Just doing tangSoo with a Knife in the hand, might as well be holding flowers. No real knife skill. What is the point?

funny how your profile lists your occupation as martial artist but there are no videos of you!!!

oi. She was practicing, making sure she had her moves correct. I have done Tang Soo Do for over 12 years. This is one of my personal favorite forms. It is full of power and grace, but it has to be practiced first. and always remember... There are two side to the phrase Martial Arts, there is the ultra practical, martial side, and the more flowing aescetic art side. sometimes they combine sometimes they dont, but in the end it is all about having fun and doing something you love.

Having looked at the comments ( I'm the girl in the video) I understand where everyone is coming from, but I was 12 in this video, and hadn't been doing the form for that long after getting 1st dan in the September of the previous year. And like someone else said, I was only practising, seeing how it went with the music.

The form was pretty good and you have nice kicks but there needs to be much more strength especially since you are a black belt and its a knife form.

Can't believe some of the negative comments here! I'm a 1st dan currently trying to learn this form and having a video somebody performing it so beautifully has really helped me. I think the timing and flow of the form looks great with nicely executed kicks, well done Charlotte.

I noticed lots of technical skill in the execution of the movements. Try to add more power and change the timing of some of the movements. The timing of the movements seem very measured, some of the movements are done at a rapid pace while others are measured and slow. Well done overall!

ok, every system has there thories so I will leave the obvious comment out. However, why do women in the arts have a need to over kick and have no kia? Kia is meant to improve power she sounds like she is saying kai as to the actual power producing yell. Shes not bad, the form is fine just no power, she could work on that so no real problem.

@midwesthairshowdown ... and yes it does mean way of the china hand, the tang dynasty in china. but in korean language its not translated in such a simpleton manner and has multiple meanings, hence my argument of "soo do" and yes i am aware that traditionally the uniforms are white trimmed with midnight blue. trying to discredit my argument by saying i'm not wearing the right color so i must not know anything about TSD seems kinda weak... =\

[bankaibecker]

@midwesthairshowdown I've studying Tang Soo Do for 15 years, kudos to your kids who do TSD but if your gonna go on youtube starting debates when you yourself don't even train then I suggest you do something else to pass your time. I'm sure that if KJN Hwang Kee was attacked and had a knife he would utilize it, but as I said before knife forms were never formally taught by him to my knowledge, and therefore anyone doing such forms are practicing something someone else just added in and called TSD

[midwesthairshowdown]

Young lady, keep doing what you do. Practise hard and keep your mind in it. I see a lot of negative comments that I don't like, that's what happens when you deal with people that can say what they want and knows they never have to face you. People can pose to be anyone they want on youtube. LOL! Study hard and remember practice makes perfect, no matter how long it may take! Good job!

[midwesthairshowdown]

The words are combined, sometimes to mean something different. For example, Tang Soo Do actually is translated to mean "Way of the China hand." Are you a Tang Soo Do artist? If so, you need to research the color black, I see you are wearing a black and white uniform.

[midwesthairshowdown]

@bankaibecker My children study Tang Soo Do. I am very impressed with this style. Just because football has the word "foot" in it doesnot mean you only use your foot! A weapon is only an extention of your hand. I am quite sure if Master Hwang Kee was attacked by multiple attackers and a weapon was available, he would have used it! Also, when you are translating, words are not translated as singular words.
