IN YOUR FACE


No, it's not. At least in regular fights, you'll never see it like this. As long as you don't crouch when your opponent goes for your body. But when it comes to Poomsae, the common place of taekwondo as a kicking-only discipline turns out as a complete misunderstanding. Here, leg techniques are only 10%. Yes, they impress, but the exercise bulk is made of stances, blocks and hand-based attacks. Among these, fists are the most basic and yet crucial. Fast. Fluid. Steady. You have to put all your strenght into them, and yet reabsorb it as soon as they end their run. Now you're a light butterfly, then you're a marble statue. In Poomsae you undergo a continuous metamorphosis, where a single fist suffices to tell your skill. Fists tell no lies. Truths like fists, they say.
