Martial arts is like an itch in my brain. I can't turn it off. I have even asked myself why I still love it, even though nobody around me is as passionate about them as me. It's hard for me to find other with real passion for martial as a true way of life, and not a casual extracurricular activity. Its inspiring to see an older adult saying there is still much benefit in old age. It inspires me to keep going, even though people around me don't care about it. Thank you.

He is right. TKD back then was different. It was very tough and hard core. It was much more like Karate. He is also right that as age comes, the body does change. I am almost 62 and done both Karate-do and Tang Soo Do. Things are not like the movies show them. I have found that some styles however are better than others as we get older. But we all choose an art, as we love that art. All the best to all instructors. Keep at it.

@2.25 mins on the left in pic, (your right obviously) is as you know GM Han Wong. I trained under him in the 90s at his Academy. I will always be indebted to GM Han Wong. This was a great watch and a pleasant surprise. 👍✌️

At 55, I no longer affiliate with either of the 2 major TKD organizations. Due to the politics, I have chosen to become an independent instructor.

Would you say Tae Kwan Do more like a karate 50years ago?

@mudokwan1914 Ай бұрын

No. Even modern history shows big influence from old Karate, Taekwondo now is technically different and has evolved into an own branch of martial art.

I have been practicing on and off last 35 years and didn't give up. Now I got my first dan at the age of 58 years. For me it is a way of life and will learn Karate till my last breath 🙏
