In Conclusion
Working with the Chon-Ji pattern is a pleasure. Specifically the Chon-Ji draws focus to its individual diagramatic movements in the cross form, emphasising 90° and 180° turning movements. Also as with all Taekwondo patterns there are the same set of positive self improvement areas. These benefits include...
Co - Ordination
Working with the Taekwondo patterns is a great way to improve your co-ordination
Concentration
Just working through these patterns for set a number of days, you will find your ability to concentrate increase
Balance
Unlimited ability improvement when it comes to balance. The more you practice movement the better you'll get.
Change of Direction
Your enemies won't attack from the same direction twice. An ability to change direction in combat is key.
