| Jul 12, 2014 at 1:29 | comment | added | aleks1217 | Good, I'm glad to help! Here is the full set. Charyot (attention), kyung yeh (bow), joonbi (ready stance), kyroogi joongi (fighting stance), then hana/dul (one/two) or seijak (pronounced SHEE-jak) (begin). Boro (back to ready). Shiu (at ease)...this is when the student bows and says komahsanida (thank you). | |
| Jul 11, 2014 at 19:45 | comment | added | randomblink | @aleks1217 that is another GREAT example of what I was looking for. Charyot and joonbi were those pieces I haven't had to use in decades, but I could remember something was missing. Enough that I didn't want to start teaching ANYTHING because I felt I was missing important stuff. Thanks! | |
| Jul 9, 2014 at 3:20 | comment | added | aleks1217 | I only realized now that randomblink is asking for kata. Kata is a Japanese term, and maybe he is asking for poomse or forms? White belt just teaches simple combinations. Then you work through (depending on your school) the Taeguk, Palgwe, Pyung Ahn (etc., etc.... our school does Chong Bong which is not internationally or competition recognized) forms. Again, another good starting point for searches on the internet. | |

We learn those basic techniques and use them in combinations, and with drills on the bag and targets. We also learn how to bow (shiu), attention (charyot), ready stance (joonbi), fighting stance (kyroogi joonbi), the school regulations and some other simple Korean terms (hana "one", dul "two", etc.). To ask me to expand on how to perform the techniques, is to perhaps go against everything I've learned! We are taught to teach by showing, not talking. So maybe find some good videos that show good technique. :-) | |
