Thanks we have 8 preset that are tought but waslooking for another 4-6 to add forthe beginners.
Why not some 'no-steps', Terry—like, the attacker is already in gripping contact with the defender. Get them doing wristlocks and elbow strikes and so on to break out of grabs and incapacitate the attacker? Something that would teach them about going outside (which is probably the safest way to begin this sort of thing) and counterattacking from out there...not necessarily for the very youngest kids, but for the older younger ones, the 9 and 10 year olds? Just a thought...

That si already in the SD potion of what we teach, I was hoping for something that has been proven to be of use with proper footing and countering when they attack comes froma punch or kick from either side.
A punch coming in from the side... one drill I like to teach for that is to move in close to the attacker with the left arm deflecting the righthand haymakers (and the left arm deflecting the lefthand attacks, etc), and rotating the opposite side of the body from the deflecting hand so that only that side (as vs. the defender's front) faces the attacker, and delivering a hard rotated palm-heel strike to the face with the arm on that side. So they do take a step inward—it's good for them to learn to close the distance, that they're safer doing that than backing away (as long as they follow up without hesitation). Was this the kind of thing you had in mind?

Steal a few from systems like American kenpo. Or do some flow drills from silat. Both will teach an economy of motion that is frequently ignored in taekwondo practice.

I would suggest experimenting with your existing one-steps, but with both participants in natural stances at “talking distance”, the attacker throwing his strike to actually hit the defender. You start gentle and work the intensity up, and complicate it using predetermined attacks, a choice of several attacks, and the possibility of repeated attacks if the defender doesn’t end the bout immediately. This can give some very interesting results, is fun, and very quickly shows which one-steps are “teaching” one-steps (i.e. for learning timing and movement) and which ones are “fighting” one-steps. It’s a nice bridge to the more dedicated SD stuff.

We don't have preset moves either, it might be worth looking at Wado's Ohyo Gumite though? I know them but don't know if it's any good for what you are looking for.

Terry,
I typed up something a while back for my own reference. It only covers what I went through before the doctor told me to stop but it might be useful. Look just under the belt colour for a description of what the attacker does for the lower belts. We had 3 one steps you had to learn for each belt level and for most of those the attacker did the same thing each time.
