About the Author ingsley Ubong Umoh was only fourteen when he took his first step from Kbeing an ardent fan of the Hong Kong Kung Fu movies into the practical world of Taekwondo Jidokwan training in the early 1980s.As most inveterate martial artists would discover, the exciting world of flying kicks and somer- saults was very different from the hardships of intense training so difficult that it would sometimes appear that the master was actively trying to discourage his students from continuing further classes. Thus was taught the first lesson of perseverance and indomitable spirit. He counts himself fortunate to have trained variously with different instruc- tors to achieve different perspectives which are important to round out one’s knowledge of Taekwondo.

  • Dear Taekwondo Family, This Manual Is Dedicated to All of the J. W. Kim
    LETTER TO Students Dear Taekwondo Family, This manual is dedicated to all of the J. W. Kim Taekwondo students and instructors. We have been happy to provide this resource for our students in all of its various iterations since we first opened in 1995. I have designed this manual to help you understand your belt test requirements as well as answer many of your questions to help you excel in your Taekwondo training. Taekwondo is the most popular martial art in the world and is renowned for its many kicking techniques. It was a demonstration sport at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, Korea as well as the 1992 Summer Olympics in Barcelona, Spain. Beginning with the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia, Taekwondo became a full medal sport. It is now one of only two martial arts with this honorable distinction. Taekwondo has rapidly grown in popularity through the years due to the immense benefits it provides. Many of my students have found greater self-confidence, physical and mental discipline, and improved health as a result of their training. I hope you will all benefit from Taekwondo as I have through the years. Sincerely, Grand Master Jung Woo Kim 1 ABOUT GRAND MASTER J.W. KIM Grand Master J.W. Kim was born in Seoul, South Korea and moved to Sao Paulo, Brazil a few years later where he started in Taekwondo at age 4. He proceeded to win many prestigious tournaments and became a well known competitor. Ever since he achieved his black belt, he has been actively involved in teaching and coaching Taekwondo.

  • The Taegeuk and Palgwe Forms of Taekwondo Are Paradigms of The
    跆拳道品勢 The Poomse of Taekwondo By Ronald A. Southwick ©2005 KEON SEON TAE 1 5 2 GAM 6 3 RI 4 7 8 JIN GAN GON Taekwondo Poomse (品勢) are paradigms of the martial art. They contain the basic physical movements and philosophies from which the art was derived. Also known as hyung (型) or forms, Poomse are a series of basic attack and defense movements put together in a preset pattern and performed against imaginary opponents. The techniques, delivered in a realistic fashion, allow the practitioner to develop strength, breath control, balance, power, focus and self-discipline. As Taekwondo developed, numerous traditional forms were created or imported from its parent arts. On January 30, 1967 the Korean Taekwondo Association adopted sets of 8 Taegeuk (太極 ) and Palgwe (八卦 ) as the standard forms for Gup (級 grade) holders, and nine forms; Koryo (高麗), Kumkang (金剛 ), Taebaek (太白 ), Pyongwon (平原 ), Sipjin (十進 ), Jitae (地跆 ), Chonkwon (天拳), Hansu (漢水) and Ilyo (一如 ) for Dan (段 degree) holders. Poomse serve as a Taekwondo encyclopedia. Each new form introduces new techniques, which must be mastered by the student to advance in rank and skill. When the movements and techniques from all the Palgwe and Taegeuk forms have been learned, the individual is ready to become a Cho Dan (初段) or beginning black belt. The Yudanja (有段者) Poomse develop the practitioner’s skills into the Dan levels. Poomse do not necessarily teach us fighting, they show us the methods and behaviors to excel in martial arts training. Poomse Theory The words Taegeuk and Palgwe essentially represent the same thing, the universe.

  • Family Moo Do Academy. You Have Taken the First Steps on the Path of Learning the Ancient Martial Art of Tae Kwon Do
    WELCOME! Welcome to Family Moo Do Academy. You have taken the first steps on the path of learning the ancient Martial Art of Tae Kwon Do. Senior Master Anthony Boyle, 7th Dan black belt, has over 35 years teaching experience and he and others in your class will bring their experience to you. We know that the strange terminology and ways can be confusing at first, but do not be afraid to ask. Before you know it, you will feel as comfortable as those who have gone before you. DEFINITION OF TAEKWONDO “Tae” means “foot” or “to strike with the feet”. “Kwon” means “hand”, or “to strike with the hand”. “Do” means discipline, art, or way. Hence TaeKwonDo (foot-hand-way) means literally “the art of the feet and the hands” or “the art of kicking and punching”. However, different schools and or styles may impose different variations on the formal definition. For example, some styles add the words “self-defense” to the literal definition and/or throw in some form of the phrase “physical and mental training”. TAEKWONDO CODE OF CONDUCT There are some rules of courtesy and conduct that should be followed in the dojang. Pay attention to the rules. In class, techniques and weapons will be practiced which could injure you and your partner if they are not performed with the necessary focus. The skills learned in Taekwondo are to be used to prevent conflict and violence. Never should a Taekwondo student initiate or start physical conflict, and the techniques of Taekwondo should be used only as a last resort in self-defense or in the defense of another person.
