taegeuk 6 jang

Taegeuk 6 Jang

Meaning : Taegeuk 6 jang symbolizes the "Kam", one of the 8 divination signs, which represents water, meaning incessant flow and softness. New movements are hansonnal olgul bakkat makki, dollyo-chagi, olgul bakkat-makki and batangson momtong-makki in addition to pyonhiseogi (at-ease stance). One should be careful to make the kicking foot land on the ground correctly after dollyo-chagi and to lower the hand by a palm's length at the time of delivering a batangson momtong-makki lower than in the palmok-makki. This is practiced by the 3rd Kup-graders.
