“Hand Combinations in Taekwondo Street Fighting: Training and Applications”

My new book now on Amazon.

 

 

 

Though Taekwondo is a widely known sport these days, when it was first introduced in the 1940s, it was purely a martial art. Chung Do Kwan Taekwondo was the first style to be developed by Lee Won Kuk in 1944. It included techniques for strikes using hands and feet and its aim was to teach students a method to help them survive under conditions of free street fighting.

Since the 1970s, the athletic version of the system has been developed and includes regulations, referees, judges, protective gear and the objective of winning medals. What it lacked was a compilation of techniques, particularly involving the hands, the original fighting spirit, the power and the beauty of an integrated martial art.

The combinations presented in this book are based on the original fighting version of Chung Do Kwan Taekwondo. They can be used as a channel to connect you to the fighting form of the system, as a way of filling the technical gap created by athletic competition, and as a simple self-defense method in conditions of free street fighting.

If reading this helps you to see the strong fighting image of authentic Taekwondo, then it will have achieved its purpose.
