Good on you Dave, theres plenty of folk on here who will ridicule people when they see them but won't put there own performances on. Again good on you mate.
As far as I know he doesnt have any ranking in Kuk Sool Won, he was a 5th Dan in Tang Soo Do. My old association had ties with the Inverness Kuk Sool Won clubs, I remember Ian Cameron was at a couple of my early gradings and we had a few tournement with his students. He also made swords for us.
MADE!? Wow lol. If I've got the right person, he was my centre judge at the UK tourny last November. He promoted to 4th degree didn't he?
thanks buddy. the main reason for me doing it was because of split_level's thread asking if there was a vid of the form that he/she could watch to get an idea of how it's "supposed" to be done :Angel: plus, i wanted to have a play around with windows movie maker
Out of all unfairness, that was really funny Sorry, Dave, I don't know how tall you really are, but it looked like it would have been a devestating side kick to the knee.
you all asked for more vid cilps, well here's one for you http://media.putfile.com/matt-boniwell-sampler tell me what you think
We are part of an independant TSD org which roughly follows the World Tang Soo Do Association curriculum.
i'll assume that is directed and me as ksn matt didn't do a form in his vid so, thanks alot very nice matt, liked the apple cutting
The reason I asked is because I suspected that. Are you interested in the origin of the WTSDA sword forms?
The WTSDA sword was developed by a Master Michael Hicks who I believe is (or was at the time )from Montgomery or Birmingham Alabama. He was a acquaintence of a KSW Master (to what degree I am not sure) who was in or from that region of the country in the late 80's. At some point he adopted the Kuk Sool Straight & Reverse Sword Form and combined them into one hyung, refined and modified some movements, but most importantly he redefined the way the movements were executed, maybe so it was stylistically different. He may have blended sword skills from other sources as well, but I am almost certain the origins are as I have said. I believe it is a Black Belt curriculum form in WTSD today, but I am not sure how it has evolved in the last 15-20 years. It may look significantly different today than it did then. If you are privy to this hyung, and also see the ksw forms please give your opinion of the similarity, if any still exsists.
nice sampler Matt, can see you have been training hard! congrats to Dave for posting first. think i'll have a look at my clips, see if i have anything worth posting. cheers
ok had a quick look, this is all i got to hand. http://www.soundmovement.com/clients/map/ a couple of flips and some techniques, performed by me and JKN Graham (in Generals Uniform) throwing me. you will need the latest version of Quicktime i think? u can get it free @ apple.com if u dont have it. enjoy lets see some more clips!
All the vids in this post and the other kicho hyung are great and really useful. thanks. maybe if we all contribute we make our own MAP Kuk Sool DVD and charge loads of dosh for it cant seem to get the vid to work, i can only get sound?
i sent 2 clips to Youve been framed, they sent them back! said it wasnt what they were lookin for! shame, i could have used the money! as i mentioned bout the clips, you will prob need most recent Quicktime Player installed on ur puter. free download from apple.com
