- Have you ever wondered where the techniques of Taekwondo come from? Does it seem strange that the techniques of Karate look the same as the techniques from Taekwondo?
In this video, I explore the origins of Taekwondo, along with how you can apply the movements of the forms or poomsae. Check out this exciting guide into the history of Taekwondo!
Also, make sure to visit my website and try out one of my free courses:

Shotokan is the orgin of Tae Kwon Do.
I recommend reading “A Killing Art” by Alex Gillis. Which goes into great detail about TKD’s origins and tug of war history.
I’ve read it, it’s very propaganda heavy so I’m cautious to take it at face value, but yes, I think it’s a good one to at least be aware of.
Any other books you would recommend for those of us interested in learning the history of tae kwon do (and karate?)

@@tkdguide Interesting, I just read it, but I was not aware of the propaganda part. Could you please elaborate on that?
@@WinserEspinal a lot of people like to ascribe super human powers to historical martial arts figures. For example, do you think someone can stab their hand through the flesh of another human?
those spanking sounds 😆
I just fractured my ankle from taekwondo n i always liked researching taekwondo history during downtime
Politics had a hand in the creation of modern Karate, it had a hand in the creation of Taekwondo, it has a hand in the ITF-WTF split and probably other things related to the general martial arts world
Indeed it did.
In before all the ATA guys come in here crying that TKD is over a 1000 of years old and uniquely Korean... while totally ignoring the factual history of the art they reference as TKD's ancestor hwarng-do was actually a grappling style like jiujitsu. Not to mention all ancient statues/glaydon vase's/texts depicting hwarang-do (actual museum artifacts), show it as a grappling style only, hence it is nothing like TKD and more a long forgotten Korean jiujitsu system.
Interesting, I didn’t know ATA made that claim.
Per the official ATA website: historians believe it originated from a Korean martial arts form known as t'aekyon practiced over 1,300 years ago. Just google full ATA international History because it seems when I link to it the reply gets removed.
Shotokan Karate are missing many ‘pieces’ from original Okinawa karate, if not a water down version…
Hahaha, I like how you imitate Jesse Encamp's accent!
He is such an excellent UA-camr.
the jesse quote was unexpected, even got that accent down 😂
This is one of the best martial arts history videos I’ve seen. Very funny but also accurate
Thanks so much for this video. You killed it. I didnt know about the whole swordsmanship kendo thing, that makes alot of sense.
I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Really like the long range, close range analysis. So many moves have potential as defence and offence. I'm only a TKD yellow belt, but have some experience with Wing Chun. I prefer the close range in sparring, which my TKD clubmates often find frustrating. Will check out the course!
I’m glad you enjoyed! Good luck on your Taekwondo training.
We talking ITF or WTF?
@@danqarious4733 both
I clicked thinking this was a serious video. You say "spank" a little too many times to take anything your saying seriously.
I’m sorry. If you would like to spank me so I learn my lesson I understand.
Awesome video!
Thanks!
Japan was and still til today is one of the pettiest places in the world
I hope to visit someday.
@@tkdguide I’d love to visit Japan but the thought of going is becoming more and more unrealistic for me.
I have tattoos all over the place. And Japan is so petty that I wouldn’t be allowed in many hotels, restaurants, martial arts schools, theme parks etc…
Also japan has a law that the police there can stop and search you for no reason and they have a 99% conviction rate. They have the right to hold you for 28 days or some stupid shit if they feel you are breaking their laws.
Japan has some of the dumbest laws in the worlds and it makes me never want to step foot there.
Thats a nice abridged version of TKD!
Thanks!
This was a condensed, factual, and insightful synopsis on the history of Taekwondo. Well presented. Especially the ranges of combat as time went on.
Karate/Taekwondo has to evolved to meet the needs of the people practicing it.... all roads are worth the journey. I started in the 80's and it's been interesting to see it change over time.
TANG SOO!!! I wonder if the Japanese have a peculiar sense of smell… they apparently don’t like combat arts that are smelly. 🤔
So it would seem.
This is wrong you didn't do your home work.
Even if you just checked on wikipedia you have better understanding.
If I am rude sorry but this video is offence to me as Korean.
If you think about the time frame what you have in here and relationship between Korean and Japan you may want to change something on this.
If you could find this on Wikipedia the video wouldn’t be called “the unknown history”. I’m sorry if the information in the video is hurtful to you, but the fact is there is a lot of fake propaganda history surrounding Taekwondo. If there is a particular point in the video you find false I am happy to discuss it and correct myself if I am proven to be wrong.
@@tkdguide I just wanted to thank you for not even addressing the Taekkyon connection BS that General Choi and Nam Tae Hi came up with in order to sell Taekwondo to the Korean government as a "truly korean" martial art. I love Taekwondo and I am glad it is still a thing today, but knowing the truth about its origin is, imo, a step in the right direction for every Taekwondo practicioner.
