An old proverb
says that even heaven cannot make a diligent worker ,poor.
However, in Taekwon -do diligence or intensive training alone
does not produce quality techniques.
On the contrary, instructions from a false or unqualified instructor
would be worse than not being taught at all because
unscientific movements not only reduce the power but require a
tremendous amount of time to correct.
On the other hand, under the proper guidance of a competent
instructor , a student who trains earnestly with dedication will
learn the true techniques of Taekwon-do in a comparatively short
period of time with less effort.
Student should keep in mind the
following secrets :
1. To study the theory of
power thoroughly.
2. To understand the purpose
and meaning of each movement clearly.
3. To bring the movement of
eyes, hands, feet and breath into a single coordinated action.
4. To choose the appropriate
attacking tool for each vital spot.
5. To become familiar with the
correct angle and distance for attack and defense.
6. Keep both the arms and legs
bent slightly while movement is in motion .
7. All movements must begin
with a backward motion with very few exceptions.
8. To create a sine wave
during the movement by utilizing the knee spring properly.
