MEANING OF TAE-GEUK POOMSE
Tae-Geuk Poomse #5 (Tae-Geuk Oh-Jang, 4th Gup)
Symbol is Sohn, meaning Wind
The wind is so gentle when it is a breeze and devastating when it becomes a hurricane (human power can also be used either way). Tae-Geuk Oh-Jang is designed to develop the inner energy and kinetic force of the body with the application of the two opposite phenomena of nature. The new movements are: hammer fist, elbow strike, side kick with side punch, and jumping cross stance. Special attention is required in striking a specific target area with the elbow.
