Promotion from one geup to the next can proceed rapidly in some schools, since schools often allow geup promotions every two, three, or four months. Students of geup rank learn the most basic techniques first, and then move on to more advanced techniques as they approach first dan. Many of the older and more traditional schools often take longer to allow students to test for higher ranks than newer, more contemporary schools, as they may not have the required testing intervals.

Supported Hand Blade Downward Block

( 손날 거들어 내려막기 sonnal-kodureo-naeryeo-makgi )

 

Difficulty Level:  Intermediate      Technique: Blocks ( 막기 makgi )

The Supported Hand Blade Downward Block ( 손날 거들어 내려막기 sonnal-kodureo-naeryeo-makgi ) is an intermediate blocking technique where you make a low block ( 아래막기 arae-makgi ) with hand blades ( 손날 sonnal ), while the other hand ( 손 son ) is supporting the block ( 막기 makgi ) also with hand blades ( 손날 sonnal ) around the sternum area.

The blocking hand ( 손 son ) starts from shoulder level with the palm ( 손바닥 sonbadak ) up while you stretch the other hand ( 손 son ) far from the waist reaching outwards with the palm ( 손바닥 sonbadak ) facing downward at shoulder height level. Both hands ( 손 son ) should be completed at the same time but not one after another when executing the block ( 막기 makgi ).

The supporting hand ( 손 son ) could be used as a counter strike such as with the Palm Heel Forward Strike ( 바탕손 앞치기 batangson-ap-chigi ), Spearhand Vertical Thrust ( 편손끝 세워찌르기 pyeonsonkkeut-sewo-jjireugi ), or the Flat Fingertips Horizontal Strike ( 편손끝 엎어찌르기 pyeonsonkkeut-eopeo-jjireugi ).

In the final form, the blocking arm's elbow ( 팔굽 palgup ) and the supporting hand ( 손 son ) should not be touching each other. The front blocking hand blades ( 손날 sonnal ) is set above the thigh roughly two-fist gap distance most commonly in a Back Stance ( 뒷굽이 dwi-kubi ). The supporting hand ( 손 son ) is placed one fist below the solar plexus with the wrist ( 팔목 palmok ) aligned to the center of body. Remember to keep the wrists ( 팔목 palmok ) straight.

* Please see a certified Master Instructor ( 사범님 sabeomnim ) for training. Proper guidance and instructions are needed to ensure safe training.

Taekwondo Quiz Questions

Question. In what year was the World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) officially established?

The World Taekwondo Federation is the International Federation [IF] governing the sport of Taekwondo and is a member of the Association of Summer Olympic International Federations [ASOIF]. The WTF was established at its inaugural meeting held at the Kukkiwon ( 국기원 ) with participation of 35 representatives from the world and until this day there is a total of 205 Member Nations. The World Taekwondo Federation (WTF) has renamed itself to World Taekwondo (WT) in 2017.



Question. What is the name of Taegeuk #3 in Korean?

Taegeuk 태극 (in World Taekwondo (WT)) refers to a set of poomse 품새 used to create a foundation for the teaching of taekwondo. A poomse or form is a detailed pattern of defense-and-attack motions and techniques used in traditional martial arts. Each taegeuk form symbolizes a specific state thought to be indicative of the belt the student currently holds, and is represented in World Taekwondo (WT) by trigrams similar to those found in the four corners of the South Korean flag.



Question. What is the korean terminology for Front Stance?

Front Stance is a precursor of the fighting stance ( 겨루기준비 gyeorugi-junbi ) according to some martial arts authors. Body should be relaxed in this stance ( 서기 sogi ) when performed in patterns ( 품새 poomse ) and self-defense ( 호신술 hosinsool ). Although the specifics of the stance vary by style, overall it is visually similar to a lunge, with the forward leg bent at the knee, and the rear leg straight, while the hips and shoulders remain squarely facing forward.

 

There are five tenets defined in the International Taekwondo Federation (ITF) and several more in World Taekwondo (WT).

Courtesy ( Ye Ui / 예의 ): "Showing courtesy to all, respecting others, having manners as well as maintaining the appropriate etiquette at all times, both within and outside the dojang (도장) (designated training area)." View Taekwondo Tenets »
