Plus, leg is always longer than hand. More likely to land a kick before you get close enough to land a punch.
Actually can use hands, in international competition hand block and punching is used quite a lot.peasants\" post_id=\"1902480\" time=\"1552460108\" user_id=\"75885:
Check with you, how come STF sparring dun use hands to defend or punch?
STF follows the WTF rules so punching can only score if it hits a certain area on the hogu( on the chest ), not like ITF can hit the face.
If accidentally hit the head or face is DQ, so quite risky for kids to punch as their control and accuracy is not there yet.
Using hands to defend is a must. It will help you set up a combo-attack. -
Wow, wish you all could see one of the local matches. I go dig the video out.

The way I see it, the strategy and techniques were outdated compared to current international standard.
If our poorer ASEAN neighbors can afford to pay for quality training, why we cannot afford to do it?
Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam TKD has gone on to world stage and won against other countries.
Like with many sports in SG, more money and professionalism has to be put in before we can see any results. -

Can I ask, what is “walk in judo”? As in it is a new cca that will take in anyone, so you just have to walk in? Judo is not in the list of CCAs on the school website.
Yes you are right. High chance of getting in UG. Why didn't choose any? Your dd can also \"walk in judo\". Learn how to fend off unwanted physical advances, not much use in rgs though. -
Means it is conducted outside school with selected dojos and have to pay.

By the way, judo finals coming up. Its R vs N.
