Although, I will say that traditional TKD has way more attacks with feet than with hands and the clinch ground techniques are very limited, mostly to getting back up to your feet.

thats fine. every art has its focus, but evry art should have other aspects, whick tkd back in the day had.

i agree whem people leave out hand strikes,knee strikes, elbow strikes, and headbutts, they arnt teaching actual tkd, let alone self defense.
