Hello. I was just wondering. I put a not so well acepted post in another area that suggested tkd was good for sport and not good for fighting. This upset a lot of people. The funny thing is when people gave me some info i didn't have( I never trained in tkd to be honest) They refused to accept an i'm sorry I could be wrong. I really feel I judged just on what my hapkido teacher said and what i have read in my self defense magazines. I just found out recently that it is not uncommon for hapkido and tkd to argue. My kenpo teacher as a child spoke agaist it as well. Then i just heard that there use to be a big fight between kenpo and tkd guys a while back. This guy just going off and not let me take back my statment is not helping me at all. Does anyone know where I can find out more about the self defense aspect of tkd. Would you fight the same way on the street as you would for sport? do you modify it? Do you teach two ways in the dojang? Maybe one way for street and one for sport. I really just want to learn so I don't go out offending people making statments i know nothing about. Please help me in this matter. I just want to learn more about this art.
