7 An open letter to all students... Keep in mind, during your training, that this is a martial art that you are learning and not a game to be treated lightly. Tae Kwon Do is an art that requires both PHYSICAL and MENTAL discipline before you can master it. You know that it takes physical capability; however, actions are directly controlled by your mental attitude. PHYSICAL DISCIPLINE consists of pushing yourself just a little bit more today than you did yesterday in your Tae Kwon Do training. It is through this method that you will progress technique-wise in Tae Kwon Do. MENTAL DISCIPLINE is much more important than physical discipline and is not that difficult to attain. It involves treating all other people in the school with due RESPECT. Instructors of course, because it is from them that all your KNOWLEDGE comes; fellow students because they also have the patience to tolerate you in form and in sparring, and it's while you are sparring that your techniques, coming from the forms, are cultivated. When you are away from class always remember to maintain the discipline and self-control you have inside the school. People will respect you more if you keep the mental discipline you are taught by the instructors and the correct attitude in everything that you do everyday of your life! Master Chip Townsend This letter is a piece of history. It was used in the 1960 s by Grand Master Sin Il Choi (Grand Master Lim s uncle) when he opened academies in Wisconsin. Because the message is so powerful, the letter has been passed down to instructors to be used in their schools.

10 Student Guide History of Tae Kwon Do Over 1350 years ago, Korea was divided into three kingdoms: Silla, Koguryo, and Baek Je. Silla was the smallest of the three kingdoms. Because of this, Silla was always under constant invasions. To protect and guard Silla, the kingdom chose a few men or officers to defend the kingdom. The officers group was called the Hwa Rang Do. These men drove themselves to defend their homeland. To guide themselves, they made five rules, which were: 1. Be loyal to your King. 2. Be obedient to your parents. 3. Be honorable to your friends. 4. Never retreat in battle. 5. Make a just kill. These young warriors many as young as 14 and 15 years old, became known for their success in battle. This led Silla to rise and unite. This was the first time the entire Korean Peninsula had been united in its entire history. Soo Bak was the name given to the art of hand fighting used during this period. After the warriors used it in fighting and combined it with the principles of the Hwa Rang Do, it became know as Soo Bak Gi. It is proven that this fighting was transported to Japan to form the basis of Japanese Karate. Silla and Koryo dynasties were the best in the martial arts in Korea. Soon the dynasties formed an anti military posture. Anything dealing with the military was debased. With the Japanese occupation in the years of 1909 to 1945, it was against the law to practice any form of martial art. There was still some dedicated students who secretly practiced Taek Kyon. With the liberation of Korea in 1945, a new military was formed. It was called the Republic of Korea Armed Forces. A young Second Lieutenant named Choi Hong Hi, who had just been released from a Japanese POW camp, began teaching students his martial arts. This was the beginning of what is know today as Tae Kwon Do. In 1955, Tae Kwon Do was chosen as the official name for the martial art. Tae means foot, Kwon means hand and Do means art. So, that which started over 1350, years ago with a small group of people, is now practiced by millions of students in over 60 countries. Tae Kwon Do has reached its potential, as it has no equal in power technique or mental conditioning. Source: Encyclopedia of Taekwon-Do, Vol.1, Gen. Choi Hong Hi

17 EXPLANATION OF TENETS The tenets of Tae Kwon Do should serve as a guide for all serious students of the art. COURTESY Tae Kwon Do students should try to put into practice the following, in addition to etiquette: 1. To promote the spirit of mutual concessions. 2. To be ashamed of one's vice contemplating that of other's. 3. To be polite to one another. 4. To encourage the sense of justice. 5. To distinguish the instructor from student and senior from junior. INTEGRITY In Tae Kwon Do, the word integrity assumes a looser definition that the one usually presented in Webster's dictionary. One must be able to define right and wrong, and have the conscience, if wrong, to feel guilt. Listed are some examples where integrity is lacking: 1. The instructor who misrepresents himself and his art by presenting improper techniques to his students because of a lack of knowledge or apathy. 2. The student whom misrepresents himself by "fixing" breaking materials before demonstrations. 3. The instructor who camouflages bad techniques with luxurious training halls and false flattery to his students. 4. The student who requests rank from an instructor, or attempts to purchase it. 5. The student who gains rank for ego purposes or the feeling of power. 6. The instructor that teaches and promotes his art for materialistic gain. PERSEVERANCE There is an old oriental saying, "Patience leads to virtue or merit. One can make a peaceful home by being patient for 100 times." Certainly, happiness and prosperity are most likely brought to the patient person. To achieve something, whether it is a higher degree or the perfection of a technique, one must set his
18 Student Guide goal then constantly persevere. Robert Bruce learned his lesson of perseverance from the persistent efforts of a lowly spider. It was this perseverance and tenacity that finally enabled him to free Scotland in the fourteenth century. One of the most important secrets in becoming a leader of Tae Kwon Do is to overcome every difficulty by perseverance. SELF CONTROL This tenet is extremely important inside and outside the do jang, whether conducting oneself in free sparring or in one's personal affairs. A loss of self control in free sparring can prove disastrous to both student and opponent. An inability to live and work within one's capability or sphere is also a lack of self control. INDOMITABLE SPIRIT "Here lie 300, who did their duty," a simple epitaph for one of the greatest acts of courage known to mankind. Although facing the superior forces of Xentes, Leonidas and his 300 Spartans at Thermopylae showed the world the meaning of indomitable spirit. It is shown when a courageous person and his principles are pitted against odds. A serious student of Tae Kwon Do will at all times be modest and honest. If confronted with injustice, he will deal with the belligerent without any fear or hesitation, with indomitable spirit, regardless of whosoever and how many the number may be. The source for the explanation of tenets is the Encyclopedia of Taekwon-Do by General Choi Hong Hi. Major General Choi Hong Hi was born on November 9th, Major General Choi Hong Hi passed away on the 15th June 2002 and he was buried on 17th June 2002 at Pyongyang.
