Il Gi Dojang Geneva

Taekwondo is a martial from South Korea which is practiced without weapons. Taekwondo is famous for its spectacular kicks but it is a complete martial art with sparring, Poomsae (forms), Hanbon Kiriougui or one-step sparring, Hoshinsul (self defence) and Kyokpa (breaking techniques). We work on all these aspects at Il Gi Dojang Geneva

Kiokpa

Breaking techniques (Kiokpa) is a tradition in Taekwondo. It demonstrates the energy deployed by a correctly executed Taekwondo technique – whereas an incorrectly done technique will often lead to the energy bouncing back into the hand or foot causing hurt or injury and leaving the targeted object intact.
Breaking techniques are ubiquitous in demonstrations, breaking wooden planks mainly, but also bricks or roof tiles. It is also an obligatory part of every grading.
