According to the World Taekwondo Federation, there are over 90,000,000 taekwondo practitioners worldwide. Every level 1 black belt student is required to learn Poomsae Koryo. Yet, few are familiar with the ancestral form known as the 'Original Koryo'. Prearranged forms known as poomsae in taekwondo, are a primary method of transmitting martial arts skills from teacher to student. As sport preference supplanted fighting preference in taekwondo's reason for existence, the Original Koryo was modified in kind to today's well-known Koryo. Written specifically for level 1 and level 2 black belt students, this book is a scholarly attempt to capture, transmit and preserve as an inheritance, the historical treasures and technical elements inherent in Original Koryo and Koryo, as well as the applications less obvious or even secretly encoded in these forms. This knowledge will benefit those seeking more than triumph in the ring or aerobic fulfillment from their taekwondo training. In summary, students will find in this book: History and philosophy Technical elements for learning the basics Detailed instruction for learning Koryo Detailed instruction for learning Original Koryo Over two hundred photographs, line of motion charts, stepping patterns, and martial applications are provided throughout this in-depth instructional book.

En el ano 1443, durante la dinastia Joseon, fue creado el Hangul o alfabeto coreano. La forma de cada consonante refleja la forma de los organos vocales al pronunciar esa letra. Las vocales, por su parte, representan tres elementos del universo: el cielo, la tierra y la humanidad. Al combinar estas 28 letras en bloques silabicos es posible transcribir cualquier sonido del idioma coreano. Tomando la base anterior me he adentrado en el mundo del taekwondo, intentando traducir a nuestro idioma, el espanol, el significado de las tecnicas de manos y piernas utilizadas en este antiguo arte marcial. Para esto he confeccionado un amplio glosario con muchos de los terminos utilizados principalmente en las formas de color como asi tambien en las de cinturon negro. Esperando que este primer intento de una mejor comprension respecto al vocabulario sobre el arte marcial que practicamos sea de utilidad para todos los practicantes.
