bushido_man96 Posted December 4, 2008 Author Posted December 4, 2008 Class with my sons tonight. Concentration on Pyung Ahn Cho Dan again, with the boys slowly improving in knife hand blocks, and grappling done as well. (With grappling, after they push back at me, the "stranger," and yell No! and Stop!, they work on the takedown, jump on me, and squash me as best they can. Beaten up by two seven-year-olds!) Invitation to observe a special JiuJitsu class on Saturday right at my dojang. During the week, some days (after karate) are for Judo, the others for JiuJitsu. The JJ classes on Saturdays lean more towards "street-fighting" techniques, so my instructor thought I'd be interested--and she's right. Sounds like a good time, both ways.Out of curiosity, what was the name of your organization again, Joe? I have a book on Tang Soo Do, and in reviewing it, I see the same names fo the Pyong Ahn forms that you do. Just wondered if they were connected. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com

Not all the organization went along, so it's no surprise to see both Tang Soo Do and Soo Bahk Do with similar hyungs, particularly the Pyung Ahn series, which the Soo Bahk Do organization refers to as being from "Mr. Idos," but other organizations say refers to "Master Itosu."Interestingly, Grandmaster Son has a Pyung Ahn series, based on his own interpretation of Itosu, although in his 1968 book, "Korean Karate," he doesn't refer to him. ~ JoeVee Arnis Jitsu/JuJitsu
joesteph Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 HomeLeg stretchesClassrequired one-step sparring techniques; sparring combos; free sparring; hyungsDuring free sparring:I was first paired up with a fellow adult who is all kicks (they're strong ones if you hold the kick shield), but no punches, and doesn't protect his face. I know he had a bad facial injury in the past during a tournament, and decided this time not to throw as many punches to his face as usual; too easy a target. Concentrated on kicking, even though it's his game, just to see what I could do.Second adult paired up with does just some kicks, roundhouses in particular, but favors punches. Strong fellow. My blocks against his punches "pounded" them down with my forearms, but I have to concentrate more on redirecting.I did much more movement against the first opponent than against the second; have to work on that. ~ JoeVee Arnis Jitsu/JuJitsu

joesteph Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 The book I have is written by GM Chun Sik Kim, who is the President of the International Tang Soo Do Federation. Does he have a link to your organization in some way, past or present?His bio online at Tang Soo Do World can be found here, Brian, with a quote regarding GM Hwang Kee, founder of Soo Bahk Do:He came to the U.S. in 1972 at Grandmaster Hwang Kee's request and spent two years teaching in New Jersey. In 1974 he moved to Pittsburgh. In 1975 he became a charter member of the U.S. Tang Soo Do Moo Duk Kwan Federation and in 1982 was elected Chairman.Actually, GM Hwang Kee was calling his art Tang Soo Do originally, and the US organization, with headquarters in Springfield NJ, was called the US Tang Soo Do Moo Duk Kwan Federation, but the Grandmaster wanted the name change to be more "Korean history oriented," and the name became the US Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan Federation, with the subtitle, "also known as the US Tang Soo Do Moo Duk Kwan Federation."Unfortunately, arguments, politics, and lawsuits (note that GM Chun Sik Kim's International Tang Soo Do Federation can't use "Moo Duk Kwan" in its name) have given the Korean arts a bit of a stormy past. ~ JoeVee Arnis Jitsu/JuJitsu
