Great fundamentals video.
i wonder how today's taekwondo would be so different if they allowed head punches again.
This is traditional ITF is what I took, the original taekwondo. This is the way suppose to spar. Today its is namely kicks veery rarely punches
Hello again, Jason75. Yes, once again I totally agree. Old-school TKD was more rounded. I used to admire Hee Il Cho back in the day. His kicks were spectacular but he was also a pretty good boxer - his lighting fast combinations were a real joy to watch. I think all TKD practitioners today should do some boxing and grappling, if only with the aim of learning how to approach a boxer or grappler.
@@optimusmaximus9646 I'm not much of a grappler, thats the easy way out. Real man would fight one and one fisty cuffs. Then again I'm oldschool, just a striker
@@optimusmaximus9646 I got all of hee ill cho instructional videos still on VHF and get a load of this VCR still works
@@optimusmaximus9646 I won 7 gold medals for my master back in the 80s
@@jason75I used to be a pure striker myself when I first started out but on day I got taken down by someone in a street altercation (had lots of those in my day) and I just didn't have an answer to it. And so I took up judo to fill in the gap. For a long time I was off the belief that on had to be proficient in both striking and grappling but now I have come to realise that a striker can get by with just a little grappling knowledge, i.e. you don't need to be an expert, you only need to know how to deal with them. The thing is, the moment a grappler puts his grubby mitts on you, even momentarily, he's taken away two most lethal weapons he has - his hands (fists, knife and ridge hand, palm, digits) and elbows, leaving his vital anatomy exposed and vulnerable to attack. I come across it all the time. And even if they manage to take you to the ground, all is not lost - you can still strike lots of juicy sensitive targets before they try to choke you out. I prefer stand up as it suits my personality and I just hate rolling around on the ground, especially on hard surfaces. Love watching Bas Rutten go hell for leather on his opponents with simple but absolutely devastating kicks to the legs and punching and elbow combos without the need for going to the ground.
All Tae kwon do practitioners would do well to get into some boxing and practical grappling skills to become more rounded fighters. I lament over what TKD has become today. The Olympics has killed it just like it has killed judo. Both of these martal arts are now just sports and have lost touch with their martial origins.
You need to practice and trick people.
