Please visit www.aimaa.com to learn more about Grandmaster Hee Il Cho.
Grandmaster Cho's approach to teaching is open-minded, so he actually encourages groundwork in the curriculum as well.
My father holds respect for every martial arts style and founded his organization on the belief of keeping an open mind and uniting all styles based on their common principles of character and spirit. He is reaching 70, and continues to train and teach every day since starting TKD in Korea when he was 10 years old. A master is not only defined by the balance of his physical prowess but by the balance of his inner being. Please show more respect and consideration when leaving your comments.
Ah, Grandmaster Cho! I have admired him for so many years and am happy to have met him. Superb skill, amazing speed! A great martial artist!
He is an incredible martial artist. My grandmaster trained with him and one of the stories he tells is how He Il Cho split a heavy bag with a jump spinning back kick.
Truly one of the greatest martial artists there is or was. I have admired the Grandmaster for years. My best wishes for him in the years to come.
As a big fan of Grandmaster Cho (Having all of his books) I am happy to have finally seen him in action! My Instructor was one of the first to train under Grandmaster Cho back in the 70's / early 80's in the UK.
Thank You for sharing these videos!
TaeKwon!
This is wonderful. I used to train with your dad when I was like 8, lol. I'm surprised I remember. He is really great, always adding things to his training. :)
Lucky to have met him...Trained at one of his workshops and graded under him...The Man is a Living Legend
The "Man Of Contrast"! This Taekwondo master and a legend and inspiration to many people all over the world. I read his book in 1979 and it inspired my martial arts career. Many thanks for this video.

FANTASTIC I MEET AND TRAINED WITH THE MAN 20+ YEARS AGO ,I STILL THINK HE IS THE BEST.
though i did not stay with a kicking style for long due to some hip problems, it was Mr. Cho's videos and books that got me started. i went on to train in several other styles but whenever i have students who wish to learn these style of kicks and techniques i steer them towards Mr. Cho's teachings. Even today he is an example of great conditioning and class.
I have trained with master Cho on numerous occasions, and he is just awesome!!
Master cho is just the greatest. A true spiritual warrior. *bows respectfully* May prosperity an health alway be with him an his family.
I was also part of his first group of students when Mr. Cho had a school in Providence R.I. & Cumberland R.I. I was at his Cumberland R.I. school with Bob Thiverge, Dave Zalinski, Bob Cabana, my brother Paul Aubuchon & other highly skilled martial artist. Master Cho was an excellent inspiration.
Mater Hee Il Cho ..is still the best Kicker I have ever seen...And had influenced the next generation of Martial artist..
And am one of them
@grandmasterdaughter I really admire his strength for his age. It's not easy for a person his age to still be able to move like this. I don't think we can find any masters who can still be that strong for this age.
Grandmaster Hee Il Cho is one of the greatest kickers in the world, bar none!
Mater Cho is one of the pioneers of modern TaeKwon-Do!
a true legend in martial arts, and if your really in the know, that you'd agree!
Please everyone, a reminder to keep the comments positive; not just in regards to my father but to all forms of martial arts. It is contradictory to the spirit of the martial arts to keep up these wars of hate comments on one another.
Anyone that has studied for 10 - 15 years plus seriously would understand how good this guy is. You can throw styles outside of the windows, its never about the style, or system. Its about the person doing it, simple as that. Don't ever blame the arts.
It was wonderful,he is amazing.Thanks for this share.
I use to go to his Cho's Tae Kwon Do In Rhode Island in the 70s. I like like 10 years old. I met, was taught by him and remember taking the tests for belts were very though in front of a group of people at a long table judging you.
GM Cho is indeed a living legend.
He was the korean coach on best of the best,he has been on the cover of more martial arts books and magazines than any other martial artist,he has teaching videos.
A true legend. amazing kicks, just brilliant, a true martial artist. No question! respect.
they really were wooden boards. the dark line that was just a part of the wood cuts make them look like they were pre-cut. my family always talks regretfully about the boards being like that, for specifically this reason of people assuming they were prepared in advance. :P
For any unfavorable image or whatever else negative we might give off according to your opinion and tastes, we apologize and hope you understand we don't mean any offense or boasting. I would like to note that I believe my dad at age 67 still teaching all his students from 3yrs - 50+ yrs of age is much more humbler than some of you assume. In all this I write respectfully and don't mean to stir up any more negativity.
Without spaces between boards the board at the back is always the first one to break and the front one the last.
Breaking is used to demonstrate power of technique, and it just so happens it also looks awesome.
Hee Il Cho and Hwang Jang Lee are my heroes!
VERY AWESOME!
I am from rhode Island he was a great teacher..
awesome!
Old Skool TKD, you gotta love it
Notice how when he breaks boards they don't just snap in two. They explode away from his hands or feet. With others this rarely ever happens. So the force and seed Master Cho had....Add he was willing to be filmed. So much footage on UA-cam.
Does any one know if Master Cho was ever a TKD champ in Korea? Did he compete?
Awesome
THANK YOU so much for this video! What inspiration I get from watching it. I was only a child when I read his book _Man_of_Contrasts!
Again, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
High Regards,
Robert
Best Jump-Spin Sidekick EVER! deadly
most people dont know that He ill Choi originally trained in Tang Soo Do long before tae kwon do
I use to have some of his books they were real good you might can find them at amazon you can find lots of martial arts books there.
Good one
armandosainz...true but careful what you say. Trust me, Grandmaster Cho is the real deal. Much respect!
greatest kicker of all time!
My master trained with hee ill cho... he and my master where the orignal students of general choi
If you don't particularly like my my father's style, that's fine; but please understand it's my dad you're talking about, and I'll inevitably remove negative comments that I take personally offensive and find too easy for people to say who have never encountered my dad in person.
you sould come down to hawaii visit his school
Uhhhhh, is it just me, or is there a space in the middle of each of the two boards he's kicking on one of the breaks?
THE GREATEST KICKER OF ALL‼️
sick
He's a bit old now but in his prime he was best of the best
yeh that just means the first board breaks the second. board breaking is only used for show
good vid
9th degree black belt grandmaster cho is. great teacher also
4:03 Check out that RIDGE HAND OF DOOM.
actually, matrial art comes from the french meaning "art of war", which basically means anything involving fighting is a martial art. So yeh TKD is a martial art. And several styles of kung fu had crescent head kicks, so they did exist, just not widely used
Awesome. Perfection at its highest level. He is has been and will always be "THE BEST OF THE BEST." and there is no doubt about it. Those idiots who think that they are pre cut boards, let them get kicked by him once, forget getting kicked by him, heck if i kicked them and if they survived those fools would know what I am talking about.
yes, boards dont hit back, but i dont see u breaking that mean boards without spacers now do it?
UHM, THE BOARDS ARE PRE SPLIT!
@aucteakwondomaster well it is pink here but the official color is white.
I believe, like alot of people who make fun of tae kwon do, you have judged it solely on the sport footage you have seen. 95% of all fights that occor for real are in very close quarters and u dont see them coming. If the attacker is high on cocaine or mid adrenal dump, a pop in the eye wont even slow him down. A real judo throw is designed to snap necks, ju jitsu is for non fixed ranges, and far more tools for quick disposal
is A.I.M.M.A TKD part of ITF TKD?
@RossMc1873 Andreson Silva train in both if you didn't know. He is a prefect exemple off how TKD can benefit to a MT fighter. You want to see another exemple: watch cyrus washington here on youtube he train in both to and have a good fighting record in thailand. Nerver said that they actualy need to continue trainning in TKD for standing, I said the TKD background is usefull to get an edge to classcal MMA fighter.
BTW before saiying to someone "bullshit", learn the fact about Silva
Funny how they break in a straight line..........
Yeh I know... what does that have to do with anything? thats not even vaguely related to what i was talking about...
are those boards already broken at 1:15 ?
I trained in a Master Cho class when he came over to the UK years ago. I could see straight away he was not only a true TKD master but he knew how to make a buck...so what?
Not too sure what his association is doing ATM but they were go-getting and promoted TKD, KIckboxing and boxing.
haha oh that was a good one. so im right :) thank you
I go 2 chos its on montgomery and i am in the adults class my instructors are Sean and Denise Farrell I am a blue testing for purple and i know Mr and Mrs. Corupe from arizona I did a master ameris seminar at del norte in NM at 2:00-2:06 is my form yil-gok then i have to do chun-gun :) Proof enough?
канешна😂😂😂😂
"That just gives you an idea of how lethal Taekwondo is". Umm... well I wouldn't use the martial arts version of tag as a way to show Taekwondo's effectiveness. I'm not bashing taekwondo because if I were to take it, I'd take it for it's flexibility training and apply it's concepts to low kicks.
Just being funny. I'm sure he is.
I admire Cho's technique, but think he was way too much into Hollywood showmanship and getting into every magazine that would have him.
What's the most dangerous place to be in? Between Hee Il Cho and a camera.
id hit everything that moved until I had an opening to get away. I do ju jitsu, not brazilian ju jitsu. All martial arts are awesome and its good to talk to someone who does something different. I was just saying that the board breaking isnt very cool compared to what other people can do :)
A lot of keyboard warriors here...........
Just go to other styles' dojo's and try out your 'stuff' but don't report it here 'cos we won't believe you.
That is .......if you even attend any style/school.
Unless you post a video of yourself, but of course you won't.
Master Cho was fast, powerful and very well trained (i attended a number of seminars with him) i have never seen anyone as good as him, ever.
I've been training for 42 years and i used to try other clubs to see how good i was, some times i beat them all, sometimes i got beat, hey ho.
So go on, post a video, i dare you............
grand master park jung tae was better i suggest you check him out, just a pity cho left the ITF an amazing practitioner none the less though
@aucteakwondomaster + TKD is legit as all TMA today, it is used by many MMA fighter, Bas rutten who have already used it in street fight AND WON, he said it, anderson silva whose kick are faster and stronger than most MT guys, Dan hardy who use his TKD background to throw a fast knee to kick combo, saw it in their HL... it's a good fighting style but represented by horrible fighters (for the pure style).
last thing the "gi" is white not pink.........
@GetatMD man don't try to be like that ... you will get hurt, after 10 years of TKD an some street fight (to defend myself) and the spinning kick is use only as a finiching move even in sport TKD, watch the high light on my channel an you will see that it's true, they don't use spinning back an spninning hook that often. oh and BTW spinning kick are not the fancy kick i'm saying here. and you reply to a year old comment???? that reply to a douch that bash TKD??? think before saying something kid
@ActionSamwise 2 weeks but you need a reply, TKD and most TMA are not ment be just an amusement to send in youtube video, all of the TKD VS MT I see were bullshit, why,
1- TKD fighter = amateur fighter, Muay thai = pro ring fighter. pro agaisnt amateur = win for the pro most of the time
2- TKD is not about fancyness and the demo here is just a technical demo not a fight.
3- in a fight, TKD teach to never use fancy technic that never work. don't see many spinning kick in tkd competition.
no. It looks like shit. The boards used are pre-cut and re attached. might show accuracy but not impressively. Now go watch an okinawan or kyokushin karate demo, those guys hit solid wood without it breaking but at full force. THAT is scary. This is bullshit
I WANNA FIGHT THIS GUY..BUT HES TOO OLD NOW
Boards don't hit back - Bruce Lee
what with the stupid disco music???
sorry judo and ju jitsu rules.................!
