Hey everyone, I just wanted to say HEY and am looking forward to getting to chat with some of you too. As the title does state, I am new to Martial Talk as of now and I just started training in Tang Soo Do about 2 weeks ago. Any insights or links of that sort would be greatly appreciated. Don't worry, I am not a baby to martial arts. I have studied Wado Ryu Karate when I was in elementary school and Chung Sil Taekwondo a few years ago and a fast learner to it all.

Hi, welcome to MT and TSD! I did Wado first which I loved then TSD. You will find TSD relatively easy as much of it is very similiar, the hyungs especially. Wado has a lot more stances, it also has jumping and jumping scissor kicks whereas TSD has just scissor kicks which they call jumping kicks! I think I may get shot down here lol but I think Wado is more intricate than TSD, I do enjoy it though!

Welcome to MT, and Tang Soo! I'm JT, 2nd dan in ITF-style TSD (MDK-style, except for a few forms).

Just remember that in TSD, we kick high and often, so balance, stance, and technique are all important...as in any other serious martial art. ;)

Hi Chris,

I'm new to martial arts and Tang Soo Do (Moo Duk Kwan). I've just begun my fourth week of training and love it.

I wish I could provide more links for you.
