That's the dude from Geochilmaru, isn't it?

About the arm swinging, yeah, it looks odd, but real fighting doesn't look good. That kind of movement isn't complicated and is easy for your muscles to remember, and trust me, downward punches do hurt. I like this style, and I'm glad nobody has come on here saying "This wouldn't work in MMA!" and I am an MMA guy, and hate when those idiots represent us poorly. All martial artists are brothers, and there is something to be gained from every approach to fighting.

[bladid]

you can see it when they hit or kick. they are pushing more than kicking (or maybe something like having two hits og kicks in one). when in other martial arts get hit you can tighten your muscles to make the hit minimal. when they first kick and then instantly push by using the momentum from those dance movements they have (quite fun to watch). it's extremely hard for the body to "minimalize" the hits when they do that. so making it a very deadly martial art

[auhroy]

wow that guy really is going thru hard times...after the filming he probably leveled up like thrice

[punhada]

THIS IS FROM WONHWADO AND WAS USED SINCE 1964 BY THE LATE WONHWADO FOUNDER GREAT GRAND MASTER HAN BONG KI. MAYBE THIS TAEKKYON STYLIST GOT IT FROM SOME WHD SOURCE NOT TAEKKYON.

[inyazha]

Its like Taekwondo + jujitsu + speed.

@GuamKomudo:

Hey man, I appreciate it. I always say the best way to beat the jerks is by not being one yourself, you know, just improving what you contribute.

All types of martial arts have purpose and validity, whether they're for self-defense, sport, demonstration, tradition, etc.

Being good in any of it takes hard work and dedication, and at the end of the day, that is what these arts are about, not whether this or that would work or whatever.

Keep training!

[GuamKomudo]

Yeah, it's kinda like, they have that snapping HIT to the kick, that physically hurts your body, but then they do the pushing motion that makes you fall over after. Two kicks in one, I like the way you said that. Taekkyun is definatly something you would need to practice a long time. It's legit, it's made to hurt people, no dout about it.

[GuamKomudo]

I gotta say... Your like the coolest MMA guy ever =D lol I really like this art, but I don't know if it would do that well in MMA because most combat arts don't. MMA is conqured by the sport arts, because it's a sport. Taekkyun is not a sport art, it was made to jack someone up, WHEN the practicioners wern't shooting you with arrows  =) It's a very different art then MMA, it was made to hurt someone to the point of no return,some might know this as, killing =) But I LOVE MMA too lol
