..". the art merely became like a domesticated wild cat, content to
sleep whilst still retaining a savagery at its heart enabling it to
bare its teeth when required." - John Dowding, 4th degree Ch'ang
Hon Taekwon-do Hae Sul: Real Applications To The ITF Patterns, Vol.
2 continues where the ground breaking Vol. 1 left off. In Vol. 2
the senior patterns of the Ch'ang Hon System up to 2nd Dan, have
gone through the same in-depth analysis as the lower grade patterns
originally did, with each one having been examined, dissected and
rebuilt to help the student of Taekwon-do to understand what is
really contained within the patterns we practice in Taekwon-do.
Patterns Hwa-Rang, Choong-Moo, Kwang-Gae, Po-Eun, Ge-Baek, Eui-Am,
Choong-Jang, Ko-Dang and Juche have been examined in-depth to find
more realistic applications for their movements - based upon what
the author refers to as their 'DNA'. In this volume, even the ready
postures and stances have been examined and the results are
documented in step by step photographic detail, using over 2,200
photographs. Comprising over 350 pages, this book not only shows
more realistic applications to the Red Belt, 1st Dan and 2nd Dan
patterns, but also explains how it is possible to achieve these
applications in the first place, why General Choi, Hong Hi, the
founder of Ch'ang Hon Taekwon-do couldn't make the same
conclusions, as well as expelling a falsehood that has been with
Taekwon-Do since its inception After reading this book, the
patterns of Taekwon-do no longer seem just a collection of
movements, performed in a dance-like fashion for competitions or
gradings, but become realistic techniques that can actually be
utilised as real world self defence applications - making this a
must-read companion to Vol. 1, for all students who study and
practice Taekwon-do.
