In the morning we were practicing stepwise key techniques from pattern for color belts with their ongoing application in pairs/triples. In the first part after the lunch we finalized this exercise and followed up with theory. Master Hwang examined some of us on the Taekwondo tenets that should serve as a guide for each serious student. In case of any doubts those were closely explained. The final part of the session was spent with questions from the audience.
During both sessions Master Hwang emphasized potential mistakes and technical issues and explained the key principles of techniques (that was, by my opinion, very useful for everybody while we could remind many things that are sometimes silently overlooked). Let me note, for example, the importance of the “sine wave” or the explanation for the need of short in “sewo jirugi” and “doo palmok makgi” emphasized and explained by Master Hwang.
At the end of the seminary we had a possibility to take some group photos with Master Hwang (btw. it was a real challenge to form the right shape fitting everybody in the cameras lenses in the high number of people). You can check about hundred photos in the photo gallery.
