Moo duk kwan? Or is this master Moons Moo duk kwan?
