- Juche Tul has many challenges one being the slow reverse hooking kicks. If you can master the pivoting of the foot in a smooth manner then you are along way to getting this right. Mr Trotter helps Phillipa to achieve this.

Man! This is fabulous. I used to be a TKD black belt, and stopped training due to my job. This has rekindled my interest. Here's to indomitable spirit!
As someone who struggles with Juche, this was great to watch.
Thank you Mr. Trotter. Great video.
All of that looked quite devastating to me, thumbs up with your training
First of all I have to say that these are quite thorough lessons. I am a 4th degree black belt myself in ITF. I have a question for you. In your sidekick position the standing foot is in 135 degrees (more closely to what a dollyo chagi would be 90+45). I see many people perform the sidekick like this. Especially if your splits are in good shape. I tried it in 160 degrees as you would expect in a normal sidekick and it is harder as your body balance changes a bit. In my humble opinion , sidekick should be performed with the standing leg from 145 to 160 (or 75 to 90 if you prefer) as this is the only way to get full penetration using a twisting hip. It is also described like that in the encyclopaedia. This is what I have learned through the years and FGM Rhee has confirmed to me in a seminar for what is worth.What is your opinion on that?BTW I am not criticising at all, just opening a friendly conversation.
+irmasil3 I tend to agree with you. I like a side kick to be fully rotated with the body straight. To do that you need to rotate the supporting foot to point behind you. Officially the angle is 75 degrees (from the side)... so that is pointing "almost" the opposite direction from the target. Between 75 and 90 is good for me. :-)
