A Use of Juchum Seogi in Self-defence


 

Let me introduce an example of use of this Juchum Seogi in self-defence technique. Here, I don't intend to suggest a good self-defence technique, but to suggest how it is important to get exact pose of Juchum Seogi. This example was chosen because it is easy to show if a technique works or not according to whether the pose is exact or not.

This suggests you are under attack of being hugged from your behind (like right picture). To show you the entire process of this technique, you can refer to the next serial pictures.

If you want to see this motion by movie, look at the following.


     

But if you imitate this technique, you will find some difficulty in controling over your attacker in most cases, particularly when he is bigger and stronger than you. It may seem obvious that you cannot control over bigger opponent, but it is not, as far as he doens't know Taekwondo techniques. Actually, this hugging can be vulnerable though he is behind you.

Any way, what I want to say is that you should know the exact point of this technique, not only the overall motion. (If you want to know the general reasons for failure of technique, see Ch. 8-3 of 3JKY.) And the first thing you should know of this technique is the importance of Juchum Seogi, or how it works in this technique.

See the following movie file concerned with the main part of this technique.


     

This movie show a girl, who lacks strong muscle, fails to use this technique. And it is most common situation for you if you don't know exact technique, inclusive of invisible factors. She intends to use her force, not knowing how to drop her body.
