Book excerpt: The eagerly anticipated updated return of a bestselling martial arts classic The leaders of Tae Kwon Do, an Olympic sport and one of the worldÍs most popular martial arts, are fond of saying that their art is ancient and filled with old dynasties and superhuman feats. In fact, Tae Kwon Do is as full of lies as it is powerful techniques. Since its rough beginnings in the Korean military 60 years ago, the art empowered individuals and nations, but its leaders too often hid the painful truths that led to that empowerment „ the gangsters, secret-service agents, and dictators who encouraged cheating, corruption, and murder. A Killing Art: The Untold History of Tae Kwon Do takes you into the cults, geisha houses, and crime syndicates that made Tae Kwon Do. It shows how, in the end, a few key leaders kept the art clean and turned it into an empowering art for tens of millions of people in more than 150 countries. A Killing Art is part history and part biography „ and a wild ride to enlightenment. This new and revised edition of the bestselling book contains previously unnamed sources and updated chapters.

Download or read book Taekwondo written by B. T. Milnes and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-23 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 'lost' form is a form that was once practised often by the students of a martial art, but which in time has been forgotten, and information about it lost. Taekwondo is a relatively new martial art - being only sixty years old as of 2015. However, in that time, there are a few forms which have been forgotten. Unam is one such 'lost' form. Practised in the formative years of Taekwondo, the only evidence of it that remains today is in Choi Hong-hi's first edition Taekwondo textbook in Korean. (The form never made it into the English editions.) Now, more than fifty years after the form has been practised, B. T. Milnes has translated the section of Choi's 1959 textbook that describes the movements of the form. With this book, a supplementary text to Taekwondo Forms, find out what became of this ancient form, and why we no longer practise it. This book contains a line-by-line translation of the movements of the form, with detailed annotations as to what particular words and phrases mean, and how the terminology has changed in the decades since. The book also contains a discussion about the form, and a description of the movements using modern terminology, so that you can practise and perform the form yourself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present INTERACTIVE BOOK expands on the evolution of Taekwondo as an Olympic sport, revealing the hidden parts of a competition, supporting everyday training in theory and describing every technique used with combinations in detail (Kinesiology, Kicks, Punches - 477 techiques). Emphasis is paid on categorizing kicks and kinesiology and organizing techniques into homogenous categories with the purpose of making their learning and use easier and in the right way. The book contains EVERY (Kinesiology and Kicking) technique, without exceptions, that has been used in Taekwondo - WTF competitions throughout the years. The change in sparring regulations substantially affects the use of techniques (some techniques are being favoured more often, some are being marginalized, etc). The reader has an opportunity to find and choose those techniques and combinations that suit him/her better. Each technique is broken down in variations of attacks and counterattacks. The basic form of the technique is described first, followed by combinations with other techniques and variations, according to level of difficulty (easy to difficult). The order in which the techniques have been assembled facilitates faster learning, enabling the reader to memorize them in a sequence and use them later on in sparring automatically, from memory alone. Technical execution and tactic used in competitions are described in every move, taking into account other parameters such as flexibility, injuries, analysis of advantages and disadvantages of every movement, common mistakes committed by trainees, and the negative consequences of mistakes. The book consists of 402 pages and contains 24 Chapters. The Theory part includes: Analysis of competition Taekwondo, Brain function in competition, Injuries (causes, prevention, treatment), Improving Performance, Teaching & Methodology, Technical components of kicking, Evolution of competition and training as a result of the electronic scoring system.
