Tae Kwon Do Essentials: 7 Principles for Mastery

by Jay Armstrong

Have you ever wondered how Master Tae Kwon Do instructors acquired their amazing skill and ability? They were not born with it. They practiced hard and worked hard. You can also master these skills! This process will take many hours and a great amount of effort. If you don’t know what to practice, however, the process will take much, much longer. This book gives you the guiding principles that will enable you to greatly reduce the amount of training time required for mastery.

Practicing poor technique will make you better at poor technique by developing compensations. Continued practice of poor techniques will develop habits that you must work harder to unlearn. Tae Kwon Do Essentials: 7 Principles for Mastery reveals the secrets distilled from decades of training and study. Follow these principles and each of your training sessions will take on new meaning. You can increase the effectiveness of your workouts by knowing what you are trying to achieve during your practice.

This book covers skill training for both Taegeuk forms and Olympic sparring techniques. Supplemental practice forms that will help with the development of sparring skills are included in the appendix.
