THEORY
TYPICAL THEORY FOR 8TH KUPS
Theory for your 8th Kup grading typically consists of 3 questions relating to the training that you have done so far
THE MOST COMMON QUESTIONS ARE:-
What is the meaning of your pattern?
How many movements does it have?
What is the korean for Front Kick, and what part of the foot do you use? (the same question is often asked for Turning Kick)
What is the Korean for 3 step sparing?
What is the Korean for guarding block, and what is its purpose?
Who are the founder members of the UKTKD?
Remember that these are just examples of questions you might be asked at a grading, a student should have a good knowledge of their theory before going to grade.
JUNIOR THEORY QUESTIONS
For the juniors, depending on age and ability, we tend to make the theory questions much easier.
THE MOST COMMON JUNIOR QUESTIONS ARE:-
What is the name of your pattern and how many movements does it have?
Why do we learn 3 step sparing?
Whats your favorite part of Tae Kwon-Do?
