  • I agree its not the ...

    I agree its not the art that counts. However, the discipline you train in does provide you with your tools of combat. Not just taekwondo but any style limits the number of ways to look at it. So, I think nobody should do just one style if they're serious about martial arts.

  • in a real fight ...

    in a real fight anything goes which is why taekwon do loses...every other form of martial arts teaches to be versatile and adapt to any situation but taekwon do doesnt....ive got many friends that do taekwon do and i respect that but i will never see taekwon do as a fighting style i whic to use in a real street fight or cage fight....it is simply unconventional and to rigid with no finess....

    the leg shouldn't be bend so much at the knee. Also, they seem to disregard their guard.

    PLEASE DON'T READ THIS!!!!! in 1964 13 year old Elisa Johnson was raped and murdered in North Carolina, her body was found with multiple stab wounds, and now that you've read this, every night she will come to your house and hang from your closet with glowing red eyes, the only way to stop this is to post this to 10 other videos.

    I'm the same with the toe, I take it you mean spinning a bit on your front foot before twisting the hips for the kick, yeah?

  • Nah sorry dude ...

    Nah sorry dude you've got this one a bit wrong. That power used to swing the arm back just adds rotational leverage to the power of the kick! Relax! :P

  • Bullshit? ok then, ...

    Bullshit? ok then, well i am not familiar with how pussies kick but i can tell you now, try kicking with power next time and see how hard it is to not use your arm. The arm does not disadvantage the kick at all. Power and speed comes from torso and hips. The arm as i said is the only thing to stop ur upper body (head and shoulders) to twist right around.

  • Bullshit, ...

    Bullshit, counter-balance? If you pull your arm back it means your putting power in your upper-body to go back instead of forward along with your kick. It's much more wise to help your kick by moving in your shoulders more.

  • I believe this IS ...

    I believe this IS indeed the correct way to kick. The if you are kicking with right leg, the right arm muct come back to "counter-balance".If you dont need to do this, there is a problem. Either there is not enough speed or not enough power in your kicks. The only thing he is doing wrong is the left hand guard which i dont think is a big deal as he is ONLY DEMONSTRATING THE KICK.The only other thing is i usually twist my foot before i extend my leg for the kick. More speed inturn= more power:)

  • yeah I'm not a fan ...

    yeah I'm not a fan of dropping the arm back, more traditional style gives a bit more flare and power to the kickand helps return you too stance. But leaves you open for a straight depending where the round house is aimed at. it's mostly for opening range on your hip, but you can also do so with your guard up a lil more difficult on your balance but worth the trying out
