so there was a tae kwon do demo at my highschool, guys were from milwaukee wi, usa. An i skipped my 4th hour to watch an i was watching, mainly show stuff, an cool kicks. i liked it as entertainment. then they were breaking retractable boards, and said to everyone that they were still tough to break even though they weren't wood. So they said anyone is welcome to try. i raised my hand as a joke, and i was upstairs watching down. My friends on the floor below saw me and cheered me on, so i went down, acted as if i had no experience what so ever. The instructor was telling me to use my palm and not my fist, and said try not to embarass myself. so they use a weak thin blue board first, i act like im measuring it up, then i break it with ease. the guy says good job, now try this one. Puts up a double thick one, and says dont worry if it doesnt break, i laugh and i break it with my finger tips and was about to walk away after seeing the looks on their faces and then said u got a black one, so i can put all 3 togther, thats what im used to breaking. Ive been in martial arts for about 8 years. and i walk away, and they are just sitting there stunned.
just thought it was a funny story. cuase they had no idea i had any training when i first went up there. I liked the whole demo, but i wouldnt trade in my training for theirs. Too much flash for me. I know many kungfu styles are flash as well, but not mine. Was a good time.
