Here are some Rhee Tae Kwon-Do action photographs from July 2015. Throwing and grappling are the main foci of martial arts such as Judo, Aikido, and Hapkido; most people probably wouldn’t associate these techniques with ‘striking arts’ such as Karate or Tae Kwon-Do.
In the first three pictures, we see basic throwing exercises. The attacker approaches from behind and seizes the defender, who responds by pivoting and redirecting the attacker onto the ground.
In the second set of pictures, we see defence against an attempt to grapple. The attacker tries to tackle the defender and take him/her to the ground; the defender sidesteps and redirects the attacker into the ground, face first.
