Why do we pull one hand back to our hip?

In this "mini lecture" I dive into the reasons why the traditional basic techniques of Taekwondo are the way they are. One of the most often critisised aspect of traditional hand techniques is the fact that we pull one hand back to our hip while punching/ blocking. I think that this hand that is seemingly doing "nothing" is the most important, and most overlooked "hand technique" in all of Taekwondo! If you look at this "mini lecture" you will learn how to use the pulling hand (Dangkinunson) in an effective way for self defense, and for close quarter combat. If you did not know about this usage of the pulling hand you are in for a treat:-) This lecture clocks in at about 12 minutes (theres a blooper at the end) so it goes without saying that I can not cover absolutely everything, this is merely scratching the surface. I will revisit this part of Taekwondo if there is enough interest to do so, so please like, comment and or subscribe to my channel if you would like to see more of these :-)
