sensei8 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Let me preface this topic by saying that there's no single technique within the MA that can address every need one might encounter...imho.Imagine if Karate, Judo, TKD, BJJ, JKD, Jujitsu, Aikido, and Capoeira, just to name a few, only had 1 technique...that's it...ONE Technique.What one technique would you want it to be?For me, I'd want a technique that could deliver blunt trauma, for example, an elbow or a knee or a heel. **Proof is on the floor!!!

Zaine Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I think that I might choose a straight punch. While being primarly a strike, one could use it redirect an attack as well.

DoctorQui Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 A very stong maegeri kick to chudan is my technique of choice, particularly a fraction of a second after hearing HAJIME!OSU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wastelander Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Assuming that blocking/deflecting/trapping aren't included, I would definitely pick elbows!

DWx Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 I thought about this... assuming I can only pick one single technique to cover all situations, attack and defense, I'd pick something like a sonkal daebi makgi. (I think the Karate equivalent would be shuto uke). I could then use it as both a block and a strike and as a guarding position.But if I had to chose one technique to carry on the essence of TKD and what the style embodies, it'd be a side kick.

Harkon72 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 For me a Tate Zuki to the solar plexus, with power. If you make it right, they are going down! Look to the far mountain and see all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tallgeese Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 Power double. It closes the distance gap and avoids trading strikes with strikers. Gives you top game against grapplers. Can sometimes be useful vs. weapons. It sets you up to punch down if you really need to hurt your guy or hold for control without damage. Lastly, against multiple attackers it lets you own one fast and possibly break out of any encircling maneuvers. http://alphajiujitsu.com/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJhRVuwbm__LwXPvFMReMww Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuma Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Tai sabaki (whole body movement).Although technically it can be considered technique, it is a bit cheating though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
