Poomsae (Forms)

REQUIREMENTS:
— Fire & Metal All Belts - Basic 1
— Fire Color Belts - Basic 2
— Metal Yellow through Orange - Basic 4
— Metal Green through Red - Basic 6
We strongly encourage learning one's belt-specific form as well (White=Basic 1, Yellow=Basic 2, Purple=Basic 3, etc.)
The Basic forms are a cornerstone of Master Kim's approach to martial arts. These original creations are each a meditation on a unique tradition or discipline that Master Kim has encountered throughout the decades. The forms should be practiced with attention to technique, control over power, and an awareness of the intended flow of energy. We recommend the forms as mindful exercises for both parents and children to refocus and rebalance.
