I can't agree with that. There are those from the older, classical 'original' styles (like myself) who have never done any 'sport' or 'spectatorship' aspects of TKD. IMO, the more modern 'Kukkiwon' TKD is 'sport' and 'spectatorship' oriented, but there are many out there who do not. Including myself. <> Does this mean I'm a feisty one?? ;-) Mac ________________________________________________________________ Sent via the EV1 webmail system at mail.ev1.net --__--__-- Message: 3 From: "John Franich" To: Date: Mon, 20 May 2002 16:29:54 -0800 Subject: [The_Dojang] Martial Art vs. Martial Sport Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Chereecharmello@aol.com wrote: "'What many people don't realize is that straight TKD is a sport. Many instructors do, however, add elements of other styles... ' "The key word in my original phrase is "straight." By that, I meant TKD standing alone, being taught with its original intention intact - for spectatorship. It was a sport used to entertain the elite." I study Tang Soo do, not Tae Kwon Do, so I'm not defending my own style, but I have to question the assertion that the original intention of TKD was a spectator sport to entertain the elite. I, for one, would like to know the source of that information. Would you please provide a reference? --__--__-- Message: 4 From: Ray Terry To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net (The_Dojang), policedo@martialartsresource.net (Policedo) Date: Mon, 20 May 2002 18:42:33 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [The_Dojang] Kyusho Jitsu Vital Point Seminars Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net California Series Kyusho Jitsu Vital Point Seminars with Professor Rick Clark Professor Rick Clark (8th Dan), a leading researcher and instructor of vital point techniques will be holding a series of vital point seminars in California in June.
