SO what you ... ( 3 weeks ago by CodyNabrotzky)
SO what you actually meant to say is you teach IsShinRyu Karate, and a bit of the following: Judo, Aikido, Krav Maga, Boxing, acupuncture/pressure, nerve point theory, body mechanics, I think you meant HRCT points, gb 20, st 5,6-SI points, "weapons" and how they're typically used..umm more strikes so that's Karate again. Tell me, would you consider a Cane a weapon? And did you actually know, it's not only the deadliest weapon out but it's something you can actually keep with you.
Let me point out ... ( 3 weeks ago by CodyNabrotzky)
Let me point out Aikido is VERY similar to Hapkido and it's just as fake. Ever see those Steven Segal demonstrations? I think before you start saying what exactly you teach, you should probably fully learn them, or else you're just as fake as the "masters" you curse. You've proven your immaturity and ignorance and I'm suprised students actually allow you near them. And yes..I've proven all my points and I've no further use in keep contact with a phony such as yourself.
This video ... ( 3 weeks ago by chrischerc)
This video continues to show the incompitance of all the tkd "masters" teaching today, Wouldn't it just be common sense that if you teach kicking to the head you would also teach some kind of protection for the head ? "We teach moving out of the way , or sidestepping and parrying to avoid the kicks." Good answer but it didn't seem to help all the students in tkd videos being knocked out ! Tkd is just a mass of fake "masters" trying to show they know real self-defense!
No it's just that ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
No it's just that WTF TKD sparring is weird in a way, cause well, it's not really fighting. They're kinda not bothering about blocking cause sometimes if you block with your arms too close to your body and your opponent hits your arm you still lose points. For some people their arms may even be lowered like 0:28. Sometimes the kicks might be a miss but if you blocked like how I mentioned you might lose points so they're trying to avoid that. You can't judge TKD just because of how they spar.
Jack , more the ... ( 2 weeks ago by chrischerc)
Jack , more the reason TKD should not be advertised as a martial art or for self -defense. It should be a "sport" and the false advertising should be stopped . The millions of tkd students who are being destroyed in real fights (inferior street techniques) should look to other real systems that use their hands, low kicks to nerve areas, grappling, uppercuts to ribs (intercostal nerves), footwork, not bouncing (took out plenty tkd fighter in mid bounce). High, spinning kicks are not for street!
Jack this is why ... ( 2 weeks ago by chrischerc)
Jack this is why all the false advertising that Tkd is a martial art and for self-defense should stop. Do you realize how many Tkd students are destroyed in street fights every year because they are taught not to use their hands and inferior techniques such as the rising block, low block and such? Tkd should be marketed strictly as sport ! If people need reality traing they look for arts teaching how to punch,grappling,footwork (took out plenty of Tkd fighters in mid bounce} anatomy and such.

Yes, I agree, the sparring part IS a sport (the OLYMPICS), but TKD itself is a martial art. The arguments that you are stating, such as not knowing how to use their hands, I'm quite sure that is incorrect. I can tell that you're saying that because once again, you were judging from the sparring matches. Any normal human being would know how to use their hands in a real fight, they don't use their hands much in sparring because it gives them a disadvantage in the match (I'll explain if you want).
I wonder why it's ... ( 2 weeks ago by oggie1973)
I wonder why it's always the same thing? every time when I watch a video related with tkd, the others "martial arts assasins" are speaking stupidities so very simple: what are you doing here? don't you have enough videos of your "style of assasination"? go away!
TKD specializes in ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
TKD specializes in a mobile stance, and you might have been mistaken by seeing the bouncing in these videos, but it is NOT part of the stance. First of all, the bouncing is to warm their feet up, so that their feet reacts normally when your opponent rushes you. Secondly, if "plenty of TKD fighters" were taken out in mid bounce, that's not because they were bouncing, however if that was the reaason they are doing it wrong. You don't jump up high, your feet just bounces like 1mm off the ground.
Well one more thing ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
Well one more thing, about the spinning kicks, they are useful when used properly. Spinning kicks such as the back kick (well you spin halfway) can be very useful because the leg is hid behind you and the opponent can't see it all the time so it can land very easily. However, harder spinning kicks such as the spin hook needs more precise timing. It's useful but you don't use it a lot, and just because it's not used often it doesn't mean that it's useless.

Jack no offense but do you think the opponent knows your leg isn't there? Although it might be well hidden if his guard is up high , he should have alot of protection. The head of my system, Don Nagle, a legend in Isshinryu was almost killed one night trying to use a high kick. He was a legend with his speed and lightning kicks and was a Jersey City detective. He was taking a couple of guys in and they resisted. He used his kicks hundreds of times before. This night there happened to be some ice

on the ground and he slipped. His wife took his gun and killed one of the prisoners. Jack at your next tkd tournament, listen to the slaps on the mats. You will soon realize its not the sound of people being knocked out or taken down, its the sound of tkd fighters falling , losing their balance !
Well yeah they know ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
Well yeah they know your leg is there, but if it's as you said that your opponent's will always have a lot of protection, no martial artist will EVER hit each other. If you've actually had a guy with a good back kick do it to you before, you'll understand. As for the legend you speak of, first of all you could be killed at any given moment. You could be killed while NOT kicking. Just because he happened to fail once doesn't simply mean that kicks are ineffective.
Also, note that ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
Also, note that he's HUMAN? You make it sound like legends don't make mistakes, but he's a HUMAN. ALL humans make mistakes. Then once again, you maimed the WTF sparring matches. And yeah they may fall a lot, but that's cause they're ONLY kicking. Besides, just because you fell it doesn't mean you lost, cause if that was the case Jujitsu would be ABSOLUTELY invincible. Also, yeah I know it's a crazy idea and may be no one's ever heard of it before, but ever tried...... GETTING BACK UP?
And dude you really ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
And dude you really shouldn't care about falling that much. You don't just fall because your'e kicking, you can fall anytime, anywhere. You can fall walking, you can fall running, you can fall tripping, you can fall running down the stairs, you can even fall running UP the stairs....... If you're 1337 enough you can even fall just standing there.

Jack , I have had alot of street fights, been abouncer 20 years and trained fighters who fought in the UFC (tkd), who loved to use ax kicks and backicks. They were totally ineffective on me because of my guard. I'm talking 40 years. in the dojo and in the street I simply blocked the kicks then caught most of them trowing the person on the ground and finishing the fight. I'm talking self-defense and street , not tourney.
Yeah, how many ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
Yeah, how many times did I say that you were bashing tournies? So I'm NOT talking about tournies. And yeah just because you blocked some kicks it doesn't mean they're always ineffective, if you're saying that you blocked ALL of them then that's your opponents' fault for using them ineffectively. But if you really block all kicks, ANY kick, you'd become a legend. People would actually recognize you and the world would stop using kicks that much. But apparantly, the world I know's not like that.
Ever considered the ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
Ever considered the fact that almost all martial arts teach kicks? What kind of martial art handicaps themself by not kicking(cept for ones like Wing Chun which is special). There are so many people who practice martial arts in this world, and let's say 99% are retards, and only 1% acknowledges that kicks are ineffective. That 1% (which is a lot) would dominate the martial art world. But since there's no such man that we know, proves how much your words are worth huh?
Well enough logic ... ( 2 weeks ago by jackisg4y)
Well enough logic from me, how about some logic from you and less bs that doesn't have evidence...... Right now you're saying that you're completely INVINCIBLE against most kicks, that's quite arrogant. Honestly, no one would a decent brain would believe in what you're saying. We KNOW that nothing's invincible. Nothing's perfect, not even your "perfect" defense against kicks. If you're really perfect, why aren't you what they call God?
