Taekwondo Session!

Tonight's session focused primarily on new patterns! We have had a few people grade recently (myself included!) and now that the competition has passed it gave us an ideal opportunity to make some progress on our new Tul's!

My new pattern is called Joong-Gun and if you are interested you can see it here! 

I have learned up to the point where he turns his back after the 2 consecutive double punch moves (High section, Mid Section) and in that small section alone there are some tricky new techniques and stances! 

So yeah, that was today's session and as usual I throughly enjoyed it! Especially as it wasn't hard on my legs ... The 5 miles earlier have left me stiff!
