The piercing scream, like a sound from a horror film, triggered taekwondo instructor Simon An to draw on his years of martial arts training.
Around 4 p.m. Tuesday, shortly after the doors of his family-owned and -operated studio in Texas opened for evening classes, An and his father, his mother, his older sister and his younger brother heard shrieks coming from a neighboring business.
The family of five, each with a fourth-degree black belt, run the Yong-in Taekwondo studio in Katy, outside Houston. They initially ignored the sounds, assuming they came from employees playing around in their break room. But then a piercing “final scream” prompted the family into action, A said.
His family ran to the store and opened a door. There they found a man on top of a young woman with his hands “in [in]appropriate places” as she attempted to fend him off, A said.
An’s father, Hong, yanked the attacker away by his shirt and pinned him to the ground. An’s sister, Hannah, grabbed the girl and rushed her out of the room while An and his brother helped subdue the attacker.
The guy assaulting was lucky it was a Tae Kwon Do family and not Krav Maga. Krav Maga dont take hostages.
For those who don’t know
Krav Maga is the martial art of eye pokes and groin kicks and it’s what the IDF train with
Small pipi vibes
Even if Krav Maga teaches more attacks and more “leathal” attacks. i would hope 5 of them at the same stage as these individuals, 4th degree black belts and instructors, would be able to restrain 1 individual without permanent damage.
When i think of someone that is that well trained i think they are trained in more than just the moves. Going through my martial arts training we were taught the fighting mentality and spirit as well as just the moves.
Edit: I’ve never been through either of these training styles so I’m making assumptions and may be wrong.
My first martial arts lesson the instructor told us that as white belts, if we manage a good hit against a black belt, that’s a good white belt. If a black belt fully hits or kicks the white belt, that’s a bad black belt.
Caught in the act of rape? Permanent damage would not be a bad outcome.
I’m merely talking about the martial arts and their capabilites. not what i think should be done to cunts who can’t keep their hands off other people.
