3 Congratulations on Your New Rank! As a new yellow belt, you have taken the first step on the ladder to success! As you begin to learn new material, remember to practice old material as well as new. Everything you are learning now will form the foundation for your advanced training in Taekwon-do. Yellow Belt means - Yellow signifies the sun, which a new seedling sees as it begins to grow. Build a strong root system - develop strong stances. Practice your basic techniques and develop them to the best of your ability. Taekwondo developed from a very strong foundation developed over the centuries. Taekwondo is a martial art that utilizes only the weapons of our own body - our hands and feet, our mind and spirit. In this way, those who train are always prepared as they always carry their weapons with them. During the 7th century in the Silla dynasty in Korea, martial arts were very important, but the Koreans also recognized the importance of the arts of the mind, and these were equally emphasized. The most elite of their society were young men, known as the Hwa Rang Do, skilled in both mental and martial arts. Over the following centuries, martial arts training was not as emphasized until the early 1900 s when the Japanese occupied Korea and forbade the practice of any form of Korean martial arts. Because the martial arts had a strong root system among the Korean people, some continued to train in secret and were able to keep the martial arts tradition alive in Korea through their dedication and perseverance. Upon advancing to Yellow Belt, you entered into the ranks of the Choongsil-Do Martial Arts Federation. As a member, you ll have the advantage of participating in exclusive CMAF programs and events. The belt rank that you earn in the CMAF is recognized nationally. Your appreciation of the CMAF membership will grow as you advance in rank. Your Chief Instructor is constantly working to assure that the Martial Arts program you re involved in is the finest recognized training in the Art of TaeKwon-Do available today and that you will be very proud of your accomplishments for years to come as you strive for Constant and Never Ending Improvement. 3

8 Stretching and Breathing for Health STRETCHING FOR FLEXIBILITY Muscular performance - strength and endurance - is only half of total muscular fitness. The other half is flexibility. Flexibility is the ability of body segments to move freely over a wide range of motion without stiffness or resistance. Flexible muscles are less prone to soreness and injury and can help improve overall muscular performance since they are longer and less likely to tear or strain than tight, inflexible ones. Static Stretching Gentle static stretching exercises are perhaps the best means of keeping your muscles and joints flexible. Stretching for 5-10 minutes before vigorous activity can help reduce your risk of injury and stretching for an equal amount of time after rigorous activity can prevent muscle soreness. A consistent stretching program will improve your overall level of flexibility. The best way to stretch a muscle is to do it slowly and gently. When you reach your maximum pain free stretch, don t bounce. Just hold the stretch until your muscles relax, usually seconds. Because of this holding period, these types of stretches are called static stretches. Static stretches safely elongate your muscles as well as the tendons that attach them to the bone, thereby improving joint mobility. Joint Mobility Joint mobility is improved by flexible muscles, but there are also specific exercises that can work your joints through their entire range of motion without necessarily stretching surrounding muscles. These exercises or movements generally use a back-and-forth or circular motion to improve joint mobility. They should always be done slowly with controlled motion to avoid pushing a joint past its limits, since jerking or bouncing can cause injury to the joint. 8
9 The Optimal Method of Breathing for Martial Artists In the Western world we have been taught to breathe from high in the chest. This stems from the Western ideal of proper posture characterized by a puffed out chest with the stomach sucked in. While the martial arts teaches us to breathe from the abdomen, with states of tension, fear and anxiety, most students soon revert back to the shallow thoracic (chest) breaths which serve only to encourage less than one s best performance. Normal, quiet respiration uses only the diaphragm. This is what is termed abdominal breathing. The chest is kept completely still and the accessory muscles are not utilized. This is the proper way to breath. All breathing should be done through the nose with the exception of when vocalizing as when a martial artist performs a kihap. Nose breathing is most efficient for oxygen delivery and preserves the moisture of the airways. This becomes extremely important when involved in lengthy, dehydrating workouts. Proper respiration has four major benefits for the martial artist. First it keeps the mind calm and grounded. Just try to become extremely angry or hysterical while taking slow, deep, abdominal breaths. It simply cannot be done. Deep, abdominal breathing with slight tension in the abdomen dampens the fight or flight in favor of relaxation, lowering of the pulse, slowing of respiration and conservation of energy. You are then able to respond to a threat appropriately rather than reacting anxiously. The preservation of energy reserves becomes very important in endurance activities. Secondly, proper breathing allows superior oxygen exchange in the lungs resulting in improved muscle performance during activity requiring maximal effort. Third, keeping the breath low in the abdomen automatically keeps your center of gravity low for improved balance. The fourth and probably the most important quality of proper respiration is its ability to assist in keeping the mind focused on the present moment. 9
10 Developing the habit of diaphragmatic breathing takes considerable practice. It has taken years to condition your breathing to your current pattern so don t expect miraculous changes overnight. It will take time to condition your body back to the normal respiration that it knew as an infant, but it will be well worth the effort. When executing technique breath out through the mouth on the execution and hold the breath at the end as contact is being made. This practice tightens the entire body which allows full transfer of energy through the technique whether a strike, punch, kick or block. In addition the increased pressure in the lungs forces greater quantities of oxygen into the blood stream. Immediately following contact, complete the exhale then inhale through the nose using the above described abdominal breathing. 10
