1 Step Sparring Combat Combat Techniques Techniques For For The The Street Street One Step Sparring (ilbo matsoki) is the most practical of the step sparring formats. It puts together General Choi’s philosophy of blocking and counter attacking instantaneously enabling a student to focus his/her technique into a vulnerable area of an attacker’s anatomy. One step is generally introduced into a students training at around 6 th kup level by most large associations and federations but if a students sole purpose for Taekwon-do training is purely for self defence then a student should be introduced to training methods that aid this sooner rather than later. A problem with most traditional martial arts is that the defence fits the attack Taekwondo against Taekwondo , Karate against karate etc, the attacker kihaps then steps forward and makes walking stance front punch, defender counters punch with appropriate blocks and strikes and then this is repeated on the other side. Fig 1 Attacker steps forward into Walking stance executing front punch By Jason Ainley Fig 2 Defender moves into sitting stance making outer forearm knife hand block while simultaneously making front punch to face The problem here is the attack, in a real situation the punch is very unlikely to be delivered in a straight line unless of course the puncher is a trained fighter e.g. boxer, martial artist, in an physical encounter outside the dojang the opening attack is more likely to be a wild swinging haymaker punch. If the practise of 1 step sparring is to develop the foundation of practical self defence skills then training should be based around a typical street attack. Totally Tae Kwon Do - 25
