Toi-Gye Tul - Taekwon-Do Lesson #57

[@MKillBill]

Thank you for these videos, Sir. There aren't a lot of good demonstrations on ITF forms on the web, but your breakdown of each movement, along with the multiple camera angles makes your videos the best resource on the web right now.

[@MathewMcDougall]

Thanks GM Donato ... i look forward to your videos and learning from you,

[@paulmercy5455]

Thank you Grand Master Donato. Most excellent content in your videos. Hugely beneficial on my TKD journey. Even if I watch Chon Ji or basic techniques I learn something new every time.

[@badfrederick89]

Beautiful pattern with some difficult movements. Thanks

[@edwardscott3192]

Thank you GM Donato Nardizzi for your display of Joong Gun Tul well explained from Master Edward Brian Scott of Australian Taekwon-Do Ki-DoKan International, Taekwon.

[@caspere8510]

Thanks this helped me a lot. I am going for my black stripe in 2 hours and I hope I make it

[@DonatoNardizzi]

Good luck.

[@caspere8510]

@@Naruto2025-u8t i passed that day! But sadly i never got my black belt because i stopped with taekwondo because of corona and a knee injury (tore my acl and also had a tear in the meniscus)😕 ive had 2 surgeries for it but i still have a lot pain. Hope to get back at taekwondo one day though! How about you?

[@ollerehnquist5561]

Thank you Saseongnim!

[@joeltbasham]

Any chance of getting a practical application for these Patterns? I mean how is the "w" block six times applicable? other than looking...interesting?

[@DonatoNardizzi]

Each of the movements in the patterns have been covered in other lessons where I show the practical application of the movement. W-Shape Block is covered in lesson #52 of my TKD Lesson playlist. The W-Shape Block is not very practical against a single opponent compared to other alternatives. It is better suited for blocking two attackers. However, it is included in Toi-Gye Tul as an exercise for building muscles in the abdomen and it is done in stamping motion to help accentuate the hip jerk. So it more useful as training exercise. That is why it is repeated 6 times in the pattern. Not all movements in patterns serve the purpose of practical fighting techniques. Some are included for aesthetic reasons as well. Perhaps general Choi included this movement for aesthetic reasons as well.

Gracias gran maestro su explicación es siempre de excelente calidad. Saludos desde Colombia

[@ObsessedAwe]

Great channel! For the love of the art. Thank you.

[@MasterKamote]

Taekwon! A big thanks Sir to your videos about pattern. I learned a lot GM. Hoping soon you'll do it with Blackbelt Patterns, btw I'm a 3rd Degree Blackbelt who really loves Tul. More power and Taekwon! A big fan of yours Sir here in Philippines.

[@christopherddrew7555]

Thank you GM Donato. We (my wife, myself, my 10 yr old son) just earned our red stripe last night, and your videos are always a helpful supplement to what we learn in the Dojang. We're looking forward to tackling Toi-Gye.

[@DonatoNardizzi]

That's nice. A family training together at the same grade. Well done for passing to 3rd Kup.

Wow epic from Germany .... I am your old student

[@kharam4]

Thanks GM Donato for the corrections

[@tilecleaningagents]

I’m a beginner and have watched all your patterns which are very easy to follow, thank you. I wonder if you could avoid adding music to your videos please? It’s very distracting, especially because I repeat your video multiple times during my training. It’s also better without music because I would be able to hear your breathing pattern too. Ta !

[@hb1196]

Thank you so much for the fantastic tutorials. I'm looking for one about the Choong-Moo Tul. Does it exist yet?

[@DonatoNardizzi]

Thanks. Choong-Moo tul is not done yet. I will be doing Hwa-Rang tul very soon and then move on to Choong Moo tul.

[@JH-lc9st]

Sir..in relation to the x fist pressing block in x stance in Toi-Gye..is the block executed a short time after landing in x stance rather than at the time of landing.to give you time to assess which block to use depending on what the attacker has chosen to do? We are blocking something like a front snap kick I think in the pattern but in real life you would not know that when you initiate your jump towards the potential attacker. So I wonder what scenario might General Choi have envisaged? Thank you.

[@DonatoNardizzi]

Good question. You block slightly after your feet land and at the same time as you finish the X-Stance (when the knees have finished bending). In a real situation the block can finish before the kick arrives because all pressing blocks are like checking blocks. When you shield the low section it is called a Pressing Block. When you shield the middle and high section it is called a Checking Block.

[@JH-lc9st]

@@DonatoNardizzi Thank you Sir. May I ask you about the real life application? I have read in one of Mr Stuart Anslow's books that the original application (and that of its karate predecessor) was to block a rifle and /or bayonetted rifle..in that the defender jumps high and lands on the end of the rifle with his jump, pushing the tip of the rifle downwards, while using his hands to block the weapon closer to the attacker. When we perform it in the pattern it feels a bit unrealistic to me as it seems the attacker almost has to be in position and stay there while the defender executes the jump and block. Thank you again.

[@DonatoNardizzi]

@@JH-lc9st The applications of ITF Taekwon-Do techniques are given in the Taekwon-Do encyclopedia which says the X-Fist is used to block the tibia of the attacking foot aimed at the defender's lower abdomen.

[@Flynso]

Thanks im about to do a regonals tournament in 1-2 hours thanks for the advice

[@RaminRamesh]

sir, you say the terminologies in English like (jumping X stance) the same as me, while some says the techniques should be said in Korean. which one is correct nowadays in the world?

[@DonatoNardizzi]

Both English and Korean are valid terminologies since the TKD Encyclopedia is available in both these languages. It is important to use the exact terminology as in the encyclopedia. Many instructors incorrectly make up their own terminology. For example, they may say Axe Kick instead of Pick-Shaped kick. You mentioned Jumping X-Stance. In my video I say X-Stance but there is no such thing as a jumping X-Stance. You can jump and form an X-Stance, as in the pattern.

[@RaminRamesh]

@DonatoNardizzi Yes, correct x-stance. how it is called in korean then?

Hello Sir, I'm trying to brush up on my ITF patterns after a looooong lay off (and grading with a non-ITF Ch'ang Hon club). Will you be doing any of the higher level patterns such as BB patterns?

[@DonatoNardizzi]

Unfortunately, not for a while. I need to finish of Hwa-Rang and Choong-Moo Tul and also make some other videos on other playlists.

I learn Tae Kwon do from an Engineer KIM EANG, in NAM KWANG CONSTRUCTION AND ENGENEERING that was 1978 we were together in bunker every night we shared styles because I learned from Great Grandfather Garote (nowadays known as Kali or Arnis) and Kuntao Silat before it known as Kuntawan Silatan. He shared to me those pattern from Chong gie to Khe Bek but as I follow your vlogs or video there is a slight difference in movements and approach and its explanation I puzzled which is proper and correct. Is it new approach?, a standard to be followed? by an Association or it depends on the school. As he reveal to me he was a North Korean a former soldier defected to South South Korea, please guide me for proper pattern. I am a Filipino from Southern Mindanao need your comment regarding the subject or matter for enlightenment.
