Visit from Korea

Yesterday we were proud to train (and drink some beers later, too) with friendly club members who came two days ago directly from Korea. Three older masters (hey, my age - is that old?!?) and three kids.

While youngsters trained in children class hour, three masters, Master Kim Yu Sung(yes, another one, 6th dan), Master Park Jung Kyu(also 6th dan) and Master Cho Byung Gil(4th dan), took part in our ordinary training and made it extraordinary.

Master Kim (that another one) made an emphasize on basic technique and shown us how far our performance is from perfect, regarding execution and proper standing. It is too much to even mention that keeping legs high in the air for more than 10 seconds in same position, then pulling it back and extend to two next higher levels without dropping to the ground - pretty much exhausted us as we are not used not capable to do it so long and with such intensity. But overall, it was great experience.

Without any special inquiry Master Cho participated football warm-up and shown me few tricks, amongst others how to proof back hook kick (dwit-uro-chagi) or pull most of my jump before pulling any kick with full strength.

The atmosphere was extremely friendly and relaxed; too bad guys can not stay but for one more training that should happen on Monday, when fourth master should join us. I could not wait to put some pictures and write a little, so if anything to add appears on Monday, it will be a new post.

For the end, one video of my minority performing imperfect jump kick. Thanks my sweetheart for coming with the camera and making beautiful pictures!
