Coach Aziz Acharki vs master Ky-Tu Dang

Hanbon kyorugi  or one step sparring is a good part in Taekwondo training, and it composed of one attack (ex: where the attacker perform a punch toward the head or trunk using the front stance Ap kubi)  and the other partner defends themselves by using any of the suitable  blocking techniques.
Hanbon kyorugi is a good way to teach the students how to apply blocking techniques that we practice in poomsae or in basic techniques training, and to understand when and how to apply them to defend ourselves.
hanbon Kyorugi is a basic training practiced in the dojang, and it is one of the important parts in the belt promotion tests, that evaluate the understanding of the Taekwondo techniques.




The blocking techniques used in one step sparring can be also used in a street self defense but in a different way, for example you can not force your self to be in  a specific position such as front stance Apkubi, but you have to position your self in the comfortable stance that helps you to react faster.
