My Top 5 Self Defence Techniques in Tang Soo Do

[@SONY95ish]

It's amazing how much Chinese influences there are with this style, especially the low block which is reminiscent of the body strike seen in many Kung Fu styles, it makes sense since Tangsoodo means the way of the Tang fist, Tang as in the Tang dynasty. Btw I knew about this style because of Havik from MK and Johnny Laurence from Karate Kid 😂

[@HOVTangSooDo]

The founder Hwang Kee, studied in China throughout the occupation i heard so it makes sense

[@randomgirl-lj3xi]

Y'know the low block really works, when I was a kid I did martial arts and in my later teens a man tried to assault me. He came from out of nowhere and jumped on me from the front with his knee but my instincts from training just took over and I low blocked which resulted in me falling on my side which was much harder for him to pin me so he got up and ran away. If I hadn't blocked I would have had all my front vulnerable areas exposed and I don't know if I would have been sexually assaulted killed or both. Do all your training seriously and it will help you somehow! It helped a 54kg teen girl!

@@randomgirl-lj3xi I’m glad you’re ok. I love hearing stories of martial arts saving people outside of class. Thank you for sharing

[@ricksanchez2425]

Similar to what I studied in shotokan karate

@@HOVTangSooDo sure will Sensei and thank you so much for replying back

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

I like your list… I think for myself I’d substitute the Yup Cha Ki with the Ahp Cha Ki. I love how Lyoto Machida has used it so successfully in his mma fights.

[@HOVTangSooDo]

I’ve broken more ribs (accidentally) with side kick. So for me it’s my most powerful weapon

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

@@HOVTangSooDo Haha, yes it's a great technique to be sure.

[@kridess225]

I would love to see a top 25 but if it would take to much time I understand

[@HOVTangSooDo]

I think it would get more into specific moves and scenarios, but top 25 would be too much to remember effectively as principles . If you like this video i will do another one like it in the future

@@HOVTangSooDo ok thanks

[@zinhobarros2592]

Solid list!

[@HOVTangSooDo]

Thank you it was very hard to just pick 5. Glad you enjoyed it

I like to learn that style looks easy I already trained in karate judo ninjitsu kickboxing jeet kune do and aie kido

[@HOVTangSooDo]

Welcome to a class anytime. Good Self Defence should always be easy to learn, remember and train

Good evening, Sah Bum Nim. Do you know an equivalent technique in Tang Soo Do to the foot sweep in judo? I am pretty new to the Tang Soo Do world and trying to "translate" my previous martial art background into Tang Soo Do techniques. Ko Map Sum Ni Da.

[@HOVTangSooDo]

So we have sweeping techniques in TSD. The Korean word would be "Bahl Mok Cha Ki" and translates as Ankle Sweep kick. hope that helps

[@maxventura7015]

@@HOVTangSooDo it does!! Ko map sum ni da!

[@kridess225]

Do you have any previous martial art experience??

[@HOVTangSooDo]

Yes

[@stormshadowctf]

Doreo chagi is much faster and more applicable. Otherwise not bad at all.

[@chinodelchicano8332]

I practice shotokan karate and shori Ryu karate it's very similar to tang soo do

[@HOVTangSooDo]

Yes. i'm sure there's a lot of cross over

[@barrettokarate]

Shotokan and shorin-ryu both come from the shuri-te tradition. Tang Soo Do comes from shotokan. They're all related to each other and share some similarities regardless of what other influences has been added to each art.

[@HOVTangSooDo]

@@barrettokarate I totally agree

[@kitchenguitarshred8587]

Leo said he loves tang so do

[@HOVTangSooDo]

Very glad . Enjoy your training

[@kdefensemartialarts8097]

[@alta-i9u]

not bad video. not sure how realistic it is but not too bad.

[@HOVTangSooDo]

It’s just my personal opinion. In reality not being there is the best self defence . Thank you for watching
