===TRAINING SCHEDULE=== ==(Sooryon Gehoek Pyo)== In any undertaking, good planning reduces the risks and increases the probability of success. Well planned programs properly carried out can be likened to catching fish with a net while poorly planned programs can be compared to catching fish with one's bare hands, an obviously inefficient and wasteful exercise. As training for Taekwon-Do mobilizes the muscles of the entire body, it requires a large amount of energy. A student must move up gradually, from the easy steps to the more difficult, from the basic to the more advanced stages of the development process. In this manner, the student will not only enhance his health but will develop his techniques thoroughly and consistently. A Taekwon-Do instructor is responsible for the planning of the detailed training schedule for each of his students, particularly the grade holders, so that the programs set for them can be carried out properly and on a timely basis, with students receiving the right amount of instruction in the specified time. The training schedule ideally should provide a general overview of all of the training programs which in turn are broken into more detailed steps showing the course outline for each class and grade level within a particular program. The training schedule listed here is a rather broad one. For beginners training for first degree black belt, however, it does present the basic requirement. It is necessary for the instructor to formulate a detailed master training program and lesson plan. This will allow the course to be conducted in a more efficient manner. There are three rather important rules that should be followed: - Teach students by rank to avoid unnecessary duplication of exercises by senior students. - Divide the class into courses for children, adult, and senior citizens. This will enable everyone to practice without fear of either injury or over exertion. - Rather than allowing the whole class to rest at the same time break the training schedule up so one group is able to rest while watching another group practice. The group resting should be aligned at the furthest extreme of the practice area and should remain silent while the other group is training. There is a beneficial side effect in this method. The resting group will be able to spot mistakes their classmates are making, thereby correcting their own. {{ :volume01:v0100111.jpg?nolink |}} **MASTER PROGRAM** ^ Grade ^ Fundamental Exercise ||^

One of the great advantages of Taekwon-Do is the ability to train a large mass of students at one single session. This is especially valuable for training military personnel. Mass training is divided into both ordinary and special classes. 1. ORDINARY CLASS. This is conducted for all men, including officers, and is broken down into the following successive courses. A. FIRST COURSE((Amended to capital letters per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia)) This course((Typo corrected per pg 410 of condensed encyclopedia)) should teach simple basic posture, fundamental movement, and beginner's patterns; CHON-JI and DAN-GUN ((Added the text following this note per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia))besides 3-step sparring. Here the student is beginning to toddle and discover the use of his ((Added the text "hands and" per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia))hands and legs for the first time. In two months, the student can be eligible for any grade from 10th to 7th, depending on the mental and physical achievement. This course should take two months. B. SECOND COURSE((Amended to capital letters per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia)) This phase of instruction should teach 2-step and 1-step sparring along with DO-SAN and WON-HYO patterns. In this course emphasis is placed ((Added the text "on the" per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia))on the proper use of the feet. Of course, there is constant repetition of technique learned in the first course. Here the student is walking freely and attempting to run. Upon completion of this course the student can be promoted to any grade from 6th to 5th grade, again depending on his ability. This course should also take two months. C. THIRD COURSE((Amended to capital letters per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia)) In the first half of this course, students learn foot techniques, semi-free sparring and free sparring. The students advance to YUL-GOK and JOON-GUN patterns, and some basic self-defence techniques. In the second half of the course the student is introduced to bayonet drill and practical methods of defense against armed opponents. The adolescent student is now running freely and is qualified to hold any grade from 4th to 3rd. This is another two month course. 2. SPECIAL CLASS. This class is primarily for training instructors and assistant instructors. The first, second, and third courses are nearly the same as those of the ordinary class with the exception that though the courses are shorter, the daily training is for a longer period. A. FOURTH COURSE((Amended to capital letters per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia)) In this course, the students receive more intensive training to develop muscles and sparring techniques. The students begin to practice TOI-GYE and HWA-RANG patterns. Now the student can not only run, but jump as well. Upon completion of this course the students are eligible for 2nd and 1st grade, This course should take three months. B. FIFTH COURSE((Amended to capital letters per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia)) This course is a preparatory course for obtaining a black belt. Here the instructor scrutinizes the students and appraises their confidence, leadership ability, moral courage and humility((Amended spelling per pg 410 of the condensed encyclopedia. Original spelling: humulity)). Not only is the adult student running and jumping but he also possesses the technique and confidence to participate in any sporting event. Once the student has mastered HWA-RANG and CHOONG-MOO patterns, he may test for 1st degree black belt. This course should take a minimum of three months. 3. TRAINING HALL An indoor training hall should have a wooden floor so the student can practice barefooted. A wooden floor also offers the flexibility needed to enable students to perform their techniques at an optimum. An outdoor training area is obviously ideal for training a large mass of students, perhaps company size. It should be set up on a level, preferably grassy area. Students are allowed to wear shirts and tennis shoes outdoors. 4. TERMS OF TRAINING An individual soldier, training one hour per day six days a week, should finish the basic Taekwon-Do training in less than six months. In the advanced phase of the special class, potential instructors must train eight hours per day for an additional six months. {{ :volume01:v0100122.jpg?nolink |}}
