Pattern Toi-Gye
Theory
Introduction
Yet more emphasis will be placed on the speed and power of the
application of your techniques at this level, helping you to
reach a stage of practical ability in self-defence. Still the
technical details of each movement will also increase, but it is
important that once you understand the moves and can perform
them well technically you learn to reduce conscious thought
processes and rely more on muscle memory; this will result in
greater speed and flow. Your pattern contains a greater
assortment of moves and combinations, including your second jump
(predictably more difficult than your first at Blue Tag) and
your second posture movement. At your grading you will again be
asked to perform free sparring and semi-free sparring at
advanced level, testing your improvement in reading your
opponents movements quickly and responding with an appropriate
block, performed both swiftly and powerfully, and an effective
counter attack. You will also move onto 1 step sparring basic
level, where you have the chance to choose your own block and
sequence of counter attacks to a single punch. This is designed
to help a student learn the effective action of finishing off an
opponent with controlled movements in rapid motion.
