Celebrating Taekwon-Do’s Legacy: Patterns from the Taekwon-Do Homeland
Taekwon-Do patterns are more than just physical movements; each embodies profound historical and philosophical lessons deeply connected to Korea’s rich historical heritage.
In this special weekly series, generously provided by the Korean Taekwon-Do Committee, we proudly share demonstrations of ITF Patterns performed by Korean Masters and Instructors. These presentations serve as valuable cultural insights, honoring the historical roots and spiritual essence of Taekwon-Do.
We begin with the very first form, Saju-Jirugi (four direction punch), demonstrated by Master Pak Chung Song (7th Dan, Male, born March 15, 1982). Master Pak, is a Taekwon-Do Master and gold medalist at the 5th Junior World Taekwon-Do Championship, the 13th, 15th, and 16th Taekwon-Do World Championships, as well as the 1st and 2nd International Martial Arts Games (IMGs).
Join us every Friday as we explore the meaningful history behind each pattern.
