What does my ability to speak a foreign language have to do with my ability to teach martial arts skills?
ATTENTION ALL USERS: Thread locked pending staff review. Just kidding.
I just noticed the post count. Would it be incredibly evil of me to lock the thread right now?
Fair fights are for tournaments. The proper answer to a real fight is overwhelming force.
If you're using a weapon as an equalizer, you're doing it wrong. You don't ever want the fight to be equal...
Steve... you really need to clean your office more often... :)

This is normal. MartialTalk (and pretty much all forums) use http rather than https. For the non-geeks among us. https is a secure connection,...

So what? Doing things exactly the same every time is for forms. When positions of you and the target are changeable, so is your technique.
Which kick? He throws more than one. And (not really a surprise) the chambers are slightly different as the position of his body and the target...
Not much.
In general, closed is faster, more deceptive and less powerful. Opened is more powerful, slower, and more telegraphed. Both are useful.
Yes, I have. I spent 15 years or so playing HEMA with various SCA groups. I used crescent kicks both to clear a blade and to parry. My memory...
Whippersnapper. GET OFF MY LAWN!!!
I'll laugh, say "no thanks" and walk away. Why would I do that? This is 2021, not 1521.
In other words, you have no support for your claims. That's pretty much what I expected.
More unsupported assertions won't help.
So now you're claiming that teaching ITF TKD in South Korea is treason? Seriously? Come on, kid. Citation or retraction is the way to go here...
Doesn't mean anything. Cite a law, kid.
Nothing there about teaching systems other than KKW being illegal. Try again.
Proof? You don't have the sort of credibility that would be needed for anyone to accept your unsupported word.

Actually, the ITF is at least three federations these days. I'm surprised you don't know this. This is also wrong. Chang Hon refers to a formset...
This poster has not been on the site since 2009, so I wouldn't hold my breath hoping for an answer...
This was actually a question taken up by the courts in the US. They defined a sport as an activity primarily intended for competition.
I find it hilarious that you presume to lecture an ITF 9th Dan on how the ITF does sine wave.
What makes you think carrying a knife implies competence? I see people attacked with various weapons all the time. If this competence existed, I...
How do they do that when knocked out? I'm not sure you understand this stuff as well as you think you do...
