There are many fundamental differences between Taekwon-Do and other martial arts. Obviously, Taekwon-Do has a Korean origin whereas other martial arts such as Kung-fu and Shotokan developed in China and Japan respectively. But, there are three MAJOR differences that separate Taekwon-Do from most martial arts.
1. Taekwon-Do introduced high section kicking and jumping techniques. Prior to Taekwon-Do, kicking techniques were aimed at or below the waist level.
2. Taekwon-Do incorporates a SINE WAVE. This up and down motion helps the practitioner develop more power. The Sine Wave is very apparent in the Taekwon-Do patterns (Tuls).
3. Taekwon-Do utilizes the entire body in order to execute a block or strike. The use of the hips, shoulders and knees also aids the Taekwon-Do practitioner in developing more power.
