This summer we are in for a real treat! Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim just announced that on some weekend this summer, Jung Suwon will go back to basics for a day – out into the woods, into the mountains, to give Jung Suwon warriors young and old a little taste of traditional training!
But what is Jung Suwon back to basics training? Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim points out that while we cannot go back in time, what we can do is go out into nature and connect with it similar how the olden time Masters trained their students. Since we live in the here and now, in the 21st Century, we do have to adapt somewhat.
Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim further invites us to experience Ki energy straight from nature, to learn to connect and utilize that Ki energy in our daily lives. You will come back with increased self-confidence, motivation, Inner Power, inner peace, appreciation for team work, just to name a few.
Here are some pictures to help you visualize what you might experience that day:
So, come on over to Jung Suwon, and let Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim know you want to sign up!
HE CAN DO, SHE CAN DO, WHY NOT ME!
Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim takes forms very seriously at Jung Suwon. “Sparring with your silent partner,” is what Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim calls it. Or, “moving meditation.”
“Either way,” Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim explains, “when you do forms, you must execute each technique with the strength, power, and intensity as if you were to do the technique by itself.” “Each move of a form,” Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim says, has a specific purpose. Each move deserves your full attention.”
So, last week during a Jung Suwon class, Great Grandmaster Tae Yun Kim brought out some boards, to demonstrate to us what she means. For each technique, there were actual boards there, to be broken with each technique of the form!
