3 Meaning of the symbol DOVE Taekwondo Taegeuk Taegeuk is a symbol representing the principles of the cosmos creation and the norms of human life. The circumference of the Taegeuk mark symbolizes infinity and the two parts, red and blue, inside the circle symbolize yin (negative) and yang (positive). Therefore, Taegeuk is the light which is the unified core of the cosmos and human life and its boundlessness signifies energy and the source of life. The yin and yang represents the development of the cosmos and human life and the oneness of symmetrical halves, such as negative and positive, hardness and softness, and materials and anti-materials. The eight bar-signs (called kwae) outside the circle are so arranged to go along with the Taegeuk in an orderly system. One bar means the yang and two bars the yin, both representing the creation of harmonization with the basic principles of all cosmos phenomena. The Taegeuk, infinity and yin-yang are the three elements constituting the philosophical trinity as mentioned in the Samil Sinko, the Scripture of Korean race. 2

4 The Origin of Taegeuk Denomination According to the old book of history, Sinsi Bonki, around(b.c.35), a son of the 5th emperor of the Hwan-ung Dynasty in on ancient nation of the Tongyi race whose name was Pokhui, was said to have received the Heaven's ordinance to have an insight in the universal truths, thereby observing rituals for the Heaven and finally receiving the eight kwaes (bar signs). After all, this has been passed down through a long, long history by King Mun, Chou tsu, Confucius and Scholar Kim Il bu, all descendants of the Tongyi race. Scholar Kim finally completed the present Taegeuk mark. Poomsae The Taegeuk poomsae was established on the basis of profound philosophy of Taegeuk to be trained by the Taekwondo beginners. Its poomsae line and seogi are based on the invariable basic though of Taekwondo. The monism of Taegeuk is the frame of this poomsae, each Kwae being reflected in a pattern of Taegeuk poomsae, which elucidates the Taekwondo spirit and the profoundness of Taekwondo techniques. The Origin of Poomsae The Taekwondo poomsaes are so designed to cope collectively with the outside threats in that society has already developed into an organized group, weakening the necessity of solitary individual defense measures. For the constituents of community, the practice and transmission of techniques should be convenient and less complicated. In that sense, the poomsae has been gradually systematized through practical experiences together with the help of philosophical and medical sciences. It is believed that in ancient times the poomsae was practiced among the ruling class and the first poomsae pattern appearing in the documents or monuments was around the first century, when Koguryo reined the Han (Korean) race. Definition of Poomsae Each poom of the poomsae has been inherited through a long history of about 5,000 years, finally as a product of scientific technique formulated on the basis of the traditional national spirit and practical experiments. From the technical viewpoint, the poomsae itself is Taekwondo, and the basic movements are no more than the preliminary actions to reach the poomsae. The Kyorugi is a practical application of the poomsae and the Taekwondo spirit is manifested not in an abstract mental philosophy expressed in the documents but in the actions of poomsae. Then, what is the Taekwondo poomsae? The poomsae is the style of conduct which expresses directly or indirectly mental and physical refinements as well as the principles of offense and defense resulting from cultivation of Taekwondo spirit and techniques. Significance of Poomsae The poomsae is a series of movements for offense and defense techniques which can be practiced and trained, even without presence of an instructor, in accordance with the fixed patterns. Therefore, the poomsae has the merits, by its practice, to make the trainee enhance the Kyorugi techniques and applied techniques including special techniques which can hardly be practiced by the training of each separate basic movement alone. 3

5 The poomsae can be trained along the imaginary or drawn poomsae line, which marks the position of foot and the line direction to move along. Considerations for Training Poomsae The poomsae is a series of alternate attack and defense actions: therefore, there are frequent changes of actions and connections of techniques. One must pay attention to the movement of body, eyes, respiration, etc. The steps of paying attention are as follow: 1) A complete understanding of the significance of poomsae and the principles of its composition. 2) A perfect memorization of the poomsae line, movements and direction. 3) During the practice, the following must be taken into consideration : a) The eyes b) Movement of the center of balance c) Low or high speed d) Strong or weak force e) Respiration Training of Poomsae A completion of poomsae can be achieved through hard training following the 4 steps: 1. Pattern - The first step of training poomsae is to learn the pattern. Concentration of spirit, eyes, and angles of movements must be emphasized in addition to the accuracy of actions. 2. Significance - In the next step, the emphasis must be laid on the balance, strength and weakness, low or high speed, respiration and poomsae line. The significance of movements, connection of pooms and the complete poomsae must be learned correctly. 3. Practical Use - One must adapt what he has learned to his practical use, finding out the practicability. 4. Self Style - One must evaluate his findings about the effectiveness of what he has learned, comparing with his bodily structure, speed, strength, muscle strength, impulsive power, points of emphasis in training, etc., and moderate the techniques into his own style. Categories of Poomsae The poomsae are categorized by the technique, composition and points of stress, which are classified each into 3 minor breakdowns. 1. Technique - The technique means the technical patterns of the entire poomsae. The essence of Taekwondo is the martial art; therefore, the categorization of practicable patterns of techniques is important. a) Poomsae containing various techniques - This contains more techniques of chagi and makki than are needed for practical use. Practicable techniques must be selected among them in the course of training. b) Poomsae containing practicable techniques - This includes practically used techniques only, which are classified into a series of chigi techniques, a series of makki techniques and a balanced combination of chigi and makki techniques. 4

6 c) Poomsae containing simple techniques - This is classified into the basic course and the advanced course, in the advanced course, the training of cultivating the inner strength of body by means of controlling the respiration is included. The variations of techniques should be mastered through hard training. 2. Composition - The composition of poomsae movements is differentiated according to the proportion of poom and technique, hand techniques and foot techniques, and seogi and its moving directions. Except for certain special cases, the poomsae movements are equally distributed among all parts of the body symmetrically between fore and back and between left and right. Therefore, the proportion of foot techniques and hand techniques is the criteria to decide the composition of poomsae movements. a) Poomsae with the priority on hand techniques b) Poomsae with the priority on foot techniques c) Poomsae in which hand techniques and foot techniques are evenly distributed. 3. Points of Stress - The poomsae is also classified by the extent of emphasis in favor of either strength or softness and of either a slow movement or a fast movement. Strong but slow movements and speedy but soft movements are included in the similar categories. a) Strong but slow poomsae b) Weak but speedy poomsae c) Poomsae well balanced in strength and weakness as well as in slowness and speediness. However, the above methods of categorization are not absolute for the advanced course of training. Classification of Poomsae Taegeuk poomsaes from 1(il) jang to 8(pal) jang are classified as Kup grader's poomsaes and the poomsaes from Koryo up to Ilyo as Dan-grader's, i.e., black-belter's poomsaes. The poomsaes consists of basic movements and poom and they are so arranged to fit the frame of movement direction, which is called the poomsae line. The poomsae lines are described after symbols or Chinese characters. Types of Poomsae Lines 1) Taegeuk poomsae - This consists of 8 patterns symbolizing the 8 divination signs(bars) in the Oriental science of divination, and it is generally expressed by a Chinese character, meaning a king. 2) Koryo poomsae - the shape of a Chinese character, meaning a learned man. 3) Keumgang poomsae - a Chinese character, meaning a mountain (Mt. Diamond) 4) Taebaek poomsae - a Chinese character, meaning an artisan. 5) Pyongwon poomsae - a Chinese character, meaning one. 6) Sipjin poomsae - a Chinese character, meaning ten. 7) Jitae poomsae - the shape of a Korean vowel, sounding "oh" 8) Chonkwon poomsae - the shape of a Korean vowel, sounding "wu" 9) Hansu poomsae - a Chinese character, meaning water. 10) Ilyo poomsae - the shape of a reversed swastika sign. 5

7 Symbols Expressing the Direction of Poomsae Lines For the diagrammatical description of each poomsae line, some phonetic symbols of the Korean alphabet are used to mark the position of the trainee who exercises a poomsae practice. Na : always the starting point of each poomsae. Ga : the forward direction of preceding. Da : the left side from the starting point. Ra : the right side from the starting point. Ma : the backward direction from the starting point. Taegeuk Poomsaes Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Il Jang - Heaven (South, Father) The first Taeguk/Palgwe is the beginning of all Poomses. The associated trigram represents Yang (heaven, light), therefore, this Poomse should be performed with the greatness of Heaven. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Yi Jang - Lake (South East, Youngest daughter) In the depths of the lake are treasures and mysteries. The movements of this Taeguk/Palgwe should be performed knowing that man has limitations, but that we can overcome these limitations. This should lead to a feeling of joy, knowing that we can control our future. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Sam Jang - Fire (East, Second daughter) Fire contains a lot of energy. Fire helped man to survive, but on the other hand had some catastrophic results. This form should be performed rhythmically, with some outbursts of energy. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Sa Jang - Thunder (North East, Eldest son) Thunder comes from the sky and is absorbed by the earth. Thunder is one of the most powerful natural forces, circling, gyrating. This Taeguk/Palgwe should be performed with this in mind. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Oh Jang - Wind (South West, Eldest daughter) Wind is a gently force, but can sometimes be furious, destroying everything in it's path. Poomse Taeguk/Palgwe Oh Jang should be performed like the wind: gently, but knowing the ability of mass destruction with a single movement. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Yook Jang - Water (West, Second son) Water can move a mountain. The movements of this Poomse should be performed like water. Sometimes standing still like water in a lake, sometimes thriving as a river. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Chil Jang - Mountain (North West, Youngest son) Mountains will always look majestic, no matter the size. This Poomse should be performed with the feeling that all movements are this majestic and deserved to be praised. Poomsae Taegeuk/Palgwe Pal Jang - Earth (North, Mother) The associated trigram of this Poomse is Yin: the end of the beginning, the evil part of all that is good. Even in this darkness, there is still some light. Performing this Taeguk/Palgwe, one should be aware that this is the last Taeguk/Palgwe to be learned, it also is the end of a circle, and therefore it is also the first, the second etc... 6
