I *was* a black belt in Takwondo before, trained under Master Rhee.
Master Rhee taught special unarmed combat methods to the Marine Commandos, the elite Commandoes' underwater demolition team, Marine Brigade Headquarters and Marine 2nd Infantry Divisions.
The Korean Marines earned a reputation as the world's most feared and courageous troops. Nicknamed 'The Demon Hunter Marines", they were easily recognised on the battle fields and were the most disciplined, daring and highly efficient elite of the armed forces.
Also did Dragon style Kung Fu and Jujitsu, that was the past ... I don't do any martial arts anymore though.
You will find takwondo is great in range combat but if you are going up against wrestler / short range combat, Takwondo is useless. |
