The Necessity to Know History. in 1945, Moo Duk Kwan Was Found in Order to Spread, Prosper and Create Understanding of Soo Bahk
The necessity to know history. In 1945, Moo Duk Kwan was found in order to spread, prosper and create understanding of Soo Bahk Do (now called Tang Soo Do), which is the special martial art of Korea, and has a long history and tradition. The foundation of Moo Duk Kwan has remained unshakable by the cooperation and efforts of all members and persons who are interested. The fame of Moo Duk Kwan has grown not only in Korea, but all over the world. Now, although technique is very important, theory has to be taught for the purpose of the increase of Tang Soo Do and the martial arts. First of all, therefore, all members must perfectly understand the foundation theory of rational history about the art. From time to time some members who have excellent skills deviate from the right path because they do not know and understand it's true history and the foundation. So it is very important to study history and the foundation theory. The theory of it's origin. The exact origin of Tang Soo Do, as well as karate in general, is obscure. However, there are many equally beautiful theories. An argument continues to rage about the origin of both weapon using and weaponless fighting techniques. Some Japanese karate experts insist that the art is of Japanese origin; some say it came from Okinawa; others say it began in China and spread from there. Although there are various theories and views explaining it's history in Korea, we will consider the Moo Duk Kwan's assertion as described in Moo Duk Kwan's major text book Soo Bahk Do Dae Kam, written by Grand Master Hwang Kee, president.

THE HISTORY of TAEKWONDO by Glen R
THE HISTORY OF TAEKWONDO By Glen R. Morris A Report for Recommendation Black Belt Testing 1994 Before I get into the history of Taekwondo, I would like to define what it means. I read the definition from many books and the one that I like best comes from the book Comprehensive Asian Fighting Arts (1) written by Donn F. Draeger and Robert W. Smith. "Taekwondo is an empty-hand combat form that entails the use of the whole body. Tae means "to Kick" or "Smash with the feet," Kwon implies "punching" or "destroying with the hand or fist," and Do means "way" or "method." Taekwondo thus, is the technique of unarmed combat for self defense that involves the skillful application of techniques that include punching, jumping kicks, blocks, dodges, parrying actions with hands and feet. It is more than a mere physical fighting skill, representing as it does a way of thinking and a pattern of life requiring strict discipline. It is a system of training both the mind and the body in which great emphasis is placed on the development of the trainee's moral character." Taekwondo is a martial art that in "todays" form of self defense has evolved by combining many different styles of martial arts that existed in Korea over the last 2,000 years and some martial arts styles from countries that surround Korea. Taekwondo incorporates the abrupt linear movements of Karate and the flowing, circular patterns of Kung-fu with native kicking techniques. Over fifty typically Chinese circular hand movements can be identified in modern Taekwondo.(1) A few of the earlier martial arts styles that contributed to Taekwondo are: T'ang-su, Taek Kyon, also known as Subak, Tae Kwon, Kwonpup and Tae Kwonpup.

Curby1 ABSTRACT. Published research after the 2004 Olympic Games indicated that in the combat sports of boxing, taekwondo, Greco-Roman wrestling, and freestyle wrestling, the combatants in red won more often than those in blue in each sport. This prompted several subsequent studies, including team sports, the role of judges and ofﬁcials, and other factors that could contribute to a unfair bias against what is thought to be a random and benign assignment of uniform color. To further examine a possible competitive bias in wrestling because of uniform color, this study examined the results from the 2015 Senior World Wrestling Championships.

Biomechanical Head Impact Characteristics During Sparring Practice Sessions in High School Taekwondo Athletes
CLINICAL ARTICLE J Neurosurg Pediatr 19:662–667, 2017 Biomechanical head impact characteristics during sparring practice sessions in high school taekwondo athletes David M. O’Sullivan, PhD,1 and Gabriel P. Fife, PhD2 1Department of Sports Science, Pusan National University, Busan, Republic of Korea; and 2Department of Health and Human Performance, Texas State University, San Marcos, Texas OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to monitor head impact magnitude and characteristics, such as impact loca- tion and frequency, at high school taekwondo sparring sessions. METHODS Eight male high school taekwondo athletes participated in this study. The head impact characteristics were recorded by X-Patch, a wireless accelerometer and gyroscope, during 6 taekwondo sparring sessions. The outcome measures were the peak linear acceleration (g = 9.81 msec2), peak rotational acceleration, rotational velocity, and Head Injury Criterion. RESULTS A total of 689 impacts occurred over 6 sessions involving the 8 athletes. There was an average of 24 impacts per 100 minutes, and there were significant differences in the frequency of impacts among both the sessions and individual athletes. In order of frequency, the most commonly hit locations were the side (38.2%), back (35.7%), and front (23.8%) of the head. CONCLUSIONS The data indicate that there is a relatively high number of head impacts experienced by taekwondo athletes during sparring practice. According to the rotational acceleration predicting impact severity published in previous research, 17.1% of the impacts were deemed to be a moderate and 15.5% were deemed to be severe. https://thejns.org/doi/abs/10.3171/2017.1.PEDS16432 KEY WORDS biomechanics; injury and prevention; acceleration; trauma AEKWONDO has been an official Olympic combat 7.1–11.7) compared with 2.3 (95% CI 2.2–2.4) per 1000 sport since 2000 and is well known for its full con- athlete exposures, respectively.

A History of Taekwondoаа the Three Kingdoms of Korea
A History of TaeKwonDo by Isaac Myers (2016) Throughout the years, TaeKwonDo has evolved in many different ways. TaeKwonDo means “way of the fist and foot” or “the art of punching and kicking”. Its roots date back to over 2,300 years ago evolving into the two main TaeKwonDo organizations currently active. They are the International TaeKwonDo Federation (ITF) and the World TaeKwonDo Federation (WTF). The Three Kingdoms of Korea (300 B.C. 676 A.D.) Around 300 B.C., the peninsula that we now know as Korea was three separate kingdoms. The first and the smallest of the three was Silla (57 B.C. 936 A.D.). The second and by far the largest in both population and landmass was Koguryo (37 B.C. 668 A.D.). The final kingdom was Paekje (18 B.C. 600 A.D.). There was a great war for territory raging between the three kingdoms. This war lasted until Silla conquered Koguryo and Paekje and unified the three kingdoms in 676 A.D. The HwaRang th The 24 king of Silla, Chin Heung, ordered a group of young men to be trained in the ways of the bow and arrow, sword, spear, and SooBak. SooBak was a primitive form of foot fighting, using some hand techniques. The king called these individuals the HwaRang, meaning “Flowering Knight.” He also ordered a Buddhist monk and scholar, Won Kang, to train the HwaRang in the Buddhist religion and the art of Korean culture. Won Kang developed a code of conduct for the HwaRang. The code of conduct included five basic rules.
