The Way - Taekwondo by WTF

[WARXDEVILXALAN]

My favorite martial arts and why:

Judo (cause I do it and love it every Tuesday n Thursday 7-8pm

TKD (it's one art that connects with the mind)

Jiu Jitsu (cause I do it 6-7 pm but I do judo more)

[ismaelildts]

Já postei esse vídeo mil vezes no meu Facebook, mas vou postar mais essa vez pra encerrar a série de vídeos de Taekwondo que andei postando. Sempre que assisto, dá vontade de treinar! Ele mostra o tamanho da arte marcial e do esporte e, quem não conhece, pode acreditar que tem mais! Eu não me importo que não gostem e aceito que não conheçam, mas não admito que não respeitem. O Taekwondo é muito mais do que chutes e preços de exame. Taekwondo é o sentimento do taekwondista ao ver esse vídeo.

[taekfute]

I am inspired :')

[nicktohzyu]

tkd is an attack art

[Jediblackopps]

can someone tell me if there is a video for 0:14

[Gypsybutterfly8]

Every time I watch this video it fills my heart with more love for TKD. It is the best thing I've ever done in my life. Best sport, best art, best community. It is amazing for the body and for the soul. I love TKD.

I love taekwondo...i am a purple belt

[ngayonnaba]

3.

Of all the different paths in front of me, even if the path I am to take

Is so dark that I can't even see the stars,

giving up is not an option. If I keep marching on,

I'll eventually get to see a ray of sunlight made just for me.

4.

I know that, despite all that has happened, I am blessed.

After all, I have a path in front of me that I can walk on.

So If I keep going, If I keep marching on,

I should be thankful for everything that has happened to me.

[JorgeV0o7]

whats the name of the song

BTW is the best video of TaeKwonDo on this beatiful world :D!

TKW (L)

[ngayonnaba]

@JorgeV0o7 This son is written by Kang San Eh. The name of the song is "Salmon",( "연어")

[dalailame]

That is what i love: TaeKwon-Do (L)

[rudeEMOboi]

[Ofw29]

The greatest video I had ever seen about Taekwondo

[uploadx11]

took up TDK at 40 years old and i love it .my legs are feeling it though lol

[Lukekiwi1]

Ur not a real man til u get a hooknkick to the head :)

[faithite]

after watching this vid. i dont want to give up! i want to advance to black belt! :)

[kasp283e]

@faithite I ment thumbs up....

[eugene680]

I felt ever since I took up Taekwondo 14 years ago, it raised my ambitions to the " sky is the limit ". I remember before I didn't have such high ambitions. All I want was to work in ordinary jobs. Now I'm chasing goals a normal person would find impossible. It taught me the drive to reach high in life. Get your black belt. You might also feel your ambitions in life just got higher. And really, I'm not making this up.

[yogistyle92]

awww...i've studied wtf taekwondo for 6 years and just been awarded 1st dan, but now i am a student abroad and couldn't find time for taekwondo...this video makes me really sad..i miss my dojang..

[cassiaro]

[DavySigfusson]

[wazwuz]

[trevor112211]

This video always makes me want to do better :)))

[fullonsk8]

look this good tkd video!!!! :)

watch?v=BdO2LJ_v5w8

[trevor112211]

How do i get this song?

[sotiriou6166]

@trevor112211 Use a youtube converter... try googleing " youtube online mp3 converter :) "

[trevor112211]

@sotiriou6166 thank you it worked :))))

[octerion]

@trevor112211 Buy a CD. This song is very old, and I'm not sure if this is even available in mp3 format. Many people born after 80 won't even know the song. Almost all of whom born after 85 will not even know the band.

[nafles101]

This is a really uplifting and inspiring video. I'm a relative newcomer to the art and (at 24) admittedly I started late. Thank you so much for posting this. It is in its entirety a reminder of what we should strive for throughout martial arts.

[kakliza]

@nafles101 i started at 40. there's a 70 year old grandma doin' it in the USA.

[blitzz06]

what is the title of this song?pls tell this title

i love this song vety much

your reply is very important and thank you all people to support youtube!more power TO ALL GODBLESS

[Lung27]

The song's name is: Salmon by Kang San Eh

[HwarangKnights]

The title is "거꾸로 흐르는 강물을 거슬러 오르는 저 힘찬 연어들처럼" (like those strong salmons that swim upstream in the river).

It was sung by many Korean pop singers. This particular one is by 강산에 (Kang San-Ae). God bless! :)

[elsalvadorplaya]

If you star to do Tae kwon do at the age of 20 is it still possible to do some of the nice kicks that they do in this video. And also be an okay fighter not the greatest just an average fighter

[bigpaul45]

yes and u can do more than that i myself started at 17 and am very good beause i train twice as hard. there are many people who start at 17-20 and some get even to the olympic level even when starting at that age. this is only possible if u work twice as hard to make up for starting late and like i did and another very important thing is to find a ligit school. before u join a class watch a few classes there to seef the students are being pushed to the limit a make sure the master is certified.

[mmatkdfit]

What song is this?

[mmatkdfit]

Professional Taekwondo Players are some of the most conditioned in the world, I would not doubt any of these guys to be able to defend themselves.

[eduardokenley1]

It is beautiful to see. I think will be awesome. But practically in the street? If the way is slippy for instance: you can forget all kicks, especially if they are high.

All seem to be full concentrated. But in a fight in the street, the andreanline is coming high and you can not concentrate any more. Are you, in that case, able yet to defend yourselves?

[9onzalito]

the street is nothing compared with the real taekwondo, and that has nothing to do with competitive taekwondo of you see in youtube.

[ninja8722]

song???

[Nr1NiggAsHiT]

dangun tul

[Sya93im]

Thia vid is awesome...

[naruto6987]

[clivenboy22]

how come they have to meditate on those rocks and jog in the forest?? please explain this to me asap, thanks.

[Haasthefox]

its just the way they do things in korea man. there hard core like that.

[yulaw3]

meditating keeps ur mind clear & sharp.joggin is good fer fitness

[SynxS]

Taekwondo4life !

[clivenboy22]

[9onzalito]

[1guitarrista]

este video está bien chido me dan ganas de seguir entrenando aunk sea naranja y ya este mes paso para verde jaja me motiva xD 택견 검도

[hunggarhulk57]

Taekwondo, way of the foot. Ha. Ha. Ha. Kicking someone in the head is like punching someone in the foot.

[9onzalito]

throw you of a third floor

[xXjOmAmMaXx]

what is the name of the song? i really like it

[exodia94]

the joy and beauty and hardship of taekwondo

[PanxoSabbath]

EXCELENTE VIDEO

[SynxS]

This video always fill my soul of joy and beauty.

<3 Taekwondo

[redeemerfenix]

tae kwon do!!

[9onzalito]

stop talk stupidities please xd

[thi171]

My point of view, A SubMachine Gun is more effective then a pepper spray, but this is a Martial art done by older to be a combat method but now a day, this is a sport and a way to defense yourself, not to be a way to harm someone, or to be better or worst way.

This is a nonsence debate.

[murigno]

Quote !

[taekwondoWTFmaster1]

My ass I'm doing for the right reason Loyalty to my martial art you insult it is like insulting me and try me.AND I will beat you to a pulp in close range longe range so try me.

[TKskateboarding]

before you beat people to pulps go check what your doing with your arms all the time .. or do you wanna look drunk on purpose ?

[taekwondoWTFmaster1]

That's so funny that I forgot to laugh.You think your so smart well in taekwondo we don't only use legs but also hands everything.I will look at what my hands will be doing they will be helping my legs kick your ass.And the only time I got to pretend I'm drunk is when I want to go to bed with your mom.

[rudeEMOboi]

@taekwondoWTFmaster1 lol - what? you are pretending to be no one of those, who train theyre mind too.

probably youre not aware of it, but this video is not made for ppl who just want to kick som easses. and its usuall that most videos concentrade on kicks techniques. MAKE A VIDEO BY YOURSELF where you show tae-kwon-do's kwon techniques ;)

and learn something about beeing a better human

[TKskateboarding]

aight .. so some guy started bullshitting over here so i gave him a load of pepperspray in his face... then some friend of that guy .. a tae kwon do clown came up to me and wanted to play down some hero shit .. i gave him another squirt of pepperspray which costed me like 2bucks .. pretty effective compared to his expensive training lessons.. plus i was high as shit and these guys dont even smoke..

[taekwondoWTFmaster1]

Liar I'm only a blue belt in taekwondo.And if you try to do that I'll beat you to a pulp.

[TKskateboarding]

if you have an 8ft foot range yea . only because i hate it doesnt mean i have no connection to it . i know what im talking about trust me .. and the fact that you want to beat me to a pulp tells me that your not doing tae kwon do for the right reasons

[xpipeishonx]

es el mejor video...simepre ke necesito fuerzas pa seguir pateando...este video me las da...

[alwaysanmggal123]

i love tkd XD

[Mazaloth]

\what is the name of this song?

[alexhughes24]

i think the song is called salmon by Kang san eh

[Mazaloth]

Ah, thanks.

[severio619]

[kingdevilman]

one of my fave vidoes on utube.

I love tkd

[arturogallegosvillar]

its wonderful

[southbest05]

Korea made ITF WTF Taekwondo ITF WTF Taekwondo is from Korea Korea made ITF WTF Taekwondo ITF WTF Taekwondo is from Korea Korea made ITF WTF Taekwondo ITF WTF Taekwondo is from Korea and Korea made 택견 검도 hapkido and Korea made ITF WTF Taekwondo

[HwarangSoul]

Podria ser visto desde ese punto de vista pero me quedo con la ITF por su reglamento y nomativas competitivas.

[HwarangSoul]

que opinas de la ITF?

[brunanburh]

Of all the tkd videos on Youtube this is my favourite- the music just seems to fit perfectly. It reminds me of the time I spent in Korea (Incheon) :)

[pabloerwingunter]

Great video, please, someone can tell me which is the name of the song? Thank you!

[CouncilerHalfJaw]

The name of the song is "Like the powerful salmons swim against the stream of the river" and i want to say congradulation(sorry if misspelled) on the video and fight for honor and pride. Life on fighters

[fighterx615]

IM a wtf fighter but I keep everything clear that itf and wtf are the same martial art i will not use a back kick or a 360 spin heel kick i the street but I do practice what could happen to me in the street. Last all you guys that are low ranks that are not kukkiwon black belts you shouldn't brag about your rank and kicking someones ass you need to keep those kind of things to yourselves and preserve your honor.

[Jalukas09]

Even at black belt don't brag. All a black belt means is that you've mastered the basics and proved teachable.

[tjhllxx2]

true...no offence if anyone tot i was bragging

[brunanburh]

Great vid. People get really passionate about ITF and WTF, saying their form is better than the other etc. Why is this? Surely Taekwondo is all good? I'm just starting WTF.

[chauloko]

They're both good. People just like to think that their style of MA is more effective than others, because of their ego. The debate is pointless. It's all about the fighter and his skill, not the style. Soon both will be gone and there will be just TKD. There's a group of people from both organizations working to unify TKD.

Bruce Lee said that all MA should be just one. Unless there are people with 6 legs and 4 arms out there, there can be only one way to fight efficiently. (I'm paraphrasing)

[brunanburh]

Thanks!

[pauliho01]

What is the name of this song in the beginning?

[felali]

gtf video pls.....

[GTF4life]

i want more GTF videos too pal:)

[nizar94]

Hey,MR.Huelebalas yousaid ITF is better than WTF in your fucking dreams i am a orange belt in taekwondo and i kicked the ass of a muai thai fighter and a ITF so shut and if some says that fights are 90% on the floor OK but if you get him with a yup chagi a.k.a sidekick in the chin or stomach and follow with a tchi chagi a.k.a back in the face he will fall first and give you 90%of an upper hand so it is all about speed and accuracy in your kicks that help you win

[nighthawk07]

Thanks for putting up this clip. Very nice clip. I like to music too. Do you know where I can get it?

[Norgegutten]

i used to go on taekwondo but now i quit, but i have learnd taegeuck sam-jang and i have green belt vith blue stripe.

[Blackhawk1090]

hey dude , if you had the green belt with blue strips you should learned teaguk sa-jang , you need sam-jang for the green belt ^^ ( i have green belt with blue stripes)

[Blackhawk1090]

@norgegutten

[tjhllxx2]

good job keep it up...although im black belt...

[Blackhawk1090]

i'll do ! next week is my next tournament!

[tjhllxx2]

good luck!

[Blackhawk1090]

thank you

[KingSumer]

i like this vid, is super awesome, i've been a few month on tkd chung do kwan and is freaking awesome =p

[yogitekon]

1 of the best wtf tkd vid...nice work....

[PinkPineapples]

chea taeguek 4 at 00:35. which im trying to learn now >>

[Huelebalas]

itf is better

[theatrekid07]

thanks for posting this, Taekwondo has been a large part of my life for several years.This is just what I need right now, I have a competition next week

[kevsmash]

You're saying TKD is a defensive MA? well that kick "defense" at 0:48 is extreme. Moves that have "destruction" in their name, don't sound defensive to me

[threethreethree3]

tae kwon do is at its best when it is recognised by kukkowan (i think that is how you spell it). because then when you are actually black belt any where you go you will be recognised as the belt you have achieved.

[Perticus13178931]

I must agree, Taekwon-do is sure an amazing style and indeed very useful for several things. But I ask again, anyone know the name of this song?

[DamoFez]

great video, it does quite a good job of showing several aspects of this truely amazing great style.

WTF TKD is awesome!

[Perticus13178931]

What is the name of this song in the beginning? *:)

[mrjsmth]

WTF is a sport and is nothing like a Martial Art any more. Its sad but true, waste your time with WTF and you may loose your life in the street.

[DamoFez]

WTF is mostly a sport yes but you cant say that its useless in the street. it all depends how good the person is at the style. Ive seen loads of martial arts people get thrashed in a street regardless of style but then ive seen plenty of thrashings delt by martial artists. it depends on the person not the style and WTF DOES work cos ive used it and still do

[4417955]

i think when you learn how to fight and how to respect other people, u are learning a martial art, and nobody can say thats not just because of the sport side of this.

some ppl can't assume it, but the difference of WTF and ITF its only on the sparring, and we(WTF) can do some puchs on sparring, but we don't do it frequently because its just give you some score if your opponent moves because of that(yes, im talking about the sport side, so we need to look for points).

[4417955]

Now about the martial art side, we have forms(poon-se), self defenses(ranbon/dubon kyrogui)sparring for train with an opponent.

and you should know, nothing martial art nowadys train you for a street fight, but all martial arts nowadays can give u a best chance of winning.

[chaconmcfly]

How can someone reach that high? I've been trying to do a full split for about 2 years stretching everyday for about 15 mins and just can't do it. What's the secret anybody?

[kenji1to6]

i believe the way of doing it is to increase your 'hang in the air' time...

[TaeKwonDizzle]

stretch longer

[decadencetorned]

anybody know the name of the guy at :54sec

[TaekwondoGal986]

He's a master or something isn't he ???

Like a famous one I mean.

[SafriPLKN]

i noe that guy...i ever watch a documentary about taekwondo..he doing his demonstration using his powerful hand..i dont remember his name but i think it is grandmaster shin shul kang..i donno the correct word of his name...

[flame1212]

XD >.< im only white belt XDXDXDXD

[kenji1to6]

work harder man, enjoy taekwondo!!! =)

[flame1212]

yay!!! ty

[djlimits]

your skill is kinda the same as the belt you wear, so I have to disagree on that.

Although I kinda know what he means. But i think belts are important in tkd.

[123tomcat321]

wooo 2 degree? in 3 years impossible

[AznPr1des]

This beautifull music!

Sorry my bad english!

[walterclaudia30]

Muito bom mesmo...

[DaMartialMan]

very impressive kicks. wouldn't like to be hit by one of these. but i still think that high kicks tend to be suicidal, as they make it easier for your enemy to break your balance. when i sparred against my friend - a taekwondoin - he still kicked my ass though ;)

anyway: a very nice video
