They say TKD is more on sports than MA...

I've always wondered what the difference was?!

HUGE difference...

comparing TKD to "traditional" MA is like comparing Baseball to Basketball. The only think they have in common is that they both use a ball and even the ball are different sizes.

Yeah because some people ask what sport do you do and I'll say "TKD" but if someone ask me what type of MA I am in I'll also say "TKD". See you really don't catch your self so I kind of would refer to it as both but it does depend.
