Self-Defence (Hosin Sul): How to release from a grab (Jappyosul Tae): While standing: When the waist is being held from behind

“Releasing is performed in three different ways: either by a direct attack to a vulnerable or vital spot, breaking the joint of the attacking hand or arm, or by a logical releasing motion which is usually accompanied by a counter attack.” – Gen. Choi Hong Hi (Vol.5. p.278)

“The defender must know how to make use of his or her opponent’s momentum and force, while utilizing his or her dynamic and reflexive actions against momentarily undefended target.” – Gen. Choi Hong Hi (Vol.5. p.278)

While standing: When the waist is being held from behind

X (attacker), Y (defender). The roles of X and Y can be reversed so that both practitioners can practice all movements.

Method 1

X: Bend forward from the waist, and with both hands hold the waist of Y, from behind Y
Y: Bend down from the waist and with both hands grab one of the legs of Y.
Y: Lift the leg by pulling it upwards while straightening up. The hold of X will be released and X will fall on the ground.
Y: With the right back sole of the leg perform a stamping kick to X.

Method 2

X: Bend forward from the waist, and with both hands hold the waist of Y, from behind Y
Y: With the right hand grab the middle finger of X’s right hand and pull it backwards. Go on pulling until the hold of X is released.
Y: With both hands, pull the right hand of X, move the left foot to the rear and twist by turning clockwise. The right hand of X will be bent.
Y: With the right hand, bend the wrist of X’s right hand, while with the left hand press the elbow of X’s right hand. Further pressing may break the wrist or the elbow of X.

Taekwon-Do is a practical art; hence it can be learnt only from an instructor. Words, diagrams and videos can help only as a reference, and they cannot replace an instructor. Expert practical guidance from an instructor is invaluable.

“Certainly the most important asset any training hall can have is a good instructor. There is no substitute for a well-trained, intelligent, perceptive and patient instructor.” – Gen. Choi Hong Hi (Vol.6, p.17).
