foofies

that would be the second thing i would do

if you were a 9th dan in TKD what would you do/try to change TKD?? for me : the 1st thing is: Head contact punches allowed in sparring. You?

Judo: http://judoinfo.com/techjudo.htm Jiu-jitsu: if you want jiu-jitsu BJJ has more ground work than JJJ, but that doesn't mean that BJJ is better. for me JJJ is better. If i were you I would go n cheak the Dojo it self. because maybe the Judo dojang is better than jiu-jitsu dojnag near your area. Or the other way around.

I'm sorry, your information is biased on what?? N are you trying to offend my TKD instructor ??

updates: I have an offer to practice shotokan karate for a hole month for FREE in the dojo near my area and I'm starting today. Thanks for the replies guys.

Yes I did. Since TKD also teaches you self control and discipline. I once faced some thugs who strated to talking crap to me, I just turend my back n left the place. well you asked if some1 used his tkd skills on the street and i think thats one skill that tkd teaches.

how about some1 who takes privte lessons?? can he earn the black belt in a year and half?? or it sounds funny??

lol

what about ppl who take privte lessons? can they earn BB in a year n half??

" ''when attacker does this, you do that..." "when an opponent comes in, you block, grab twist, sweep, twirl, strike, dance on the top of bamboo chasing Zhao Ziyang, etc.You mean shotakan karate is taught like this?? but thats doesnt really work on the street right?? jeez

Then why do people bash it?? the dojo near my area is more from old school too. They don't wear safety gear and sparing is full contact. But I'm not sure if the compete or not. And also not sure if the instruction there is good or not. Because there Sensi is 3rd dan black belt. I'm not sure if a 3rd dan have the skills to teach? My current TKD teacher is 7th dan and his assistant is 5th dan so

Thank you for the reply.
