Taekwondo Poomsae: The Fighting Scrolls

This martial arts book digs deep into the standard Taekwondo patterns to extract proven fighting methods that unite ancient philosophy and strategy to teach effective, tactical self-defence. The book follows the history of the Korean people, starting with the myths of its origins dating from 2333 BC, and its culture, focusing on the important historic influences of the surrounding nations. All have combined in the development and evolution of the Korean fighting art of Taekwondo. These ancient and deadly fighting techniques have survived over several millennia, ever since people first defended their lives and property from wild beasts and ravaging bands of criminals. The first part of the book shows simple techniques that have been refined using analysis gained by Koreans over the centuries. It is presented in a careful mix of physical exercises designed to develop spontaneous response from muscle memory in the event of an unavoidable attack. The second half introduces more advanced students of the martial arts to more complex fighting tactics, and the profound philosophy taught to black belts, aimed at uniting body, mind, and spirit.

    Thus at any point of the circle of the Taegeuk, irrespective of which way it is turned, the opposing pair of forces add up to nine. Therefore, the different Taegeuk and Palgwe poomsae may be regarded as separate chapters of a single long poomsae. The philosophy of the Taegeuk is the highest manifestation of training in Taekwondo and is derived from

    The Taegeuk is the manifestation of the principles of the cosmic creation and everything concerning human existence. Infinity is the unending nature of the Taegeuk contained within the circle, and Yin and Yang as negative and positive are separated from each other by the wave-like line of ki flow. These opposite but complementary poles symbolize the two forms of energy within the universe and are the embodiment of the inherent duality of human life.
