Drysdale’s School Of Tae Kwon Do
Two-step sparring introduces kicking
techniques into the defensive ability of the defender. Combinations of
hand/foot or foot/hand techniques are now used against the defender. This step
sparring format is gradually leading to the one attack one defense and one
counter attack of General Choi Hung Hi. As in all step sparring formats great
attention to technique should always be observed and practiced. Detail to
stances and understanding distance are critical. Students should also
understand the use of proper blocking techniques and counter attacking
techniques to the appropriate vital spots of their partner. Master Drysdale VII
Dan
Basic
Introduced at the
8th Gup Level 1. Both the attacker and defender should be about the approximately the same height. 2. Eye contact should be maintained throughout the step sparring format 3.
Students shall come to attention and bow to show respect to
each other. The higher rank student shall come up from the bow first and the
lower rank will follow his/her lead to show the proper respect to the senior in
rank. 4.
Both attacker
and defender shall come to Parallel Ready Stance. (Higher rank student shall step right into Parallel
Ready and low rank student shall step left into Parallel Ready) Stepping this
way lines both the attacker and defender full facing each other and no
adjustments need to be made 5.
Distance
measuring in not important at this stage. Students should have developed a good
understanding of distance at this point in his/her training. 6.
Attacker will
challenge by stepping back into a Right L/S mid section outer fore arm guard.
Doing so with a loud confident kiap. 7.
Defender will
acknowledge his/her readiness by giving a loud confident kiap. 8.
Attacker will
perform designated hand foot attack or foot hand attack advancing twice.
Attacker must show good stances and technique. Attacker must advance into two
stances when attacking. 9.
Defender will
perform two designated blocks moving backwards. Again, defender will show good
stances and technique. Defender will step back twice – there is no lateral motion
allowed in Basic Two Step Sparring. 10.
Upon completion
of second block. Defender will perform one counter attack – designated by the
Instructor. 11.
If the counter
attack is a hand technique both attacker and defender will step back into a
Right L/S mid section outer fore arm guarding block. Note: if the counter
attack is a foot technique the attacker will first set his/her attacking foot
to the front and both the attacker and defender will then step back into their
guards. 12.
Both attacker
and defender will step forward into their parallel ready stance and move onto
the next formatted sequence set by the Instructor. 13.
Original
defender will now attack likewise form his/her Right L/S mid section outer fore
arm guard and follow above procedures. 14.
Both attacker
and defender will continue until they have completed right and left attack
leads. 15.
As in 3-steps,
performing both right and left lead attack adds balance to the students
offensive and defensive tools.
