1 TERMINOLOGY & FORMS Hyung, poomsae or tul (casually referred to as forms) is a martial arts form that is typically used in a Korean martial art. A hyung is a performance of a sequence of typical techniques from the martial art, either with or without the use of a weapon. This sequence is sometimes called "imaginary fighting" as it involves pre-determined and choreographed routines, sequences and patterns which resemble real combat, but are artistically non-combative or cooperative. These hyungs are performed as a way of practicing basic and advanced techniques in the martial art as well as in open competitions. In competition, routines are evaluated by a panel of masterlevel judges who base the score on many factors including energy, precision, speed, and control. Many Korean martial arts refer to their forms as hyung. The most popular of these is Taekwondo, though Tang Soo Do also refers to its forms as hyung. Individuals who train in Japanese and related styles of martial arts refer to forms as kata. Of these forms, there are two classifications; creative and traditional. Creative forms are created by the performer are generally more acrobatic in nature. (As an example, a performer may break several boards that have been arranged in a shape.) The traditional forms are more true to the basics of the martial art... 1
