Taekwondo Patterns-Video1

A Pattern is a series of offensive and defensive movements against and imaginary opponent or opponent(s).

Thus pattern practise enables the student to go through many fundamental movements in series to develop sparring techniques. Patterns improve flexibility of movements, master body shifting, build muscles and breath control, develop fluid, smooth and rhythmical movements.

Patterns also enable a student to acquire certain special techniques which cannot be obtained from either fundamental exercises or sparring. Therefore, within a pattern, a student performs the technical artistic side of our art.
