I love Tang Soo Do. I waited till I was 49 years old. I made a great decision. Since I was a young man I wanted to get into martial arts. I know it's late in my life but I'm truly enjoying the journey. And my overall health and mental state has improved. I've lost 25 pounds. And my flexibility is so good now. Tang Soo. 👍👍👍
Chuck Norris trained under grandmaster Jae Chul Shin (who passed some years ago) who was the founder of the World Tang Soo Do Association,during the war. He started his american fighting arts federation after that. Chuck Norris is a huge reason i ever started tang soo do as a kid, did it for 7 years, and picked it up again 22 years later. It's my favorite art, after having tried a few! I love your reasons, TANG SOO!
I love Tang So Do, it was the first martial art I studied 49 years ago... Since then I have studied a lot of different arts, but always kept my Tang So Do for my base art and added other influences... I teach American Iron Fist Ninjuka Tang So Do as it is called and still love what I teach from the versatility of the combined arts with my Tang So Do...
That's awesome, thank you for sharing. Tang soo do loves you too im sure.
My base is and has been TSD, although over the years I have practiced Boxing and BJJ, TSD gave me solid foundations and values, discipline and respect, which I apply to this day...OSS!!!
A train currently in Wang Chung, however when I look at the forms of TSD I can see the Chinese influence and the beauty of the forms and the practical application great video
I. Come from Chi town and in gang infested areas. And learned the was of the Street,( environmental awareness ) and I teach Kenpo for 27 years . I have learned Concepts ,and principles. for every action there's a reaction learning how to see things before it happens. It taught me honor and respect . A s build relationships, help those to build them up and teach them it takes one to save one. That reality is important there's always the what if everybody's different shape ,speed, size ,strength, learning to adapt and evolve and how to use alphabet of motion and putting it into vocabulary of motion it's kind of like Writing Your Own Story as someone is attacking you and putting it in your own words . Love your way of thinking my brother. After this is all over with this virus issue. Would love to train with you . Be safe brother God bless
I’m currently training in Tang Soo Do and have been for a couple years. I’m currently a Chodan Bo which is the furthest I’ve gotten in any art. I like it better than tae kwon do and Kung fu as I felt that there was a lack of practicality where are I found that in TSD. We too have a duality to our training. Great video, Tang Soo!
I studied MU DUK KWAN and SHOTOKAN and GOJU RYU SYSTEM, One thing I have noticed is that TANG Soo Do forms are much performed beautifully and and kicks are the best of any Martial Arts. Tang Soo Do is my style too... now.
I really enjoyed this video. I must admit I didn't know what Tang Soo Do was until 2001 (I started martial art training in 1995 , stopped in 2002 and got back into training 2 years ago). Dispite being aware of it I focused more of my attention on learning more of the differences of Japanese arts. You and your dad have taught me much about Tang Soo Do from this channel.
I did Shotokan from 1985-87, was so broke I couldn't afford the grading fee (was a student).
Now I'm 55 and I started in TKD,and like it, but I'm thinking of switching to TSD.
This is a fantastic channel,there's a very open and healthy attitude towards other arts!
Such a fire video! I am the 2022 Tang Soo Do World Champion, every aspect is on 👌🏻
This man is using the words I would use to describe American Kenpo; an amalgamation of traditional karate styles of martial arts. Unfortunately, there zero American Kenpo instructors near me, so much like finding a new church, I think you have helped find my next step in martial arts. Thank you 🙏
Wonderful!
I would like to know more about the history...
Thanks for the sharing.
Respect. I love Kung Fu for basically the same reasons. Wish I had started training as early as you did. But glad I train now
This video was randomly suggested to me -- just realized that's Justin! I used to play in a band a long time ago and I remember him letting us use his dad's dojo for shows, with his band too!
I hope all is well man.
Love that hat Japangeles is one of my fav brands. Love the content I just started training in Tang Soo do. TY
Thank you ! Love my hat, one of half Japanese students got it for me.
Glad you like the content, how do you like Tang Soo do so far
I am a 2nd Dan but have been out of training for 12 years. Starting back up next week at Christian Karate Academy Bartlesville Oklahoma. Loved this video. Looking for form videos to refresh.
I have a 1st Dan in TSD. It definitely has a place in my heart.
Tang soo!
Well done sensei. Tang Soo!!! 👊👊👍👍
Tomorrow is going to be my first day class of tang soo do im so excited 🙌
I trained in moo duk kwan TANGSOODO as a teenager and my mom made me quit. I just now started training again at 45 and wish I wouldn't have waited so long . I really hope I get back into the swing of things.... I sure am sore....
Once a martial artist, Always a martial artist. Goodluck for your martial art journey brother. Tang Soo!!! 👊👊👍👍
Great thoughts especially on how you train.
I attended 1 of 5 original schools owned by Chuck Norris in the old part of Torrance, CA. Circa 1966? I broke my left foot in 3 places kicking him in the shin while testing. He didn’t even blink! 😅 i recall he really enjoyed dining at a little hole in the wall Mexican restaurant just across the street from the studio. Then he would enter, jump upside down and contact the ceiling with both feet before flipping right side up and landing calmly 😊
I like the little dragon form number 2, I learned it at a white belt. It flows so smoothly
Thank you !
I'm a 1st Degree Black Belt in Taekwondo Jhoon Rhee style Started at age 11 and studied for about 10 years in which I earned my black belt. Unfortunately I stopped martial arts for about 12+ years after that. But this year I'm going jump back into it and learn Tang Soo Do for the exercise and that I just love martial arts in general :)
I want to learn sooo bad!
I enjoyed this video. I am 2nd degree black belt in tang soo do as well but ours are a little different our grand master is song ki pak. From Daegu city and he received his black belt from his father at a young age and taught our military. Our tang soo do is pakkwan tang so do our forms resembles tae Kwon do we practice kicks more that the hand techniques
Hurricane757 xRC I have a question pakkwan is not a chinese style?
I did soo bahk do, woch is similar to tang soo do... And it was actually a great martial art
Just started training in Tang Soo do. I like it a lot. Was doing jiu jitsu before and didn't like being on the ground.
That's awesome!
I have a question have you heard of world tang Soo do and if so why do you prefer America tang Soo doo what do you believe the differences are?
Believe it or not, I have trained in four different versions of American Tang Soo Do. I am a 4th Dan in American Tang Soo Do, and a 4th Dan in IKCA Chinese Kenpo.
2 Different Versions of American Tang Soo Do:
Chuck Norris American Tang Soo Do
James Cummings American Tang Soo Do
I like Shotokan katas better it seems more snapping and strength. I know you have tried them. However I don't see the same in your style that's why I like how I was taught my katas. That being said the fluid motion in your style is there for a reason. I like your ideas on how to pressure test. Train in the real I try and do this as well. Only in Shotokan. I respect you and your style either way. Great video.
Sensei Chi I hope you can see my comment because I'm curious can you tell me how does the belt rank in your tang soo do? And what martial arts is mixed in your tang soo do?
What do you think about orthodox tang soo do?
Basically, Tang Soo Do taught directly/2nd generation from Korea (ex. My master being student of Master Leak and (now Grandmaster) Khalid). Then you have the amazing Chuck Norris and others of American TSD. American Tang Soo Do is well rounded, but orthodox tang soo do has its pluses as well. What is your take on this?
I've seen Traditional Korean Tang Soo Do and It reminds me a lot of Japanese Karate, I can definitely see the influence. I prefer our American Tang Soo Do only because of the relaxed, smooth, Chinese flow it has to it. Tang Soo Do is very strong, solid and the basics are terrific though.
@@SenseiIchi Thanks for the reply.
Our Kicks are bone breaking! The point of TSD at it's most aggressive form is to stop the fight quickly with overwhelming force. I miss it. Wickham TSD!!
The hands and feet are interchangeable for each Kata or form. I don’t go by convention I can create forms out of nothing. Forms are based on calligraphy, TKD forms are based on the four trigram on the Korean flag, a modern example of the concept. A more ancient example would be the Tiger crane form of Hung Gar which uses the I shape or Hung symbol. Yes there is symbolism to what you walk in a kata. 7 star stepping, circle waking , the pigeon toes of Ba in bagua, Irimi and tenkan. The taichi circle being the best example of this.
I went from JKA to Shotokai soft power and Egami before internal proper so I it had little in common with Shotokan or even the Korean methodology. There is no such thing as styles in my view.
is there a diference between american tang soo do and traditional tang soo do?
@@barrettokarate thanks
How is American Tang Soo do different from the Korean style?
Ok give me your top 3 reasons why you like your style?
Ok top 3 reasons why I like my style , hope i don't upset anyone .1 the forms are amazing, 2 we have so many techniques you might say we are over skilled. 3 it is simply the best style out there nothing comes close 👊😉
I've been training in Tang Soo Do for 11 months, next month will be a year and I'm at yellow belt working to get my first strip.
Three things I like about Tang Soo Do are the versatility, the diversity in background when it comes to all the influences and techniques, and the community because I've meet and made some great friends.
Strike First
Strike Hard
No Mercy
Cobra Kai
I'm 35 am I too old to start? I did it once before at about age 10 up to 2nd degree yellow.
Just go for it bro get back into tang soo do👍
liked the video, and have the utmost respect for chuck, but the Korean war ended in 1953 with an armistice. He would have been 13ish when the fighting ended. he didnt join until 58
Didn’t loot it
thank you. I do not, but maybe i should...
Sensei Ichi . I thought your forms were awesome. It’s a could go either way kinda thing.
Thank you! What did you like about them?
@@SenseiIchi informative educational and an excellent view into traditional martial arts.
Can you use tang soo do in a street or school fight?
yes
@@SenseiIchi can I win with it?
@@exoticfilms3914 It depends on a lot of things. Are you concerned about something? Are you safe and ok ?
@@SenseiIchi no , I’ve just been watching cobra kai 😂
Sensei ichi I found a video that I think you and your father would like to react to on video , the name is 1973 jhoon rhee championships: team Chuck norris vs team jhoon rhee.
We'll check it out, thank you.
Why sensai a Japanese term nah not Kyo Sa
Except John Kreese would teach his students to do the opposite lol
Hit first!
I currently practice kajukenbo but I've done other styles. I've done jiu-jitsu, wado, shotokan, to shin do, kungfu, kenpo, judo, etc. I've never liked teakwando. I've seen them spar and they never use their hands for punches and gaurding. Their hands are down by their sides and teakwando looks sloppy.
Im new to watching your channel, but would you consider Tang soo do closer to taekwondo or shotokan?
Welcome to the channel, thank you for subscribing.
That’s a really good question. It’s tough because it’s right there in the middle. Tang Soo Do has a lot of the same kids and blocks that taekwondo has and they’re both Korean.
Then TSD has the forms/Kata similar to what Shotokan has. I feel like it’s a mix of the two really.
What are your thoughts?
@@SenseiIchi I had a buddy growing up as a kid that was a black belt in tang soo do, that is kinda what got me looking at the differences between TKD and TSD. I do noticed that Tang soo do seem to utilize bunches more than TKD. Tang Soo Do looks more rugged in a sense.
Corean karate tang soo do 😎😎😎
Oosssuu sensei ichi I been doing martial arts for long time specially karate,jujitsu,aikido, but I never tried American tang soo do, I heard of It. I'd like to give it a try greetings from Mexico
Loved the video! I train in American Tang Soo Do as well and agree on all your reasons. Especially love the freedom I have to evolve and improve and provide my students with my own take on the art too! (Which most recently is more of an inclusion of newaza Judo/BJJ) Would love to hear how your black belt exam/process contrasts with my schools'! th-cam.com/video/F-34xN_F3QA/w-d-xo.html
You're 32? Damn! I thought at the oldest, maybe 28.
Then again, I got carded at 44.
Fitness is a great thing, hm?
Actually he said he's 35 and that he's been training for 32 years, but I agree health and fitness are great things, and they make you look and feeling amazing!
@@eddierivera7206 Oh right. It was so shocking, I got the number wrong.
I have practiced both Tae Kwon Do and Tang Soo Do. They are both great systems.
I agree, thank you for sharing.
Yesss. ✊🇰🇷Tang Soo🇰🇷✊ bro🙏‼‼
I hold the rank of 4th Dan in American Tang Soo Do (not the Chuck Norris version).
Chuck Norris discovered Tang Soo Do? I thought it was Hwang Kee? And he Learned from Jae Chul Shin or are you talking About American Tang soo do? Which doesn't make since to me
American Tang Soo Do was founded by Chuck Norris.
A Korean term
