    Referring to the Poomsae Taeguk Oh Chang is the representation of the principle «Seon» and means «wind». It is made up of three lines, called a trigram, made up of one split line and another two complete lines.

    What movements take place in the Taeguk Oh Chang poomsae?

    This poomsae does not have short positions, called ap sogui. It stands out for having movements such as: yop chagui and me chumok; as well as palkup piochok chigui and dung chumok ap chigui. It is recommended to maintain good control and / or mastery of the positions, especially when finishing, since it must end where the poomsae started.

    In the poomsae Taeguk Oh Chang it is necessary that if you want to do it you pay special attention to the rhythm of the movements as well as the power of the techniques. The quality of the ap and yop chaguis must be taken into account, as they are fundamental kicks.

    This type of poomsae is performed for the passing of the degree to the green belt, that is, it must be a compulsory poomsae for those who are completing the green belt stage, predecessor of the orange.

    COMPOSITION:

    • Sequences: 20
    • Movements: 32

    What would be the sequence scheme?

    Let us remember that each poomsae begins and ends with a greeting with the aim of transmitting respect through a kind of veneration, where the torso and head must be bowed, slide the hands down the thigh and fix the gaze for a few seconds on the feet. These movements and sequences, in total 20, are generally ideal for showing power. Below we will explain each of the sequences in detail for a higher level of understanding:

    Sequence 1 (Ap kubi sogui – Are maki): perform the long front position, which will be twice the length of the shoulders. The rear leg will be stretched, sixty percent of the weight will go on the front leg while forty percent corresponds to the rear leg. Now run Are maki, this being one of the most basic movements in taekwondo, also known as defense down. It begins by carrying one of the arms to the opposite shoulder, in this case moving the left arm, it is important to take into account that the base of the hand that was mobilized must touch the shoulder without any force on any part of the body, since it’s just a preparation move. Then the hip must be turned, while the other arm is slightly flexed in front of us. Then the movement must be carried out, which consists of lowering the fist on the right shoulder and running down with force, remember to keep the elbow close to the body while lowering the hand, since it guarantees that the distance between the leg and the arm is correct.
