Some applications of Kukki-TKD Poomsae


Recommended Posts

There are a few young Korean masters doing breakdowns of Kukki-TKD Poomsae techniques on video lately. For those who are not Kukki-TKD folks, this is a bit of a novel thing for us. For a long time, Poomsae weren't really considered as important as sparring. And in the past 15 years or so, precision of technique has been the focus of study.

Nice flow. I do like the simultaneous block/strike applications, and then following up with making distance and kicking.

Yeah, his applications are eye-openers to new possibilities for the same old poomsae. His use of his whole body while blocking. Many Taekwondoin talk about using one's whole body in a block, but this demonstrates it in powerful, but small movement that works.
