Meaning Video Step by Step Download PDF
Taegeuk Yookjang is the sixth training pattern (Poomsae) in Taekwondo.
Taegeuk Yookjang is required for 2nd Kup Red Belt grade.
The student should execute the 23 movements (31 techniques) with fluidity and a gentle confidence as if every movement is a natural response to any obstacle or hardship that is to be overcome and dealt with.
The unusual motions associated with the two turning kicks, introduced for the first time within this pattern, are meant as a reminder that just like flowing water, the Taekwondo student can flow in any direction without hesitation.
