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. Essentially, students are expected to be model citizens and work for the betterment of their community.

• Wear a clean uniform. Women/girls wear an undershirt. • Do not wear watches or jewelry – they may scratch or cut your partner. (Plain wedding bands without stones are an exception). • Pay attention to hygiene, especially keeping fingernails and toenails cut short. • Keep the dojang (training school) clean. • No horseplay in the dojang. We are here to train. If you arrive early, use the time to stretch, practice forms, or ask questions. • Be on time for class. (if you are late to class, walk BEHIND everyone. Do not walk in front of others. Take your place in the back row.) • Always bow when entering and leaving the Dojang. • At the start of class, line up in order of belt rank, those with the same rank line up older students first. • Bow to your partner before any partner exercise to show respect.

• If you need to adjust your uniform, always turn away from the flags, fix your uniform, then return to your position. • If you need help fixing your uniform, go to the highest ranking student for assistance. • If you need to leave the Dojang during class (to use the restroom, for example), ask the instructor’s approval first. Try to take care of this before class to avoid interruptions. Get a drink before and after class. • Stand still when the instructor is talking or instructing. Do not fidget or talk to others. • Always respond to the instructor’s questions with “Sir, yes sir!” or “Ma’am, yes ma’am!” If you do not understand, ask. • If the instructor asks for your help with something, bow to the instructor after the task is given and before you do it. • Don’t be hesitant to ask other students for help, assistance with forms, or explanations. Arriving a few minutes early is a great way to get questions answered. • We only have class two hours a week but you must train and practice at home so the forms and movements begin to feel normal and natural. • Always try to be the best YOU can be.

DOJANG ETIQUETTE

Upon entering the "dojang" (training hall) students shall bow as a sign of respect for the training area. If the class has already begun before you enter, you will, after bowing, wait for the instructor's acknowledgment of your bow and his permission to join the class. Whenever you leave the Dojang, you should also bow (facing in).

When class is to officially begin, the instructor will ask us to line up according to rank and seniority and “bow in”. The bowing in commands (see page 5) are then given in Korean by either the instructor or the highest ranking student.

During class, proper respect and discipline must be maintained at all times and Dojang etiquette followed by all members. The chain of command of ranks must be followed at all times.

If a student must leave the Dojang before the class is over, he must get permission from the Head instructor, unless he received permission prior to the class.

Do not wear shoes in the Dojang. No one is permitted to chew gum or eat in the Dojang. There shall be no food or drinks in the Dojang training area. Consider the Dojang as your home and treat it as such. The Dojang is a respected place where the "Way" of the martial arts is taught.

Students should exercise care to keep their uniform clean and pressed at all times. Students shall respect their own bodies and keep themselves clean. Fingernails and toenails should be clipped and kept short to help prevent injuries to oneself and other students. No metal of any sort, except eye glasses or a wedding ring, should be worn during class. No head-bands or other articles of clothing should be worn, other than the Dobok (Uniform) and Tee (Belt).

Every participant must participate in warm up exercises before training in order to prepare the body and mind. Failure to do these exercises could result in pulled muscles and a lack of concentration on the part of the student.

At the end of class, students will again line up according to rank and seniority. The commands are the same as during the opening ceremony, except that when bowing to your instructor(s), you say “kahm sa hamnida” (thank you), and the instructor replies with “cheon maneyo” (you’re welcome).

Never ask to learn advanced techniques or the next form. The instructor will teach you what you are qualified to learn at your level. It is disrespectful to ask for additional training when you may not yet have perfected what you are presently working on.

Instructors should be addressed as Mr. (Mrs., Miss.) followed by his or her last name, or for Masters (4th Dans or above) as Master, followed by the "last name". Example; "Master Boyle”. Masters should NEVER be addressed by their first names. It is a sign of disrespect.

FIVE TENETS OF TAEKWONDO 1. Courtesy - Show respect to their instructors, to higher ranking students, and to all others. Be polite and encourage a sense of justice. Students must constantly look within themselves and not be quick to judge others. 2. Integrity - Be able to define right and wrong and have the conscience, if wrong, to feel remorse. Within the dojang one must be honestly making an attempt to do whatever the instructor asks. If you are asked to do 20 pushups, for example, do not only do 10 because the instructor is not watching. Outside the dojang, students must not misrepresent themselves or rationalize their poor behavior (give excuses). 3. Perseverance – Nothing worth having comes easy. Perseverance and patience are required to excel at anything, Perseverance means sticking to it. If you fail the first time, or even the hundredth time – try again. Be confident that you will eventually succeed as long as your purpose is worthy. 4. Self-control – This is extremely important inside and outside the dojang – for example during free sparring or in one’s personal affairs. Good self-control in free sparring enables you to execute stunning techniques without injuring your partner. Good self-control in daily life allows you to work comfortably and confidently with others. 5. Indomitable spirit – Do not be afraid to be yourself and trust your judgment. Indomitable spirit is what enables you to keep your ideals and your identity in the face of overwhelming pressures. It is the strength to reject the things that “everyone else is doing” if you believe them to be wrong.

BELT RANKS at FAMILY MOO DO ACADEMY For those of you who are brand new to our school, all of the colored belts you see in class can be confusing. As each of us advance in our training and skills, we advance through the ranks of TaeKwonDo through testing for the outward sign of our inward progress, our belt (the Korean word is pronounced "tee" or "dtee") shows our individual rank.

While specific belt details can vary between schools, almost every school advances students in steps called "gups" (pronounced "gup" or "goop"). A new student at his or her first testing typically earns his or her Yellow Belt.

For the beginner, the belts we use at Family Moo Do Academy are as follows:

9th Gup - Yellow Belt 8th Gup - Yellow/White Belt 7th Gup - Green Belt 6th Gup - Green/White Belt 5th Gup - Blue Belt 4th Gup - Blue/White Belt 3rd Gup - Brown Belt 2nd Gup - Brown/White Belt 1st Gup - Red Belt

Dan Bo - Red/White Belt (these students are considered black belt material, and at some schools it was a black belt called a T-black. The "T" meant "temporary".) 1st Dan - The first actual black belt worn by our students. You also have earned the right to have black trim on your uniform. Belt is black with one Gold embroidered bar or stripe on one end. 2nd Dan - Black with 2 bars. Student must be 1st Dan for 1 year before he can be considered for testing for 2nd Dan. 3rd Dan - Black with 3 bars. Student must be 2nd Dan for 2 years before he can be considered to test for 3rd Dan. 4th Dan and up. With each advancement in rank, another year is tacked on to the time required in the student's present rank before he or she can test again.

TESTING FOR THE NEXT BELT LEVEL At certain times throughout the year, opportunities are offered to test for the next belt level. This is typically scheduled on a Saturday and lasts all day long, with a break for lunch. There are certain expectations required to reach each belt level. Your instructor will inform you of what you need to know for your belt test.

TAEKWONDO STUDENT OATH

I shall observe the tenets of Tae Kwon Do. I shall respect all instructors and seniors. I shall never misuse Tae Kwon Do. I shall be a champion of freedom and justice. I shall strive to build a more peaceful world.

BASIC TAEKWONDO BLOCKING TECHNIQUES Makki means block • Downward block - Bring the outside of the forearm down (with fist closed) below the waist in order to protect against leg & lower body strikes. The fist of the other arm is at the belt. Quick and powerful. • Rising block - Bring the outside of the forearm over the head to protect against high attacks (i.e. axe kicks). Arm should be at a 45 degree angle with fingers of fists facing to the front • Inward block – Starting near the ear, bring the outside of the forearm "inside" across the face in order to protect the head from opposite side attacks. The arm is bent at approximately 45 degrees with the fingers of the fist facing toward the face. • Outward block – Starting at the torso level, bring the outside of the forearm level with the shoulders to protect the head & upper body. The arm is bent at approximately 45 degrees with the fingers of the fist facing toward the face. • Knife hand block – Can be outward or inward, use an open knife hand to block instead of a fist. Used to block and grab an opponent. • Double knife hand block – front hand is brought up next to the head and rear hand is extended to the back. Swing both hands forward. Front hand stops with palm facing down at shoulder height, arm slightly bent and positioned at an approximately 45 degree angle; rear hand stops with palm up in middle of torso. Knife edge of the hand is the blocking surface.

BASIC TAEKWONDO KICKING TECHNIQUES Chagi (pronounced Chaggi) means Kick. • Front Kick (Ap Chagi) - Useful for hitting the opponent in the torso region. Pull toes up and kick forcefully with the ball of your foot. • Round Kick (Dollyo chagi)- Used most frequently, especially for sparring. Pull the kicking knee to the chest while pivoting the foot on the floor 180 degrees. Snap the leg out forcefully, kicking with the top of the foot, toes pointed back to avoid damaging them. Return by placing kicking foot or in rear. • Front Foot Round Kick - Use the forward foot to execute a round kick (versus using your rear leg). • Axe Kick (Naeryeo Chagi) - Useful to striking the opponent's head or collar bone. Bring leg up straight in front and then powerfully force down, heel first and toes pulled back, without slamming into the floor. • Side Kick (Yop Chagi) – Good for aiming at the knee • Back Kick (Dwi Chagi) - Very powerful. Raise knee of kicking leg to the front and pivot 180 degrees on the ball of the standing front leg while looking over your shoulder to view your target. Powerfully kick to the rear with the heel of the foot.

• Crescent Kick – (Inward and outward). Facing the front, lock the knee and lift and swing the leg inward (or outward) in a semi-circle. Kick with the sole (Inward) or side (outward) part of the foot.

BASIC TAEKWONDO STANCES Seogi (pronounced soggy) means stance. • Ready Stance (Choonbi Stance) – The stance commonly used to begin forms and training. o Stand with the feet one shoulder length apart, head & body facing forward o Raise the arms up in front of you gathering positive energy then force them down in front, hands as fists, slightly bent and just below belt level. Do not hunch shoulders. o Fists should be down around belt level and they should be a fist-size away from the body. • Walking Stance (Ap Seogi) – o Take one step forward as in a regular "walking" step. The rear foot stays in place. o The front foot is pointing straight forward and the rear foot points slightly to the side. o The distance between the two feet is about one foot's length apart. • Forward Stance (Apkubi Seogi)- This is an offensive stance. (Also called front stance) o Take a long step forward with the front foot, two shoulder widths apart. o The feet should be wide enough apart to provide a good foundation of weight support, even if someone leans on you (1½ shoulder widths apart) o The knee of the front leg is bent so it is directly over the knee and supports most of the weight. The foot faces forward o The rear leg is straight and the foot faces forward with the heel on the floor. o The body faces forward towards the opponent. • Back Stance (Dwitkubi Seogi)- This is a defensive stance. o Most of the weight is on the back leg with the back knee slightly bent. o The front foot points forward while the back foot points 90 degrees to the side. o The two feet are about two shoulder widths apart. o The body is facing the side to show a smaller target to the opponent but the head still faces the front.

• Horse Stance (Juchun Seogi)- Used often during training. o Stand with the feet two shoulder lengths apart, knees bent to almost 45 degrees. Look like you are riding a horse. o The feet, body and head face forward while keeping the back straight. o Fists are on the belt. o If punching in this stance, do not let the shoulders move – keep the back straight as if you are against a wall. • Cat or Tiger Stance - Used for quick snap kicks. o Similar to the back stance but the front foot is very close to the rear foot and only the toes/ball of the front foot are touching the ground (the rear foot is flat on the ground).

• Fighting Stance - This stance is used for sparring/fighting and not in forms. o The body should be faced to the side showing a smaller target to the opponent. o Feet should be placed similar to walking stance, with weight equally divided between both legs. Balance on the balls of your feet when moving. o Generally, the front foot will be at 30-50 degrees and the rear foot at 50-70 degrees. However, don't worry about degrees and angles. Pick a foot position that is comfortable/natural for you and that you can use to quickly react to or initiate an attack. o Both arms are raised up in front of the torso - lead fist head high ready to block or jab, rear fist neck/chin high - ready to block or punch. o Head faces forward towards the opponent.

Moo Duk Kwan Federation

Practices Soo Bahk Do, a martial art developed from ancient techniques by founder Grand Master Hwang Kee. Founded in 1945 Moo Duk Kwan means School of Martial/Military Virtue

Yellow Fist – Justice, Military Strength and Virtue 14 Laurel leaves on each side of the wreath represent the 14 states of South Korea. The 6 berries represent the 6 continents of the world on which Taekwondo is practiced today.

Blue text says “Moo Duk Kwan.”

US Flag – Liberty

50 stars represent the 50 states; the 13 stripes represent the thirteen original colonies. Red represents the blood shed for our country and our freedom, and white is the purity of the people. Blue signifies vigilance, perseverance, and justice.

South Korea Flag Name of flag: Taeguk-ki (“ki” means flag in Korean) When hung, the red part of the Taegeuk (Um-yang) is on top. The white background symbolizes "cleanliness of the people". The (Um-yang) Taegeuk represents the origin of all things in the universe, holding the two principles of yin and yang in perfect balance—the former being the negative aspect rendered in blue and the latter as the positive aspect rendered in red. Together, they represent a continuous movement within infinity, the two merging as one. Red (hong) is Heaven, Blue (cheong) is Earth. Trigrams: From upper left, clockwise, FIRE (wisdom, west, autumn), HEAVEN (justice, east, spring), WATER (life, north, winter), EARTH (fertility, south, summer). Each has three bars, two are broken in different places and one is unbroken. The trigrams also symbolize Taeguk/Palgwe poomsae 1, 3, 6, and 8.

Han Moo Kwan Founded in August of 1954 One of the nine original kwans (schools) of taekwondo.

The word Han means Korea, Moo means Military or Martial, and Kwan means School; together Han Moo Kwan means "Korean Military School". (Blue text says “Taekwondo Han Moo Kwan.”) This form addresses the needs of the adult who wishes to practice a power form designed for personal combat. This fighting art is used strictly for self-defense using only bare hands and feet, no weaponry, to fend off attackers Depicts olive leaves for peace, Korean Dragon for power. Depicts a Korean Dragon carrying a dragon orb known as the Yeouiju (You-joo) in its mouth. Whoever could wield the Yeouiju was blessed with omnipotence and creation at will, and that only four-toed dragons (who had thumbs with which to hold the orbs) were both wise and powerful enough to wield these orbs.

Kukkiwon World Tae Kwon Do Headquarters

A large building or arena in Seoul, the capital of South Korea, where Tae Kwon Do is practiced all of the time.

Blue text says “Kukkiwon.”

Korea Tae Kwon Do Association

World Tae Kwon Do Federation The World Taekwondo Federation is the International Federation (IF) governing the sport of Taekwondo and is a member of the Association of Summer Olympic International Federations (ASOIF).

The WTF was established in South Korea on May 28, 1973, at its inaugural meeting held at the Kukkiwon with participation of 35 representatives from the world. The WTF, which only governs the function of Taekwondo competitions and related support services, should not be confused with the World Taekwondo Headquarters, also known as Kukkiwon

THREE TYPES OF POOMSAE (All begin with defensive blocking techniques that are followed by counter attacks.)

1. World Taekwondo Federation forms (Taegeuk 1-8) 2. Traditional forms (Palgwe 1-8), 3. 9 Black Belt forms (from Koryo to Ilyo)

Poomsae meanings: they originate from the book 'I Ching', a Chinese oracle. The I Ching has 64 hexagrams, a combination of two sets of three lines, closed or broken (trigrams.) The closed lines represent Yang, the open lines Yin. The unity of Yin and Yang in the Korean language is called Tae-guk. This explains the term Poomsae Taegeuk. The eight trigrams together are called Pal- gwe as in Poomsae Palgwe.

Taegeuk Taegeuk, when loosely translated, means Great Eternity or Eternal Greatness. The idealisms of Taegeuk, which every student should learn are: pacifism, unity, creative spirit, future spirit, and eternity. The Taegeuk has the same symbolism as the Palgwe. The "Taegeuk Poomsae integrates the methods of attack, defense, forward movement and retreat, control of the speed of movements, and the intensity of the actions. The directions and lines of movement are represented by the eight symbols of 'Palgwe.' The overall purpose of Poomsae is to control the breathing to be synchronized while executing techniques requiring great speed.

1. Taegeuk Il Jang (8th Geup)- Heaven 2. Taegeuk Ee Jang (7th Geup)- Lake 3. Taegeuk Sam Jang (6th Geup)- Fire 4. Taegeuk Sa Jang (5th Geup)- Thunder 5. Taegeuk Oh Jang (4th Geup)- Wind 6. Taegeuk Yook Jang (3th Geup)- Water 7. Taegeuk Chil Jang (2th Geup)- Mountain 8. Taegeuk Pal Jang (First Geup)- Earth

Palgwe The term Palgwe is loosely translated as Eight Powers of the Universe, and these eight Palgwe poomsae are based on these conceptual powers of Heaven, Mind, Fire, Thunder, Wind, Water, Mountain, and Earth. "The idea of Palgwe embraces different symbols and includes all opposing concepts and images. They grow through the process of constant change...in an endless state of development. These forms are meant to give the student an understanding of the basic principles of Taekwondo, which are characterized by contrast-change and coming together, conflict and harmony- thereby corresponding to the idea of Palgwe".

1. Palgwe Il Jang 4. Palgwe Sa Jang 7. Palgwe Chil Jang 2. Palgwe Ee Jang 5. Palgwe Oh Jang 8. Palgwe Pal Jang 3. Palgwe Sam Jang 6. Palgwe Yook Jang

Black Belt Forms The color black is created when all the colors of the light spectrum have been absorbed into an object. That object has "taken control" of the colors and retained them. If one color was to "escape", the object would no longer be black. The student has mastered the nine grades of Taekwondo. He/she has "absorbed" all the knowledge of the color ranks and has overcome or "mastered" those levels of training.
