Btw Mr Weiss, your claim that ITF TKD strikes/kicks are those found in a patterns cannot be true. TKD strikes/kicks part of the curriculum but absent from ITF patterns include: Jumping back kick, jumping side kick, Hook kick, Tornado etc. Plenty of combat techniques missing from patterns.
Don't know what the above post means. Did you mean to say I calimed then All TKD techniques are contained in patterns? Whatever the above post means, I don't believe I made any such claim and if you can point me to a post where you think I made such a claim please let me know and I will attempt to clarify.
As a correction, the patterns do contain Jump Back Kick, Jump Side Kick, reverse Hook Kick. The term "Tornado Kick" is not a Chang Hon name and means different things in different systems so I cannot address this.
