I am assuming that you win if you kick in the head or make them touch the floor with anything other than the feet? But if you catch a kick and knock them over you score even if they kicked you in the head first?
No punches allowed or is it like Tae Kwon Do where you can but no-one ever does?
As far as I know, your aim is to kick the opponent's head or to take him down in one way or another. I'm not exactly sure if takedowns score more than head-kicks, though.
And they simply don't use hands for striking (unlike TKD, where they theoretically have a lot of hand strikes). I'm sure you can also notice a lot of other differences between TKD and TK... :-)
Woh shit;..... taekkyon's better than i thought Oo

would be good to watch taekkyon spar against capoeira.

@turtleboat yeah...both of them looks like dance...i think taekyon's move is unpredictable just like capoeira...

Looks like a really fun sport.

This is from the Korea Taekkyon Association ~ KTA
Videos with the yellow (referee) means it's an actual fight, without the referee means it's a demo.
