To me it seems redundant to make the distinction. I suspect this distinction only serves as Korean propaganda so as to sell the image of TKD as a purely Korean martial art.

Anyway... I always thought that TKD was derived from Tae Kyun and Karate.
No way dude, a fifth level ranger could kick a 10th level mage's ass! Who would win between the hulk and ironman?

I agree with you and these arguments are assinine. all these arts are related and interchangeable. It's not the art, but the person who uses it. Who cares where they came from? I like angelina Jolie, but I don't care about Jon Voight's nutsack.

Amnell and Tenchu,

My knowledge came from research, like everything else in life, science, engineering, medical... everything... came from a bit of researc here and there. It may not be correct or accurate sort of speak, but it is knowledge that came from research, so I am only basing my posting off of what I know.

And don't go off calling an entire nation "liar", you have no rights to do such a thing. Its unfortunate that some like to twist history around, us, absolutely everyone, gain our knowledge from experieince and history.

I do appreciate a healthy debate and discussion, but not the hostility and aggressiveness from a certain individual. Such behavior only make you a narrow minded selfish person who has extremely poor learning attitude - Thats not what a martial artist or someone in a fighting sport should be like

Its either you are trying to act tough by down talking everyone or you are just a real loser in life...

Pi Gua is a very ancient form, I know a lot of existing other art have taken several techniques and form from Pi Gua as part of their own, but I don't know of any school that teaches Pi Gua as it primary art

Its powerful, but too much fixed movement

Tenchu, you win, be the self centered person you want, not that it affect me or should I care. PS. I am not Korean, coming to their defense has nothing to do with my ethnicity and background... its call MORAL....

Go read some facts and you will learn, and dont believe what your stupid teacher tells you. People find it romantic the notion TKD is an ancient art used to kick horse men from their saddle. That is just stupid. It is Karate, plain and simple, havn't you ever wondered why the Karate moves were all so similar if it was an entirly different art? Answer that.
Well, that's because the style the military was using didn't rely on just kicks like TKD does, genius. The info I got on TKD didn't come from any of my instructors; it came from research. I've never, EVER, heard of someone using TKD to kick a mounted soldier off of his horse before. If someone told me that they did that and they could still walk, I would laugh in their face! Karate influenced TKD. It is not the parent art.

Why are you calling me sweety again? Didn't we go over that last week??? I never said that people didn't use TKD in kickboxing. I was only talking about the difference between the sport practice of TKD and the sport practice of MT. To reiterate again, I'm talking TKD is it is typically practiced today: it is not generally taught as an art you would use to defend yourself on the street, even if it could be used that way.

Can you then explain the exact difference where someone who can win a Muay Thai fight is not overly qualified to fight on the street, also? Because I am thinking you are assuming all MT guys have brain damage or something, and can not fight without pillows on their hands...
... What does ANY of that have to with what I said??? My point was that Muay Thai is considered a sport art. Where did I say that being a sport made it ineffective on the street? Stop putting words in my mouth.

Eh, not so much o_O . Back kicks are fun, and learning to do them from a cat stance is quite interesting--it's more about "when" than "how".

I can not side kick or back kick without doing dramatic stance changes first, in most cases, and that is often a give away to your opponent.
Hence the step before the kick. The step sets you up to do the kick very nicely. You're right, my school was not strictly traditional. Most TKD schools in this area aren't because if you can market yourself as teaching self-defense, you can get more soccer moms to bring their kids to your school. Hence, the TKD schools blend techniques from different styles into their curriculum to make it look street-effective (and someone who trains hard really will be, too). Learn how to do a cross-step; that should make it easier to throw a sidekick. From the MT stance, that would probably carry you sideways rather than forward... Hm, you'd have to experiment a little :P . HF ^_^

Granted, but I'm missing how this relates to what I said :P .

It can not transfer power at that angle. Weight is best transfered through a straight line, place a right angle in there, like at the joint of the ankle, and you will lose power.
Not true! I have watched MANY people break boards that were at chest level with the blade of their foot. One of our second-degrees broke one at head level with the blade of his foot.

I think I may have caused some confusion, though: We were taught to kick on the edge of our foot, sure, but we were hitting--ideally--on the spot on the blade that's right next to the heel. So we were sort of using the heel, but the foot was turned to the side rather than coming in straight. It's kinda hard to describe.

In any case, no one ever complained about losing power or having problems breaking the boards.

You can always start with Wikipedia. Then move to a real encyclopedia and finally into some actual literature on the subject. Seems to work for everyone else :P .
