Taekwondo training in Korea

[@Kunaimaster1]

These guys are crazy, i'm a 2nd dan right now but i really want to to get much stronger so i can eventually get to the olympics for the Philippines even though i'm in the U.S.A, these guys are very inspiring i wanna work 3x harder now

[@battlesensei]

Even if WTF is a sport, it still takes a superior skill set and extreme dedication to play it at the highest level. I respect that.

[@29622]

Nice, I went there a few years back and trained with them.

[@josephcold]

this is the most famous tkd university in korea, and in perhaps the whole world, my old grandmaster graduated there

[@MaxIce2]

the jackets are to wear them out quicker ...so that they can improve there endurance and stanima ....allows them to push through and last longer

[@kehhvin]

dang man. you know how hard is it too pull off those moves? *respect*

[@shadowstorm89]

@martialartist048 it's called tatami. You can buy it in a martial art store or one of those big sport stores or even online. There a few sites that sell them.

[@KyosaNimGe]

Nice Training!! I hope to go to korea soon and train with them.

[@tkdMarletta]

i love this martial art..........

[@villuzza]

i love getting beat up and beating up its all part of getting better!

[@gooicho]

I guess it was winter there; they are all wearing thick coats and gloves. Big shout to them korean bruhs and sistas!

[@ZEN824]

I wonder when am I going to be trained like this in order to improve my natural kicking skills. my kicks are quite fast and yet powerful. but it's just the beginning and I need to improve my kicks and also my fighting skills. my turn kick is in the same level with his kick but he has an advantage which is his kicks are a little more solid than mine just a little. he's good!!!!!!!

[@Sthriven]

whichever u fits ur style is better for you

[@obeasthead]

kong fu originally started from china, and japanese have simplified kung fu into karate. korea simplified kung fu into taekwondo

[@CASteel1]

Yeah but the rest of the world is catching up. Many Korean Masters have gone to other countries and are teaching the same methods they taught in Korea. Mexico, Iran, US, and Canada are not that far behind anymore.

[@MaxIce2]

no thats just how u train TKD fast and loud good skill power

[@HaykAmirbekyanTKD]

it snot about trianing "harder" jugazhue,m its about trtainign smaer. these guys are training exactly the skills they nee din competition

[@shawnkoolman1]

@bling6 no way because in my kyokushin karate training we do the smething but without the vest yes there some people who have broken ribs but that not very common but i think that the way it schould be done

[@noah9100]

heee hee :3 I'm sure its fun tho :3 I used to get beat up a lot too :3

[@FU0C0]

Is is really cold there? They're wearing pretty thick jackets

[@Chocomunchie]

"YAAAAAA" "EEEYAAAAAAA" God! They scream alot when training! LMAO..

[@legendarystrawhat]

Get up and train your kicks by your self!

[@shawnkoolman1]

i don't know about you pepole but i say if you train and fight constantly wearing a vest on it's not gonna let you get used to pain because that's what your gonna get in a real fight

[@exodia94]

i agree!

[@eshton1234]

no style is the best depends on the individual

[@nuvo1000]

lol yea but its only temporary. like if u have a fight the next day and u need to loose 2-3 kg's to make ur division. i wudnt try it if ur not a serious athlete and have a low resting heart rate

[@xxxpowerfulxxx]

jiujitso from japan but the best of it from brazil

[@schwullhund]

wear can i get a training jacket like they all have???

[@cravo19]

- Parece um Tiroteio... kkkkkkkkkkkkk Cada Chute du Caramba veey!

[@29622]

Not these Koreans. They aren't your average Taekwondo competitors, they're a class beyond. There's a reason why in all 4 years Taekwondo has been in the Olympics that EVERY member on the Korean National Team has won a medal.

[@nuvo1000]

iam guessing to loose weight thru dehydration

[@TKDFighterJoe]

or because it's their national sport... america tends to do fine in baseball (:

[@shawnkoolman1]

@bling6 we don't fight the japanees karate style they run too much we fight the aruban kyokushn style were it's mostly stand and trade punches and kicks till the ther one can't take it anymore for that our sensei's take our top gi's off and start punching us in the solar plexus continuosly and kick us everywere hard! so we can get used to the pain.i just came from karate 30minutes ago i just busted my hand punching a guy and now my foot is completely swollen and hurt like hell and we don't blok

[@obeasthead]

i never said it's something absolutely true, it's something i wanted to share w/ ppl its not from my imagination its something my dad told me

[@chewchoo]

lol i paused it at 2:52, the blue guy was actually lifted into the air, lol

[@imnoobish]

y they wearing jackets.?

[@azngangst3r2o6]

yup alll four gold medals lol but it was really close no doubt

[@noah9100]

yeah... korea got 4 gold in tkd dude :3

[@southbest05]

u know that if u want 2 get in 2 yong in kyung hee uni u also have 2 have great grammar and u also need to b very smart...

[@alanTKD8]

@vockla hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah that was hilarious!

[@eurotkdkid]

theres not just ITF(tip tapping) and WTF..

[@fifeg]

the comment about wearing jackets...its possible they are trying to lose weight but i would say cold. the insulation in a lot of the buildings in korea are not that great, especially training halls.

[@quequien2002]

mexico got 2 gold medals (male and female) on tkd on 2008 olimpics both from the same school, Korea its getting bejind on his own sport

[@imnoobish]

r u srs? ima try that.

[@noah9100]

lolz yeah I'm a korean and I suck it's not like koreans suddenly have a talent in TKD as soon as theyr'e born they're also ppl and for americans, you got the advantage your most likely taller than the korean guy XD i don't see how ppl think ppl are better cuz they're korean :3 I mean I suck at TKD too :3 and I'm so against mr. Jonas brothers HELLO~ I suck in TKD it's just koreans, they have SUPER DISCIPLINE :3 thats why not cuz of the method and koreans aren't sued for getting hit

[@liberalclownshow]

how is it a disgrace? no traditional practitioner could hang in a fight with a top level tkd athlete...i respect the traditional aspect, and all fighters do learn it as part of their belt testing, but the traditional martial art is antiquated for modern day use.

[@orencio1969]

said who?

[@gooicho]

@Akmatmadness69 How many times has an u.s. competitor defeat a korean one? do the math!

[@xxroxaskh2xx]

PAAAAH!

[@kpsran]

This is WTF, not ITF, the traditional TKD. WTF is a sport

[@darken27]

You try fighting one of them then. See how you fare. Oh, and hijacking a plane and crashing it into them doesn't count as a fight. Sorry.

[@Looking-great]

Right hand right on the chin! All over.

[@kpsran]

HA! getting behind on his own sport? as vagrant said, korea had four players, and they all got gold.

[@Jikkozilla]

@vockla ROFL

[@hitmankiddo]

huh!!@@!u could lose weight by wearing jacket?how?

[@aabuini]

Korean's are better then american

[@PrEviNtkdking]

[@hazza3]

I've seen worse.
