I agree. I do what I call "old style TKD" (That's before all that stuff was removed for sport). Some people don't realize that TKD does have a fair amount of joint locks, throws, take-downs, ect. I even asked my instructor once if he mixed some kind of Judo with TKD, but he said no. TKD does have this stuff. I was kinda shocked, because I didn't know it either, till I started training here. It was a welcome suprise for me, cause I came from a sport TKD school. And we regularly train in this stuff, also. It's not just kicking, punching and sparring. It's so much more
