Ch'ang Hon Taekwon-do Hae Sul
Real Applications To The ITF Patterns Vol: 1Ground breaking book that studies the history and development of the Ch'ang Hon (ITF) Taekwon-do patterns as devised, taught and developed by the founder of Taekwon-do General Choi, Hong Hi.
Ch'ang Hon Taekwon-do Hae Sul is an in-depth study of the Ch'ang Hon Taekwon-do patterns, their history, their roots, Taekwon-do's evolution, its genetic make up, its differences with other martial arts and the techniques and movements which define the system, detailing for the first time since its inception, realistic interpretations for the patterns Chon-Ji, Dan-Gun, Do-San, Won-Hyo, Yul-Gok, Joong-Gun and Toi-Gye, as well as Saju Jirugi and Saju Makgi.
It has over 17 chapters (350 big pages) with over 1,600 photographs. The patterns are examined, dissected and rebuilt and are easy to understand for both students and instructors. Many applications were previously unknown and undocumented.
It turns your patterns into a realistic way of training actual self defence techniques that work and turn them into something much more than they are practiced today.
The book also has a fascinating insight into the history of the Ch'ang Hon patterns as well as Taekwon-do itself. Covering unknown, undocumented or understudied principles.
I agree, it is indeed a milestone for the development of Taekwon-do
