As an i4 yr TKD man ( 3rd Dan), 5 yrs in Wing Chun and back in Martial Arts at 66 and a Shotokan white belt I thought the standard pretty good. The Lady impressed me most! Great form in the Katas

[@shannonfrye6449]

ITF guy here, you guys ROCK! Especially the woman at the 10 minute mark - very sharp, precise and controlled techniques. Great stuff!

This was enjoyable to watch. The female had the crispest form and her stances were impeccable during her three katas. She is very focused and precise.

i enjoyed watching this, a good standard, i don't know that much about tang soo, but it does resemble a shotokan looking school compared to alot of the tang soo schools i have seen.

[@deanmuhammad]

Pretty impressive, I didn't realise tang soo do was such a complete art

[@AnthonyRiddle]

Very nice variation of Bassai. I like the small changes done to it. These guys have really good power and technique. This is a really good Martial Arts school, I can tell by the quality of the students that this is a great school

[@petecatalano3843]

I don't care what color her belt is, the young lady at around the 10 minute mark is impressively skilled! She is a lethal striker with both hands and feet
