Uhr Seite 7 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Acknowledgement We would like to thank all those Taekwondo colleagues, friends and acquaintances, who have helped and supported us in the production of our book “Taekwondo Kids”. In particular we would like to thank Willi Kloss (9th Dan WTF), Thomas Behrendt (5th Dan WTF), Christian Böcker (2nd Dan WTF) and Beate Füssel (2nd Dan WTF) for all the tips and review of the manuscript. Our special thanks goes out to all children practicing Taekwondo and who train for years in this Martial Art and who work at it untiringly, both mentally and physically. Through our training work with children, our understanding for the Martial Arts and human behavior has been deepened. Together we have learned. 7 Taekwondo 14.12.2006 15:11 Uhr Seite 8 TAEKWONDO KIDS “Dear Taekwondo Kids” This book places a guide to practical exercises into your hands and this should lead you along the way to learning the Korean Martial Art. It is common for anyone practicing Taekwondo to have questions crop up while learning and exercising the various points. Am I doing everything right? What purpose does this particular technique serve? What must I know and be able to do for my next belt grading? It is not only the beginners, who ask this kind of question. On the contrary, advanced students and even the Masters ask them as well. Irrespective of the point you have reached, there is always something new to learn. If you have got questions while you are training, then your instructor or trainer is there for you to answer them and help you. Sometimes there are also questions that crop up after your training or while you are practicing at home. Because your trainer is not there to answer them, it is good to have a different source to help you with them, like in the form of a practical handbook. So that you aren’t left out in the cold with your questions, so to speak, we have written this book for you. Here we hope that you can find all the important sought after answers, tips and encouragement. In the first instance, this book is an accompaniment to your actual training. Of course, if you haven’t yet started your training in a school or club, you can get your first impressions and important facts about Taekwondo from this book. However, you must not get the impression that you can learn a Martial Art from a book and without the assistance of an instructor. It would be like saying that you could be a professional soccer player because you had watched so many championship games on TV. But, unfortunately it is not as easy as that. If you haven’t started practicing Taekwondo yet and this book has given you an appetite to learn more, seek out and visit a club or school in your neighborhood. Whether you want to browse through the subject first of all, or whether the bug has already bitten you, we wish you all success while practicing Taekwondo. This book contains everything worth knowing for the beginner from White belt to Yellow/Green belt in this Korean Martial Art. The techniques are covered in accordance 8
