I agree, many parts of Taekwondo applications would be similiar to Karate's Bunkai and Kumite. We should learn from each other and cooperate.

Taekwondo came from Shotokan and blended with Taekyon.

@@tombslasher so did kyokushin. We cannot talk about kyokushin without disgussing it's Korean and Chinese influences as well as shotokan and goju ryu karate that it is mainly based on.

I’m doing the same with Muay Thai and Shotokan

@@tombslasher It's less like blended with Taekkyon and more like took aesthetic inspiration. Taekkyon isn't a practical martial art, at least not now, and you would be hard pressed to find any significant number of practioners today, after the modern revival, let alone 70 odd years ago around the founding of TKD by general Choi. It's more like entirely Shotokan Karate but modified to look noticibly different, and to focus on kicks, so the martial arts would be considered separate. That being said TKD has developed a bunch of kicks, especially high kicks and spinning or jumping kick's, that don't really exist anywhere else. The axe kick is one of them, and is pure TKD (originally developed for breaking demonstrations among other things).

I dislike because as most empty hand fighting style most practitioner do not even crouch or wave from roundhouse ,turning back kick aiming for the high. no matter how fast a kicker if a an opponent is also fast in ducking to catch the standing leg or bump his body into the stretched leg to tumble the kicker.

Kyukoshin 😊
