I was kind of disappointed to see that Hwa Sun, So RIm Jang Kwan, and Tae Kyuk Kwon weren't included in any of the books/manuals/lists I have/have seen...If I want I'll learn them on my own at the appropriate level But I have a way to go from Sam Dan

Came across this when I was searching for something on Google.

Nice to see SOOOO many verities in the art.

I see some still have Jang Kwon, Tai Gi Hyul and Sa Bang Kwon!
Cool!

[LutherUnleashed]

Tang Soo Do in particular has so many different branches from lineages that have gone in completely different directions. I think this brings a variety and makes it colorful but at the same time lacking the structure when somebody says they do the heart you always have to ask what lineage or variation.

The other negative about it is that there becomes no standards because everybody has taught differently.

The way i teach it…
White belt - kichu il bu
Yellow belt - kichu ee bu
Purple - kichu sam bu
Orange - pyung ahn Cho dan
Blue - pyung ahn ee dan
Green - pyung ahn Sam dan
Brown - pyung ahn sa dan
Red - pyung ahn oh dan
Red w/stripe - bassai soh
Black belt - bassai dae

2nd Dan
Naihanchi 1-2
Bo form 1

3rd Dan
Kong sang koon
Bo form 2

4th dan (master rank)
Ro hai (sometimes written Lo Hi)
Naihanchi Sam Dan

Forms are an important part of the lineage, but I have slowly moved away from obsession over forms and now focus more on fighting combinations and self defense.
