Thanks 😎😉

Awesome!

Thank you! You’re flexible👏🏽❤️💝👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

can anybody tell me whats in alex's left side's blue punching bag? or kicking pan? or bag?

I have a tip for you: You use the top of the foot (instep) which makes the kick much easier to execute BUT is only for contacting soft targets otherwise your foot will hurt or break. For "business" kicks which will do real damage to the target you must use THE BALL OF THE FOOT for contact. Of course this kick is much more difficult to perform and requires great flexibility and coordination. This latter type is the roundhouse kick used for breaking demos.

Looking good😊

Hey alex, I am green belt but I am not getting the roundhouse king from my back leg only

thank you

Great video,you're so awesome and you motivate me.

Your technique looks great. How do u turn that botttom foot while keeping your balance an still have a powerful kick??

Thanks sister

Do you have a side kick break down video ? I’m a beginner. Trying to improve when I’m home.

Alex Wong would you use the top of your foot in a round kick to board Break?

Hey alex i am your new fan. Plz upload a video about kick up or kip up with easy exercise.

thank you for this video. you look so beautiful when you wear dobok and black belt

thanks for the info alex...Ijust sent you a few to use as well. Happy Holidays to you.

Great instruction. Thanks Alex.

Hello Alex, I'm just learning taekwondo ITF and I want to tell you that I always see your videos, they seem very useful for learning taekwondo. Greetings from Peru.

Landing with the instep of the foot is for class and tournaments. If it's a real fight I curl my toes back and land with the ball of my foot wearing shoes. Instead of it hitting the top of their guard it can go through the guard giving you the penetration for the kick to land. Watch people breaking in competition with the round kick. They will strike with the ball of their foot. It's stronger because of the alignment of the bones in the foot. I teach both ways.

Thanks for the tip... I have a hard time doing the roundhouse kick properly..

Show the front snap and front thrust kick.I just a beginner.

Yeah

🥋GREAT

Can someone's tell me whats the title of this song.. I know its frm ncs but which one..

Taekwondo roundhouse kick is best, it's much more balanced, non telegraphic, accurate and that last moment snap is killer!! Thanks for this video buddy!

Hey alex like the video a long time ago i told did you knew my grandmaster Jack hwang well he invited taekwondo in south korea

What belt dan are you

Nice

Thank you very much Alex.

Your hair looks 🙂 nice... Plus I know I have learn from you. I am a black belt 2nd degree at taekwondo our forms are different of course but I love the fact you practice traditional taekwondo

I wanna see tips!!!

I'm not quite sure why I look all these beginner tips, but hey why not

Oh oh! And you're so awesome with that dobok! Take that as compliment from me 😊 You're welcome, Alex.

I like YOU Alex very much

great tips

💙💙💙

I watched your video on the 360 roundhouse, but do you have more tips on how to work to get them higher?

Instead of the shin does the top of the foot really do damage ?

How to imrove kicks landing on the top of the foot everytime?

How to improve drill doliyo kick

Alex what is your weight category ?

Good video. One difference I have with what you said. I was taught to kick with the ball of the foot. Using the ball of the foot has a lower chance of breaking the foot. Usually, the foot is at a right angle to the leg. Do you agree? Did I miss something? Also, someone can use the ball of the foot to make slight angular adjustments. I mean that sometimes a round kick of a short person kicking a very tall person can extend the distance by changing the angle of the foot.

Why do you want to hit with the top of you foot instead of your toes? I think I initially learned to use the toes, but when I kicked an opponent I usually used the top of the foot. Why is this preferred?

Thank you so much from Samara and Mataeah.

Can you teach use how to do a two touch kick

Alex, I want to learn all kicks properly. I'm 50+ yrs. My getting back into tkd my grandmaster says I kick like mule. Well, immediately I went to control..smooth as another instructor shared. Things are starting to come back to me a little more. Forms are a little different they call them short forms? I'm doing old Palgwe the will to teake as I call it lol. My original instructor old school not just in tkd karate aikido silat judo....and these styles blended into his self-defense program has for over 30 years had a 95+ % rate. He is now going internal like Germany, Denmark, Russia, Argentina and he has asked me to get complete getting my 1st-degree black belt. At present I'm teaching young white belts fresh new starters plus some problem shooting with younger kiddos. Well my dojang is now going Tang Soo Do. Alex, what is the difference? Forms are the same maybe they are more traditional they say now and example in form 3 all moves ( white belt going toward blk belt )is ALL in-out after chops....ok I can and have adjusted but.....before I had my surgery I was blue belt up for red belt test. Family situation came up and that gym was closed a good while. I then joined a Tang Soo Do dojang.good people. Tournaments great trophies but a lot of cliches. I had to start all over just because I was from TKD. I ended up orange 2 stripes ready for my green belt test in this gym. I know I will do it but being older and yes I can kick high but have found my zone in hand speed and kicks. Lots of movement fakes reading body language and staying relaxed got me my last 3 trophies. The one trophy that means more to me is back in 2011 World TKD/TSD. IT WAS life changing.

Hey Alex, I'm new in taekwondo, though I can only kick right on my left leg, I don't get a good position for my other leg, any tip?

i cant roundhouse with my weak leg :c With the other, my roundhouse is perfect

And that is how you turn into chuck norris

🙂

Say Chamber again muckalucka I dare you!

Really good kickers can strike with toes pulled back and touching at the ball, but not me. I can only strike with the top like you demonstrate. Also, we chamber to the side and bring a lot more hip onto the kick. Can just about break a BOB in half with it that way.

How to make hayer

I’m a camo belt In songham Taekwondo, and we are told it can also be called a round kick.

My fav Kick. It stings when you break a board with it thou

It's just something about a woman that can LITERALLY kick my ass... 😥

If your so tough.....then go step into the ufc octagon!

Why do you have your leg at a 45-degree angle when you chamber all of my instructors have taught me to have my leg parallel to the ground when chambered

I was taught to use the ball of the foot

We call that 45 kick (body level) and roundhouse kick (head level)

How can I kick higher

hit that with the ball of your foot. You are using the flat surface of the hammer. use the protruding part, the ball of the foot,to drive the nail.

2:33 damn ! you look so beautiful

Hey y’all I’m Alex

👍🐈❤😛

I had a little more than 10 years training tkd, but I never had intention to be in a competition. This kick has some variations. "dolio tchagui" is ok... It's a circle kick. "Ap tchagui" is ok, is a straight kick. But "bandal tchagui" is a completely useless kick. Just works if you just want make points in a competition.
