ITFUnity,

you ask in an earlier post what kind of power generation the other schools were teaching. At the time I was in GTI (former TAGB) and they were teaching waist-twist and reaction hand. Around that time there was also a very patronising, butt-licking article in UK MA press about someone being taught 'true TKD', not 'outdated waist-twist'.

I can assume what a ''waist twist'' is in general but what is a ''reaction hand''?

Just curious.

Like left hand 'back to hip' from punch position as you punch with right hand.

Do it at the same speed and it adds to the waist-twist power.

At least that's what we were told :-)

Well what would the punch position be? And back to hip would be a ''traditional chamber'' or something else?

Is it basically when you hit with your right hand you ''pull back'' your left?

Yeah, but the pulling back/chambering is also to add power (apparently). If you look at something like Wing Chun or boxing, the use of the chamber/reaction isn't as pronounced (if at all), whereas in TKD (especially waist twist) it is used to generate power as well.
