you're probably the only english speaker taekwondo youtuber that actually uses the korean terms, ( and in addition, you pronounce really well!) thanks for that
Great work! The only thing to say is that,in TKD ITF, there are different frontal kicks depending on the intention: Snapping: apcha busigui Hitting: apcha jirugi Penetrating whith the heel: apcha tulgi Pushing: apcha milgi
Yes sir . The idea is to put the whole body behind the kick . The kick is thrown from the centre line in both walking stance and L stance . The foot is retracted in the same line( after delivery ) and it protects the groin area from getting exposed to counterattack. Further , the kick is more powerful when thrown from the center line . Very well explained !
Very important to learn both kicks,Thai teep is fantastic for keeping distance and pushing opponent back or of balance,front snap kick is great for digging into lower stomach takes all the gas out the tank nasty one,
Thankyou. I just started training again at 48 years old. This is very helpful and had good, clear instructions I was looking for thanks again. Also liked your skipping front snap kick , will have to practice that!. Peace be with you.
I push my hips in the front kick as well. I use front leg front kick when my opponent is close, and back leg front kick when is further away from me. Nice videos with the knowledge of a pro. Thank you.
Sweet & really clean tecniq;)))) Im 44, in The midst of my time here. My project, ( a part of it ), -moving on in life is, regaining The balance, flow, and inner calm, I've got from training. 🤜🤚 It seem to have been a while, and with mma taking The scene, it is time for me to return, to roots.... Your vids. Will do that for me. So thank you so much.. Kind reguards from Denmark 🤜✋
Its alwats a good habit even when you practice when you bring your foot back to take a small jump / step back. Ive seen so many people get caught after kicking by not opening the space up. Get into the good habits before the bad habits take over.
Generally speaking you keep it square! But there is also a variation in ITF Taekwon-Do called 'side front snap kick' where you rotate the foot and get more reach 👍
Does your knee pop, when you perform the snap kick? I was trying to wake my knee up, by snapping it fast upward, and I heard a loud pop. I don't remember there being any noticeable pain...I am just worried I could have damaged my dominant knee. I relaxed my knee when I performed the fast kick upwards. I know this sounds stupid...I feel really stupid for doing it.
Not necessarily! I think it all depends on how it lands and how it is thrown. Timing and correct distance play a big part in damage received. Arguably the front snap concentrates the force onto a smaller area of the foot rather than the sole of the foot, but plenty of thai fighters use the ball of the foot and concentrate the force too. I would say though in the case of MMA the snap kick is useful in some ways as it is harder to grab and complete a takedown :D

Back to business! I missed you Sensei
Thank you - I appreciate you saying that
You’re such a good teacher

Totally agree - I think adding footwork would be the next natural step to advancing the basic drilling seen in the video. Distance and timing baby!
Hello sir plz can you make video on jumping front kick plz 😀
Such an excellent teacher. Fabulous.
Thank you my man
If my daughters go the distance, I am heading to New Zealand to enroll them to be trained by you... My word.

Awesome and fundamental. Thanks. Quite useful to refine my practice.
We also call it Ap Chagi in Hapkido. Stomach shots definately hurt!
Thank you!
My pleasure
Would you please explain if the other foot is fixed or rotates when you do with square hip?!
Generally speaking you keep it square! But there is also a variation in ITF Taekwon-Do called 'side front snap kick' where you rotate the foot and get more reach 👍
Thankyou sabom

Would you say that the front snap kick is more damaging than the muay thai teep ??
Not necessarily! I think it all depends on how it lands and how it is thrown. Timing and correct distance play a big part in damage received. Arguably the front snap concentrates the force onto a smaller area of the foot rather than the sole of the foot, but plenty of thai fighters use the ball of the foot and concentrate the force too.

@@VanRoonMartialArts I see. Thanks for replying.
