Martial Arts
Martial arts as we know it today many people use it the wrong way such us,throwing harm others, Hit the vulnerable, but people in the past they let martial arts tech them respect and how to deal with bad situation. Today many type of martial arts came out such us, karate, muaythi, taekwondo. Taekwondo and karate are not the same at all about 90% of Omani people think that there is no different between taekwondo and karate that’s way in this essay I going to explain the difference between taekwondo and karate.
Taekwondo fighting style it's different from karate, taekwondo use 80% leg and 20% hands but karate uses 50-50 and if you ask what's stronger karate or taekwondo? I well answer you with what's stronger leg or hands? In this essay I well talk about three main ideas: the deference between taekwondo and karate, the challenge that you well face in each type of martial arts, the deference between taekwondo clothe and belts and karate.
Taekwondo and karate became much more popular these days not like in the past people didn’t know taekwondo us we know it today they only know karate. Taekwondo is Korean martial arts that were invented in the 20th century.is a punching and kicking martial arts with much more focus on the kicks and taekwondo now is an Olympic sport. Karate is an Okinawan martial art from Japan (reference). There are many kinds of Karate, and each of them has their differences. However, they are all punching and kicking arts. Some are more defensive while others emphasize offense. In Taekwondo there is many type of kicks about twenty types of kicks and each kick has its own style and its own effect on human body but in karate they focus on the punching instead of kicking because they believe that hand can kill a man much more faster than a leg but we all know that’s kicking is much more stronger then punching and is stronger and in taekwondo if you don’t have flexibly you can do any type of taekwondo kicks but in karate you can because they don’t have

    When Tae Kwon Do became popular in Canada it strengthened the mind and bodies of practitioners. The attributes of Tae Kwon Do made people more behaved and respectful. It taught adults and children how to defend themselves from a threat. Tae Kwon Do also strengthened individual communities. Communities would gather for classes, belt tests, and tournaments. I know when I went to the a tournament, all my fellow grasshoppers, and parents bonded and cheered each other on like never before. When I talked with Master Jerome Cabanatan at the tournament, he told me “It's great that we’re all just coming here and spreading Tae Kwon Do, that's what it's about, coming here and just being here.” Tae Kwon Do strengthened…

    Jong-chul explains that taiko means drum in Japanese and is a form of drumming that originated from Japan. Taiko drumming came to the United States in 1976 when Seiichi Tanaka attended the San Francisco Cherry Blossom Festival and noticed that the celebration was missing the sound of the Taiko, so he started the San Francisco Taiko Dojo. Soh Daiko spawned positive, strong images of Asian Americans that other Asian Americans could affiliate with. This image helped displace negative stereotypes that were often associated with Asians. This was a good thing because Asian Americans were able to see themselves through a new light because of the positive images that Taiko drumming produced. Taiko is Japanese in origin, however it is able cross ethnic boundaries between Chinese, Korean, Japanese and so on, but this formed tensions because some Asians do not like being classified with other Asians. With the examples the author provided in the article, which were quotes from members of the Soh Daiko group who were not Japanese American, it really showed that the parents of the members of the Soh Daiko group were really upset over the fact that they were playing Japanese music as well as performing in Japanese clothing, because many of the members were of…

    The feeling when you connect any type of punch from a jab to an uppercut is overwhelming. When you hit that shot that sends your opponents mind spinning, causing them to form a strong turtle clenching their head into their own arms. On the ropes now, ears up like a Merkat, waiting for heavenly sound of the bell, which seems to be light years away. Whereas you on the other hand, find this new form of energy after connecting the power shot. You feel regenerated, as if you drilled a hole in their energy savings and robbing them each punch you throw. You see the tremble of their knees, see the wobble in their stance. Pushing them further into the ropes, now cleanly sweeping and picking shots when you barley had the energy to start the round. The sound of the bell seems to be on fast forward every time you connect you favourite shot. Your opponent falls to the ground helplessly, you look towards your coach, he’s never been so proud of you. All the work pays off, you thank him for what he put you…

    Now we will discuss the many differences of these two sports. The main difference is the fact that in the UFC the fighters can kick and knee each other, in addition they can bring their opponent to the ground. This makes MMA a much more dangerous sport, although some say it requires less skill and timing than boxing. Another difference is the type of court the battle takes place on. In the UFC the fighters collide in an octagon with a fence, or cage, around it. In the sport of boxing the two men compete in a square ring with ropes around it.…

    Becoming a Black Belt has been a dream of mine since I first came across a similar sport, Kung Fu, when I watched the 2010 The Karate Kid. Although Kung Fu and Taekwondo are not exactly the same thing, to the 11 year old girl who had never seen this sport before, I was very much intrigued by it, and thus started my five year journey to becoming a first-degree black belt. I first started Taekwondo under Master Kevin at American Martial Arts in 2012. Walking in for the first time, I felt discouraged seeing my class filled with little kids almost half my age and size. However, I continued in order to accomplish my goal of becoming a black belt.…
