ZeRo Posted February 24, 2003 Author Posted February 24, 2003 i found chon ji hard to learn from a book! id hate to think of the time your having. aint you got anyone that can teach you it? ive always wondered how you can learn i form when your the most senior person in your area?
KickChick Posted February 24, 2003 Posted February 24, 2003 Oh I'm learning the forms in class but I practice at home constantly and it is difficult to remember every movement. I would like to refer to a video (watching it over and over). We only go through our forms once (I now do about 12-13 forms) and the new ones we begin to learn we do maybe once or twice step by step then "free practice".....
John G Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 KickChick, I have the videos and the cdrom http://www.comdo.com/cdrom.htm and would recommend the cdrom, as the patterns on the cd are viewable in full motion, one move at a time and frame by frame. Check with comdo to see if your computer operating system is compatible with the cd. John G Jarrett III Dan, ITF Taekwon-Do
KickChick Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 Thank you so much John (I had a feeling you would know!!...ITF and all ) ... the Black Belt Series is what I want, .... seems the colored belt series is only available in cdrom
Blue Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 Have you thought about having someone video tape while your in class ? If allowable this would seem to be a simple, cost effective solution.
KickChick Posted February 25, 2003 Posted February 25, 2003 True .... could do that I suppose. Would be nice to have the whole series of bb forms in my possession though. Not even our 4th dan knows all of them (we have changed our dan requirements because of affiliation with a new TKD org. so no. of forms for each dan level has increased)..... He is even trying to catch up!
John G Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 .... seems the colored belt series is only available in cdrom Sorry KickChick the old grey matter isn’t working for me today, are you saying that the coloured belt series in video format http://www.comdo.com/video.htm is no longer available, or the cdrom only contains the coloured belt patterns? If it’s the latter, I can assure you that all 24 patterns and the 2 fundamental exercises are contained on the cdrom. Respectfully, P.S. Congratulations on the 3000 posts, you have contributed a lot of valuable material to KF and helped make KF one of the most informative and friendly online resources in the martial arts community. Keep it up John G Jarrett III Dan, ITF Taekwon-Do
tkdlegend Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 guys, if you need a little help, this might be handy i have dled ALL the patterns from https://www.tkdnsw.org.au they arent the best picture, and they arent frame by frame, but they helped me out a little -= To truly be immortal, you must be ready to face death. =-
KickChick Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 Thanks tkdlegend for trying to offer some assistance with that link however those are not the Chang Hon forms (ITF not KTA)what are you affiliated with now? Our school is now a member of the ITU http://www.taekwondo.to/ and uses all 25 forms of the ITF .... and forms are included on their site also. It's just that I though this video (Black Belt series) would be easier for me to view and better quality. are you saying that the coloured belt series in video format http://www.comdo.com/video.htm is no longer available, or the cdrom only contains the coloured belt patterns? If it’s the latter, I can assure you that all 24 patterns and the 2 fundamental exercises are contained on the cdrom. John... I see the price of the colored belt series and though as I only really need Kwang Gae to Moon Moo I would look into the BB Series.... (which is only available in video.. Congratulations on the 3000 posts, you have contributed a lot of valuable material to KF and helped make KF one of the most informative and friendly online resources in the martial arts community. Keep it up Thank you John for the kind words,, its members like you that keep me coming back! ....as long as I am able to
