Grading
General Information
A grading is a practical examination of a student’s skill at and knowledge of Taekwondo. Upon grading successfully, you will be awarded a new belt or tag. At this club we grade three times a year (normally on the last weekend of each term) and the grading is taken by Master S. Blomeley 6th Dan, assisted by Instructors Dave and Terry, in accordance with the Ki- Taekwondo Association (BTCB) syllabus. The instructors will decide whether or not you have reached the necessary standard to be able to grade.
Poomsae
Poomse (Patterns)
In taekwondo, a Poomse is a pattern of a series of pre-arranged sequences of attack and defence movements against an imaginary opponent or opponents. They are designed to improve power, accuracy and speed. The patterns are designed to make the movements into reflex actions rather than conscious thought. The patterns also contain hidden information for the more senior or mature students which include vital point attacks and pressure point work.
