11. Taekwondo Poomsae Taebaek (WTF)

[eemmmmaaxD]

For me

Koryo - 1st dan

Taebak and Keumgang - 2nd dan

pyongwon - 3rd dan etc

[Sparkleslovestosmile]

I learnt this pattern when I was a yellow belt for some reason :\

[TKDdude908]

in ITF this is the first form we learn when we get 2 dan.

[wowantonlavey]

First modern taekwondo be it wtf or itf is mainly based on shotokan. ITF patterns are basically the same and wtf patterns are different but stances kicks and strikes etc are the same. 2nd the WTF sets out standards of testing, color belt up to and including BB you can be tested on any and all patterns you know. Its not common to not test your highest but it does happen. And there is no brown belt in tkd, and no taebaek in karatae internet experts ftl

[dtabosh11]

my class you need to know taebaek for brown belt

[cxtranger]

I had a nightmare the other night that I was testing for my 3rd degree and I didn't know anything. Thanks to your videos I am able to study the forms i couldn't remember, and observe the ones I did remember. Thank you.

[scalethree]

taebek is for the 3 dan!

[johnzagetsu]

i really need this../

[toppc]

looks like sam chil and pal jang together

[withzyou]

Why do these poomsaes lack the precision and complexity of Shotokan katas?

[dcosmillo1]

@withzyou what are you talking about? are you trying to say shotokan is better because i am a third degree in both taekwondo and karate and i gotta be honest, shotokan was a very boring style when it came to forms. it's lazy, and too many cat stances

[roguerthree1]

why do all these videos need to have WTF at the end of the name

[MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA]

@roguerthree1 World Taekwondo Federation. People learning from teachers who don't use wtf as a guideline might teach the forms differently.

[1997stewart]

for me its koryo for 1st, kumgang for 2nd, taebaek 3rd

[MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHA]

@1997stewart same here

[noslen1968]

@1997stewart maybe in the 'States where the tests tend to be more difficult - my first dan test back home sure was. But here in Korea, I tested at the Kukkiwon for my 2nd dan with Koryo and a random Taegeuk along with two minutes of light sparring - first dan = Taegeuk 8. For the third dan test I am practicing Kumgang. Look at the official WTF site and see the actual requirements. In Korea it is more of a formality after your instructor has recommended you for the test.

[Boo4716]

@1997stewart no that's wrong.how TKDEsra says it's for the 4th Dan.Taeguk pal jang is for the 1st,koryo for 2nd,kumgang for 3rd and taebaek for 4th.

[1997stewart]

@Boo4716 no thats totally wrong. well idk i guess their different based on wether its WTF or ITF. stuff like that. but im positive that in WTF taekwondo which ive been doing for 11 years straight that koryo is 1st kumgang is 2nd and taebaek is 3rd.

[Boo4716]

@1997stewart but in summer i will do my black belt and i need taeguk paljang for it...so that what you're saying is totally wrong.

[FairyOfFlowers22]

@1997stewart same for me.

[ecchymosis666]

please refer to page 110 of taekwondo official kukkiwon textbook 3rd edition...

[ecchymosis666]

@ecchymosis666 sorry guys I didnt mean to repeat that many times,,,

[liukolun]

Almost every school is different. So it could be 2nd or 3th dan. The only way we would know is if Kukkiwon tells us themselves . As for me I'm learning it in 3th dan.

[TraditionalTKD]

@TheF0etus

My instructor is a direct student of Chung Do Kwan Head Woon Kyu Uhm, so I know a little about it.

[TraditionalTKD]

Actually, this form is learned at 2nd Dan.

[ecchymosis666]

@TraditionalTKD koryo is 2nd, keumgang is 3rd, taebaek is 4th...however, in testing, it's expected from students or masters to perform the next higher form...

[TraditionalTKD]

@ecchymosis666 Incorrect. Koryo and Kumgang are 1st Dan, Kumgang and Taebaek are 2nd Dan, Taebaek and PyongWon are 3rd Dan, PyongWon and SipJin are 4th Dan.

[ecchymosis666]

@TraditionalTKD please refer to the page 110, taekwondo official kukkiwon textbook 3rd edition...

[ecchymosis666]

@TraditionalTKD please refer to page 110 of taekwondo official kukkiwon textbook 3rd edition...

[TraditionalTKD]

@ecchymosis666 Our 2nd Dan students learn Taebaek, and we are authorized and certified by the Kukkiwon. We do Taebaek for 3rd Dan test.

[whitedragonawa]

When i learned this form I was taught that the palm blocks were controlled breathing with tensed up muscles. Did they change it or something? This guy did them as if they were just regular speed.

[fatcontroller]

See he dose not step back wards why.

[JasonTongRulz]

"Lightness" my ass. SNAP SNAP.

[7m28]

lol this is more for instructional purposes so thats why he's doing it a bit slow. But really, what really represents the "lightness" is the speed of the kicks, double punches, simultaneously side kick & punch, combo punches and chops, and elbows. Those factors represent the lightness, not the pace of how he moves. Remember, its also to resemble the hardiness and strength of the mountain as well.

[kyle1172]

Taekwondo what an effective martial art.....

[victorbillvyse]

this kata looks so easy for a 3rd dan bb

[gurmumum]

this is 2 dan patten right

[TKDEsra]

nope, 4th.

[MasterMacLeod]

Over here it is required for 2nd.

[h0rangi]

4th? woah..

i'd enjoy watching this sabeom performing the pattern moon moo tul, now thats a 4th dan pattern

[JPlesley]

its 3rd is it not, koryo is 1st, keumgang is 2nd this is 3rd

[thehornypuppy]

@TKDEsra Oh so that's why i kept on getting yelled at? Ooooh...

[Kaiserhuff]

@TKDEsra I'm learning it at 2nd, in preparation for 3rd. Just to get that out there.

[Boo4716]

@Kaiserhuff yeah but it's wrong...taebaek is for the 4th Dan.
