TaeKwon-Do: Double Jumping Kick Break

The Double Jumping Kick Break is an impressive Taekwondo move to master. Let VideoJug's Black Belt Dans show you how to master it.


Step 1:

Preparation

The Double Jumping Kick break is the ultimate test of skill and concentration, as your aim is to simultaneously break two boards, one per each foot, with equal power. This takes focus of immense proportions.
Before attempting an actual break, make sure you're well versed in the basics of breaking.
You could do worse than taking a look at Videojug's other guides to board breaking elsewhere on the site.
And working on your basic breaking skills with plastic training boards - that you can break as many times as you like - will always benefit you immensely.

Step 2:

Practice

You'll need to begin with some intense work on striking with both the metatarsals or ball of your foot for one kick and the heel for the other.
The best way of course is with practice kick pads. Get two partners to hold one each. They should stand facing each other with the pads held tightly at your desired height.
Practice your run up as many times as you like to improve your focus and pinpoint precision.

Step 3:

The break

Ask some fellow masters or students to hold the boards and set them to the appropriate height.
Start from the basic ready position - this is balanced with your feet firmly on the ground and 70 per cent of your weight on your back supporting leg and with your arms and hands up in the guard position.
And now you need to activate complete and total concentration.
But before you try and actually break the board, just take a little time to measure the exact distance you need with a practice run up. Get this wrong, and you could bust something other than the boards!
Return to the ready position one final time and focus on your small target area. This should be just a few centimetres squared for each board.
Now combine your focus, concentration and speed to break the boards.

Well... it is based on a fusion of Shotokan Karate and the Korean Art of Taekkyon (at least ITF Tae Kwon-Do is anyway), which are both ancient arts. So, in a sense it's a modern take on ancient teachings, which makes it sort of ancient itself.

board breaking is really not that hard... i broke boards when i was a white belt... i do japanesse karate. i guess doing a kick like that is quite a bit more difficult, but theyre acting like its impossible to break a board.

just to mention, tae kwon do isn't exactly ancient, it's not really much more than 50 years old, ITF tae kwon do is probably one of the youngest modern day martial arts around. that's not to say that it's ineffective, but it is wrong to call it ancient, because well,, it's not.

They were ITF practitioners therefore you are all wrong, the final kick is known as "two direction kick"

Just so you know its called a split kick because you do the "splits" in mid air
