Patterns

Chon Ji

 

I do not own this video. The video belongs to Katarina Terzic Conrad. The pattern is done by Master Joshua Hong.

This is the first Tae Kwon Do pattern new practicers learn. Chon Ji means “the Heaven the Earth”. In the orient interpreted as the creation of the world or the beginning of human history, therefore it is the initial pattern played by the beginner. This pattern consists of two similar parts: one to represent Heaven and the other Earth. There are a total of nineteen movements in Chon Ji.
