I've just always heard that, when they train, they don't really question the instructors, like people here in the States. But then again, this is only hear say, I have never been fortunate enough to go train in Korea.. Would love to though!

Am sad to said, but i saw some black belts videos of a really basic kicks done really wrong, as those BB had never trained in a long and sorrow time.

 

Here are some BB posting about some easy kicks just like seeking for a new and revolutionry relativity teory.

 

But, as norther as sad. Here we had some students from canada, w/ blue, red and/or black belt that doesn`t know even how to do an ap shagee.

 

Sad will be if nor any of u (exept Carnage) can tell me what is an eugul makee, or a dumbok monton shee. Sadest be if u don`t know wt an ap shagee is bcuz some of your schools had show that can`t performs one as God comands.

Live your day as it is the last, think like gonna live forever.

Ahp Cha-gee = front kick

 

Eugul(?) Mak-kee = Some kind of block

 

As for the rest, I think your spelling leaves a little to be desired, as is evident by your entire post. Check out this link for some Korean Terminology:http://www.isu.edu/stdorg/sports/tkd/glossary.html

One of our Masters came back from a Korean trip a couple years ago, and was absolutely enranged at how sloppy a lot of our Korean colleagues techniques were.

 

Of course, this was only his opinion, and he has high standards. But he definately broke the myth for me.

I don't know about eight hours a day. That is a full time job. I train as much as I can- about three hours every day, and it can be difficult with classes and exams and everything else.

The best a man can hope for

is, over the course of his lifetime,

to change for the better.

where do u find programs to spend a summer training in korea? i'm a university student. and i've always wanted to train in korea for a bit.

 

See if your University has a Study Abroad program. A lot of Unis are tied in with schools in other countries for such purposes. usually you have to have pretty decent grades to be considered, as competition is tight.

 

If I could do it over again, I'd definetely try spending a semester in Spain or another country.

I'm no longer posting here. Adios.
