Chon-Ji of Tae Kwon Do Hyung (English and Spanish Edition) Paperback – April 1, 1970

If you're just getting start in traditional Japanese or Korean stand up, this would be a great book to add to your collectionI got this as a gift when I was about 5 or 6 years old from my cousins boyfriend and just starting out in Tae Kwon Do under Master Bak. I remember thinking it was the coolest thing I'd ever gotten. Well I grew up and lost it; So I bought it again. Looking at it, I realized that the forms taught in here apply to pretty much every traditional martial art I've ever learned. I'm currently studying Shin-kyokushin Karate and Shobukan (One of the Okinawan styles of) Karate in Japan for my stand up. And though I didn't need the book, the forms are almost identical and laid out in such a manner that they are easy to follow.

I purchased this for historical purposes-I no longer practice these hung but I love GM Rhee's excellent presentation

Great

Was in good condition, as promised. Will enjoy this for many years!

Good basic info, on the old the forms and basic Korean terminology. pretty good pics considering the age of book.

Hard to find. Perfect

This book is a great overview of the first ITF Taekwondo form, chon-ji. This book is a no-nonsense book, in that just facts and techniques are presented instead of endless theory. Great stuff!

I am using this book right now and learning my forms and moves for my belt test coming up in August. GREAT MATERIAL. Thanks Mr. Rhee

Bought this as it was the logical book to start with, Content on Pattern limitedUseful? Maybe, I will look at 1 of the more advanced colour belt books and then post a more reseached review

Cet exemplaire (égaré peut-être) correspond à l'édition de ceux que j'avais acheté dans les années 77-78 en Thaïlande lorsque je pratiquais encore le Tae Kwon Do.
