I recognise Grand Master General Choi Hong Hi as the true authority on Taekwon-Do. The information in my tutorial is based on my interpretation of Taekwon-Do as taught to me by the Founder General Choi Hong Hi and as referred to in his book ‘TAEKWON-DO’ (5th Edition 1999) Published by ITF and printed in Canada.
Other Taekwon-Do Masters and Grand Masters may have a different interpretation of Taekwon-Do theory and practice, so if you are a Taekwon-Do student, it is important to check with your instructor if you are not sure about which interpretation you should be following.

Very nice video, sir. Great to see side checking kick demonstrated properly, especially, since after Gen. Choi died many people seem to have begun executing that technique in slow motion.

[@Boria83]

Hello sir. I have found your lessons very helpful and I have watched all of them a few times. They have helped me progress a lot in my Taekwon-do training. I was wandering if you are planning of continue your lessons? I'm sure I am not the only one appreciating and anticipating them.

[@jamesau4135]

Same here. Really hoping sir will make more tutorials soon.

[@michalischristofi1273]

Great defensive kick for self defense. Also very good for sparring as you can use it to a rushing opponent as defensive kick and follow up with punches and roundhouse kick.

Good night Grandmaster Donato, I have watched all of your demonstrations and lessons on your video. I have watched all lessons from 1 - 69. Can you send the other lessons from 1- 5?

[@barzooeliassi1412]

Thank You maestro! Can You please illustrate How to do a proper tornado kick, in a jumping and non-jumping fashion?

[@meandeanmma]

New follower...thank you for posting these videos...I'm a 1st degree but my wife and I just had a baby recently and I haven't been able to get to my gym to train so these are great to at least keep my mind sharp

[@MatiasPalacios81]

Great explanation GM.

[@jamesdwyer2382]

Hi sir, just inquiring if you have plans to make more videos discussing the black belt patterns as well?

[@TheMegazaya]

Another good video Sir and very useful

[@rstinnocent]

Thank you master... Great video

[@solarjudgement4575]

I'm curious how well this technique would work against a roundhouse to the front leg as the muay Thai fighters would do?

[@igorbakovic5451]

Greetings grandmaster. Is it possible to train the front checking kick from a walking stance? Or is it necessary to train it from an L stance? Thanks in advance for your reply. Cheers.

[@allanrodriguez9753]

excelente sr. ,thank you for share..

[@mohiuddinwaresi6351]

sir, I found a military form (poomsae) on youtube. I would like to learn it. The basic movements are same. But the way combine is really dynamic and impressive. Will you kindly demonstrate it to us?

[@thevangoghlavenderexperien938]

Hi Sir, as far as checking people’s attacks, is it considered cheating if you check a low kick (Below the belt) with your shin (tibia bone)? I did this at an ITF tournament a few years ago and the competitor was unable to finish the sparring match as a result (her knee was injured after her kick). She thinks that I cheated because I blocked with my shin. What do you think?

[@DonatoNardizzi]

This thechnique is not allowed in competitions. It's for use in real self defence.

[@HouseofTaekwonDoRheine]

Very Good! thank you!

[@badguysephiroth]

But can you pull a person's heart out and show it to them while it's still beating?

[@jayve4433]

How can a shorter person be successful against a tall opponent in sparring, tournament or street self defense

[@hakonballovarre7047]

69 nice

[@catfirst2593]

Don't put stupid music over your lessons please. We are not in here for that.
