COLOR BELT PHILOSOPHY:
The philosophical interpretation of the Blue Belt is:
"The tree reaches for the sky towards new heights." Having passed the midway point, the student focuses his/her energy upwards toward Black Belt.
FORM - Individual action
Power comes from many different sources. Distance, timing, speed, and body weight - shoulder and hips must set direction of strike. Remember, power is a combination of all basic skills. If you have a problem displaying power, check the following basics. Make sure you are performing your techniques correctly. Second, check your balance. And last, check with your instructor for more detailed guidelines.
Segments break down: 5 - 6 - 5 - 6 - 4 - 6 - 4 - 6
In Wha Ee Jahng (2) has 42 movements and its Ki-haps are on the 13th movement (twin upset punch), the 23rd movement (left knifehand low block), and the 33rd movement (right knifehand low block).
FREE SPARRING
Free sparring for testing should be done to exhibit proper technique for the Blue Belt level in combination form.
The first stage of a winning strategy is to understand distance. The second stage is to look for the opponent's weakness - bad habits, slow movements, repeating patterns, etc.
From Sir Walter Scott
One hour of life, crowded to the full with glorious action, and filled with noble risks, is worth years of those mean observances of paltry decorum in which men steal through existence, like sluggish waters through a marsh, without either honor or observation.
