For people who take taekwondo I always see all this flexibility and amazing kicking motions and tricking like the 540 kick and all these other crazy kicks well I just wanted to know how do you guys get so flexible and manage to learn all these moves and I myself want to take some classes to learn these kicks and get more flexible so I can mix my kickboxing up a little. Do all these taekwondo schools teach these moves or only some?? I’m really interested in learning all these kicks 🙂

With all the practice.
The more you train, the more it will come to you. At blue belt they should teach you most of the kicks. Kicks takes 1-2 weeks for training. At yellow belt you should be really flexible, if not then they’re gonna do some exercises that would hurt a lot :).

Those kicks are mainly part of the sport version of tae kwon do. True/classic/traditional (however you want to call it) probably has some of these kicks, since they were used to knock horsemen of their horse. I can hardly see someone being fast enough to pull these off today, but that because many of the schools are bad.
only the sport school teaches these kicks, most of the traditional schools dont use them.
they may look nice but they are not always useful in a real situation

Stick to your Kickboxing classes. They’re much more practical. TKW kicks LOOK cool, but try fighting with them.
