Think the power loss is where you dont throw your body in with the blocks need to put the hip twist when doing a block thats where power comes from when blocking. I dont think I would even get away with doing that in front of my instructor
How can you even clain there is no power throughout this pattern? You can CLEARLY hear his gi snapping with every movement. How much power should he be generating?
Snapping of his "gi"? First off "Gi" is Japenese. TKD is Korean, which would make the correct name "Do Bok". Snapping of the Do Bok has no relation to power, most heavier fabrics will "pop" with very little power, speed is only needed to create the "pop". The body movement will tell you of the power put into the motion. There is very little counter active motion leading me to believe that there is a smaller amount of power. The "rush" of the movements also indicate the lack of power.
L Stance: weight for a proper l-stance is 60-40, 60 on the back leg 40 on the front, here it is 50-50. The foot should be turned into the stance not turn out of the stance (open), the front foot also is to be turned into the stance not strait. Also the back knee should be pushed out of the stance. The front foot and back foot line up , heel of back foot and ball of the big toe on the front foot are on the same line.
What do you mean by "the front foot also is to be turned into the stance not strait"? Your describing a more American Kempoish stance. We always do an L stance with the front foot facing forwards. As far as i was aware most Japanese Karate/Tae kwon Do styles do an L stance with the front foot facing straight. What style do you take that the front foot faces into the stance?
Punch: Incorrect fist (this is basic fundamentals), the returning hand is not on the belt.
Punch Position: Too high, this is a middle punch, not a middle high punch. the punch should be level with the shoulder, here it is generally mouth level.
Yeah, I agree about rushed. We chamber our hands high, too, and it is nice to run across someone who also does that. :) Thanks for posting your video. I haven't had the courage to do that yet. ;)
Nicely done. I agree with reckless and spondonbongles though, it is rushed and you aren't blocking far enough out from your body. Even so, this is better than many that are posted on youtube.
Your low block finishes on the inside of your leg which defeats the purpose of doing the block in the first place, and altogether not that good. I'm a 9th kup who grades tonight so I'm very proud of my Chon Ji.
Your form looks great. Some of the differences from my school: Kee Hahps (or yells) are in different places. Ours are last punch before 1st mid block and last punch while stepping forward at the end. Our punches are just a little lower (solar plexus). Our chambers are lower, fist on the belt. When we step from one front stance to another we bring our foot halfway in toward the other as we step.
My instructor would crucify me

Blocking: Arm/hand cross over is incorrect, the proper cross over is wrist to wrist, not fore arm to wrist.
Low bock is to high from the leg, arm is bent far to much (also tuck in the thumb, you leave it hanging out it will get broken)

Your comment on proper crossing is a stylistic difference. Our style crosses the way he is crossing. I will not dispute the rest of your comment.
StudioofKoreanKarate 2 years ago
I wasn't aware of the crossing style difference, so I take that comment back.
Is this you performing the pattern?

No, but I can put you in contact with him if you'd like.

Well her goes:
Rushed, no movement or position is completed.
Punch: Incorrect fist (this is basic fundamentals), the returning hand is not on the belt.
Punch Position: Too high, this is a middle punch, not a middle high punch. the punch should be level with the shoulder, here it is generally mouth level.

If your asking about sine wave, our school is not part of the ITF and does not practice sine wave.

What is your definition of "proper" Tae Kwon Do technique?
Also, there's always going to be a big difference between a 2nd Dan black belt and a "master".

To see it done with real power, not rushed and using proper taekwon-do technique look for Master Kim Ung Chol

Ah, I see. You think sine-wave is proper technique.
I'm sorry, but our school doesn't teach you to intentionally telegraph your movements.
