Book excerpt: This training guide is intended for all students of tae kwon-do. It is the only up-to-date and official training manual of the Tae Kwon-do Association of Great Britain and it covers the four novice grades which are incorporated into the White and Yellow Belts. The beginner is taken through a series of warm-up exercises; courtesy rituals are then explained and the basic punches, kicks, strikes and blocks of tae kwon-do are described. Common faults are identifed and the appropriate remedies are suggested. The book then goes on to deal with prearranged sparring and patterns, breaking each down into easy-to-follow constituent parts. The depth of these technical descriptions will also make this manual an invaluable source of reference for more advanced students and coaches. Lavishly illustrated with over 300 photographs, this publication has been written by the most senior and respected instructors of the Tae Kwon-do Association of Great Britain. It contains the definitive account of how tae kwon-do techniques should be performed.
