1St Dan Guide(1)
1st Dan/Poom Grading Guide Last revised July 2012 CONGRATULATIONS! If you are reading this manual, you are more than likely going to grade for your Black Belt some time soon. This is no small thing! It has taken hard work and dedication to get to this point. On average, you have been training for around 5 years in the art of Taekwondo. To give you an idea of how hard you’ve worked in those 5 years, you have: • Participated in over 500 classes • Escaped from over 5,000 attacks during Self Defense • Performed over 10,000 Front Kicks • Kicked or Hit a Bag or Mitt over 20,000 times • Performed over 30,000 Lower Blocks • Performed over 40,000 Chest Punches That’s pretty amazing if you ask us. Your Instructors and I are proud of you and your efforts, but it’s not over yet! YOUR BLACK BELT AWAITS! The most important thing to remember is that you will need to be mentally prepared, no matter how physically ready you are. You could be the best technician in the club, but if you’re not mentally prepared you won’t perform at your best on grading day. Part of your mental preparation is knowing all of the theory related to your grading. This is where this guide comes in. We have included everything you will need to know from Taekwondo and MTC History, to some practice questions that you will be asked on your grading day. Knowing your theory will go a long way to helping you be mentally prepared to tackle you Black Belt grading. -
The Times of Argentina's Master Daechol Yang and His Taekwondo
The Times of Argentina’s Master Daechol Yang and his Taekwondo Jidokwan By Manuel E. Adrogué, July 2020 www.taekwon.com.ar This is an abridged translation of an article I recently published in Spanish, in which I have only left the parts that I consider have interest to the English-speaking world. This is the story of a boy who became a man through his martial art, but it is also the story of a family that emigrates, that of two cultures that meet, a time that will never return and deserves to be known. Ten years ago I published a 200-page rendition of the history of Argentine Tae Kwon Do as an annex to the Spanish language edition of Alex Gillis’ acclaimed book “A Killing Art. The Untold History of Tae Kwon Do“. One of the persons about whom I had to write was Master Dae Chol Yang, who along with Master Lee Chong Seo were the instructors to my own teacher, the late Grandmaster Pedro Florindo. I owe my mentor and friend Pedro the Taekwon-Do I practice, as well as those two gentlemen who in turn taught him. In 1967, Tae Kwon Do arrived in Argentina brought by Han Chang Kim, Nam Sung Choi and Kwang Duk Chung. When Kim decided to travel and forge a future in Argentina, General Choi Hong Hi, president of the International Taekwon-Do Federation, commissioned him to spread Taekwon-Do here. Kim found her two companions on board of the Dutch cargo ship that was bringing them to South America. -
History of Tae Kwon Do.Pdf
Tae Kwon Do History Introduction: Although modern Taekwondo has actually only existed for about 50 years (the martial art known Tae Kwon Do was developed between 1945 and 1955 and only became known as Tae Kwon Do in 1955.), it is based upon Shotokan Karate, another 20th century martial art, and ancient Korea martial arts, such as Taekkyon and Subak, that have lost favor in modern times. Tae Kwon Do is a martial art that means "The Way of the Feet and Hands". Writings on Taekwondo history usually portray Taekwondo as an unique product of Korean culture, developed over the long course of Korean history since the Three Kingdoms Era. However, Taekwondo's primary influence came from Japanese Karate that was introduced into Korea during the Japanese occupation of Korea during the early 1900s. Few written records on ancient Korean history exist, so factual information on Korean martial arts is scarce and sketchy. Because of this, most Korean martial arts writers find something in Korean history to support their claims; writers on Tae Kwon Do included. If one researches the history of Tae Kwon Do, in the research they will find differing and sometimes contradictory information. Majority of this information is a summary taken from Reference 1. For more details, please review the entire material on history of Tae Kwon Do from Reference 1. Origins of Tae Kwon Do: Empty-hand fighting did not originate wholly in only one country, but it developed naturally in every place humans settled. In each country, people adapted their fighting techniques to deal with the dangers in their local environments. -

Evidence of Taekwondo's Roots in Karate
Korea Journal, vol. 54, no. 2 (summer 2014): 150-178. 150 © Korean NationalKOREA Commission JOURNAL for / UNESCO,SUMMER 2014 Evidence of Taekwondo’s Roots in Karate: An Analysis of the Technical Content of Early Taekwondo Literature* Udo MOENIG, Sungkyun CHO, and Taek-Yong KWAK Abstract The taekwondo establishment presents taekwondo as the descendent of ancient Kore- an martial arts. However, during the last two decades, some scholars have begun to question this presentation, contending instead that taekwondo is the product of Koreans who studied karate in Japan during the Japanese colonial years, and then introduced karate to Korea after coming home. A comprehensive survey of the exist- ing Korean martial arts literature published between 1945 and 1970 strongly sup- ports the argument that early “taekwondo” had in fact been Japanese karate, or more specifically, Funakoshi Gichin’s Shotokan karate. Therefore, the assertion that early taekwondo had its roots in Korean martial arts is difficult to sustain.

Moo Duk Kwan
Tae Kwon Do Moo Duk Kwan A Review What is Tae Kwon Do? • Taekwondo is a Korean martial art and the national sport of South Korea. In Korean, tae means "to strike or break with foot"; means "to strike or break with fist"; and means "way", "method", or "path". Thus, taekwondo may be loosely translated as "the way of the hand and the foot.” Source: Wikipedia So, what is Tae Kwon Do? • "Traditional taekwondo" typically refers to the martial art as it was established in the 1950s and 1960s in the South Korean military, and in various civilian organizations, including schools and universities. In particular, the names and symbolism of the traditional patterns often refer to elements of Korean history, culture and religious philosophy. Today, the Kukkiwon, or World Taekwondo Headquarters is the traditional center for Taekwondo in Korea. Source: Wikipedia What are Original Tae Kwon Do Schools? • The Five Original Kwans (Schools) – Song Moo Kwan - founded March 11, 1944 by Ro, Byung Jick. – Chung Do Kwan - founded in 1944 by Lee, Won Kyuk. – Moo Duk Kwan - founded after 1946 by Hwang Kee. – Kwon Bop Bu/Chang Moo Kwan - founded in 1946 by Yoon, Byung-In. – Yun Moo Kwan/Jidokwan - founded March 3, 1946 by Chun, Sang Sup. • Later Kwans (derived from the original five) – Han Moo Kwan - founded in August 1954 by Lee Kyo Yoon. – Oh Do Kwan - founded in 1955 by Choi Hong Hi, Nam Tae Hi, and Han Cha Kyo. – Kang Duk Won - founded in 1956 by Park Chul Hee and Hong Jong Pyo – Jung Do Kwan - founded in 1956 by Lee Yong Woo. -
The Necessity to Know History. in 1945, Moo Duk Kwan Was Found in Order to Spread, Prosper and Create Understanding of Soo Bahk
The necessity to know history. In 1945, Moo Duk Kwan was found in order to spread, prosper and create understanding of Soo Bahk Do (now called Tang Soo Do), which is the special martial art of Korea, and has a long history and tradition. The foundation of Moo Duk Kwan has remained unshakable by the cooperation and efforts of all members and persons who are interested. The fame of Moo Duk Kwan has grown not only in Korea, but all over the world. Now, although technique is very important, theory has to be taught for the purpose of the increase of Tang Soo Do and the martial arts. First of all, therefore, all members must perfectly understand the foundation theory of rational history about the art. From time to time some members who have excellent skills deviate from the right path because they do not know and understand it's true history and the foundation. So it is very important to study history and the foundation theory. The theory of it's origin. The exact origin of Tang Soo Do, as well as karate in general, is obscure. However, there are many equally beautiful theories. An argument continues to rage about the origin of both weapon using and weaponless fighting techniques. Some Japanese karate experts insist that the art is of Japanese origin; some say it came from Okinawa; others say it began in China and spread from there. Although there are various theories and views explaining it's history in Korea, we will consider the Moo Duk Kwan's assertion as described in Moo Duk Kwan's major text book Soo Bahk Do Dae Kam, written by Grand Master Hwang Kee, president. -
Kwan's Name: “Bluewaves” Meaning a Youngster's Spirit and Vitality
The Development of the “Kwan’s” Kwan: in Korean literally means building or hall, but when used in martial arts it can also refer to a school or clan of martial artists who follow the same style and/or leader. At the time, there were 9 major Kwans throughout Korea and once someone joined a particular Kwan, it was very difficult to transfer to another Kwan. When someone wanted to transfer to another Kwan, his original Kwan Jang had to authorize and approve the transfer, but in reality, the Kwan Jang usually threatened the member using authoritative means in an effort to persuade the potential transferee to not leave. This was a critical issue in those days. Chung Do Kwan Established by Won Kuk Lee, seated in the middle and next led by Duk Sung Son, the back row, second from the right. After the independence of Korea, the Chung Do Kwan, one of the five key Dojangs, was founded first. It symbolized Chung Do Kwan's name: “Bluewaves” meaning a youngster's spirit and vitality. Chung Do Kwan's founder, LEE Won Kuk, moved to Japan when he was 19 years old in 1926. While in Japan, he first attended middle and high school, and then entered the Law School of Chuo University. Then he entered Japan's Karate headquarters, the Song Do Kwan (Shotokan). He received Karate instruction from Karate's father, Gichin Funakoshi. There, he learned Karate with Song Moo Kwan's founder, RO Byung Jick. Later, he moved back to Korea and taught Tang Soo Do in the Yong Shin school hall in Suh Dae Moon Gu's Ochun Dong, Seoul because he had a good relationship with Japan's Cho-sun Governor General Abe in 1944. -
NIGERIAN TAEKWONDO – on the Ascendancy -By George H
NIGERIAN TAEKWONDO – On The Ascendancy -By George H. Ashiru TAEKWONDO HISTORY IN NIGERIA A gentleman from Cote D’Ivoire, a French speaking country in the West African coast is credited for introducing Jidokwan Taekwondo to Nigeria in the year 1975.Aikpa Aime was a direct student of Grandmaster Kim Yong Tae, Korea’s pioneer Taekwondo instructor in Africa since 1967. The Jidokwan school became successful and three pioneering black belts of Aikpa Aime; Dominic Bassey, Emmanuel Ikpeme and Kofi Anani, began the great task of building the legacy bestowed upon them since 1977. In the same period (1976), Messrs Don Lee, Jerry Parker and Robert Beaudoin, all Americans, also visited Nigeria in different capacities and introduced the Moo Duk Kwan methods in Western and Northern Nigeria. At this time George Ashiru became a pioneering student of the Moo Duk Kwan school, and later transferred to the Jido Kwan. The Chung Do Kwan school also sprung up in Western Nigeria, pioneered by Mr. Deola Kumpayi. In the ten ensuing years, these pioneers and their junior colleagues had established what became the most successful martial arts in Nigeria. The Jidokwan school later morphed into the Kukkiwon system under the leadership of various foreign experts, notably Masters Guack Ki Ok, then residing in Ghana; Masters Park Jung Tae and Kim, Moo Cheon, who were brought to train the Nigerian Army in 1983 and other visiting instructors. This group organized to form the Nigeria Taekwondo Black Belt College and subsequently, the Nigerian Taekwondo Association that was formally recognized by the Nigerian Government and the World Taekwondo Federation in 1987. -
April 19Th, 1938 - November 28, 1985
(April 19th, 1938 - November 28, 1985) Master Britt By Jesse Elliott: 3rd Dan I enjoyed going through the resources Sabom Medeiros passed on to us for Grandmaster Lee’s 80th birthday. It’s amazing to me that Grandmaster Lee could still be alive today -- 80 years isn’t really that old. But it seems like another age looking back at his life. There are so many stories about him and his training. It seems difficult to imagine training under him and yet, because of all the stories, I can almost picture it myself. The stories about Master Britt have always fascinated me. Master Britt was Grandmaster Lee’s youngest student, he was 12 years old when he started training. I was 10 years old when I started my martial arts training. I have many vivid memories from those early years, but I certainly wasn’t training under Grandmaster Lee. Master Britt was incredibly dedicated and very close to Grandmaster Lee. He was even with Grandmaster Lee in his dying days and was one of the last people to speak with him. On his deathbed, the day before he died, Grandmaster Lee promoted Master Britt to 5th degree, the highest rank Grandmaster Lee had ever awarded. It is inspiring to think of the dedication Master Britt had to the art and to his Master. When I read further about how Master Britt fell on hard times and was unable to teach or train for almost 8 years I was shocked. I had no idea he had been away from Martial Arts at all. -

Yu Gup Ja Training Manual
Independent Tang Soo Do Association YU GUP JA TRAINING MANUAL © Copyright South Hills Karate Academy (Gene Garbowsky) No part of this document may be reproduced, copied or distributed without express permission from Master Gene Garbowsky Published May, 2013 A Message from Sa Bom Nim Gene Garbowsky, Kwan Jang Nim, Independent Tang Soo Do Association As a member of the Independent Tang Soo Do Association, I hope that you will come to re- alize the benefits of training in Tang Soo Do. As you may know, I have been teaching this Martial Art to hundreds of students over the past 30 years. I truly believe that every man, women, and child can benefit in many ways from practicing Martial Arts and Tang Soo Do. What are Martial Arts? It is the name given to the traditional systems of self-defense that have been practiced in Eastern and Western societies for thousands of years. Masters of the ancient Martial Arts ultimately discovered that mastery of the body comes through mas- tery of the mind. Therefore, the practice of Martial Arts is a way to a more fulfilling life. It is a path to freedom from self-confinement and the ultimate goal to mental and physical har- mony. Martial Arts training can absolutely change a person physically, psychologically, and emo- tionally in a very positive way. Regular physi- cal activity energizes the body, and since martial arts are based on natural law, the body can quickly reach top conditioning. Once physical changes develop, they soon lead to the mental and emotional improve- ments that many seek through the martial arts.
