Forms / Hyungs

Each rank has its own Form. These are patterns used by the

Koreans in battle.

These self defence and attack movements demonstrate focus,

power, technique and memory skills.

Each Form has its own name.

Sparring

White & yellow belts perform 1-step sparring. This is non-contact self defence practice.

Green belts and above perform semi-contact free sparring. Students show off their self defence abilities.

Purple belts also perform 3-step sparring. This is non-contact self defence practice with a moving opponent.

Stretching & Exercise

To start off each class, there will be an element of exercise and stretching to help prevent injury.

Throughout TaeKwonDo, stretching and exercise is very important. In some classes we may focus on exercise and stretching.

Sparring is an excellent way to burn off fat and to help the cardio work out.

Focus Drills

Every class has an element of focus.

Using focus pads/mits/ kick bags, students can focus their techniques towards the target.

Other focus drill could include controlled floor work in groups.

We have free standing and wall hanging punch/kick bags available to aid training in class.

A.R.C. Techniques

A.R.C. Techniques are our Assault Resistance & Control Techniques (also known as Attack, React, Control) which aim to help the individual in a close contact situation that could easily turn into a fight. The aim is to avoid the fight, so using certain techniques can enable you to escape the situation, or restrain the attacker until help arrives.
