How to complete your Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit
Your Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit has been designed as an interactive PDF. For the best experience, use this
document with Adobe Acrobat Reader which you can freely download from Adobe. Using Adobe Acrobat
Reader will ensure that you can save your progress as you go.

Much of the content in this Study Kit can be completed electronically, however it is important that you check
with your instructor to find out how they would like to receive your answers: either as a printed document or
as a PDF.

Certain sections will need to be printed, so it is best to fill in as much information as


you can before printing. Sections such as the practical applications should be printed
and taken with you to class for your instructor to review and sign. These sections are
identified with the icon of a printer in the top corner of the page. Click on that
printer icon and you will print only that page. Be sure to keep these documents safe;
the completed practical applications are to be submitted as part of your application
for Jo Kyo certification.

Class warm-up and stretching fundamentals
Introduction
A proper warm-up and stretch helps prepare the body for training in Soo Bahk Do. Maximize the use of class
time by introducing the theme along with implementing some movements of the class emphasis, content, or
drills while focusing on the use of huri through your warm-up. This will allow students to become more
comfortable with the drill that is being taught as well as focusing on the use of the hip while warming up the
body for class. Following this process will connect with the goal of creating and building productive habits as a
Moo Do In and ultimately improve the foundation of our sparring proficiency. Moo do huri warm-up drills are
an important and valuable beginning to each class.

Warm-up with dynamic stretching


Warm-ups should include exercises that loosen up the joints of the body such as neck, shoulders, hips, knees,
and ankles. Dynamic stretching is a movement-based type of stretching. It's different from traditional "static"
stretching because the stretch position is not held. Dynamic stretches are controlled movements that prepare
muscles, ligaments and other soft tissues for performance and safety. Example of dynamic stretching include
huri-twisting, lunges and doing multiple repetitions (4-6) holding an isolated contraction or expansion for two
seconds at a time.

Cool-down with static stretching


After a workout, when the body is warm, static stretching improves flexibility and range of motion, it can also
help muscles recover faster, leading to less pain and stiffness. Static stretches are those in which you stand, sit,
or lie still and hold a single position for period of time. Proper breathing in connection to stretching increases
circulation, relaxes the body and helps get rid of lactic acid buildup. Each stretch, breathe deep into the muscle.
Breathe in through the nose and allow the abdomen to expand. When exhaling, let the air escape through the
mouth. Remind your students to use their breathe and imagination to increase the focus of the muscle group
being addressed.

Safety in the dojang
Safety is essential in every Moo Duk Kwan® dojang. Studio owners and instructors are obligated to create a safe
environment for every practitioner where they can develop their mind, body, and spirit. A safe dojang begins
with cleanliness. We cannot develop a strong mind, body and spirit in an environment that is not clean. This
idea is described as Hwal by Founder Hwang Kee in the Moo Do Chul Hak. Cleanliness begins with the
separation of clean and unclean areas. That is, areas where shoes are worn and areas where shoes are not
worn. To cultivate our mind, body, and spirit, we separate ourselves from dirt and germs, negative energy. For
this reason, a disciplined cleaning regimen is essential for every moo do dojang. Training areas should be
cleaned regularly and sanitized as often as possible to create an ideal training environment for every
practitioner. Additionally, common areas and restrooms should always be clean so even non practitioners feel
the positive energy of the clean moo do dojang. This also minimizes the transmission of germs onto the training
area. Cleanliness in the dojang is not the exception, but the rule.

A second essential measure to create a safe dojang is the protection or removal of any object that could cause
bodily harm. The dojang should be up to code with all local safety regulations and dangerous objects should be
stored safely. Think of the same safety measures you would want in the home for a child.

Lastly, instructors must ensure that all training methods are as safe as possible. There is certainly inherent risk
in martial arts training, however it is up to the instructors to beware of these risks and to minimize them as
much as possible. The Moo Duk Kwan® curriculum for the Soo Bahk Do martial art provides a natural
progression from Cho Bo Ja to Ko Dan Ja, however it is the instructors responsibility to instill safe training
habits within their dojang. Step by step instruction for every technique enables the practitioner to develop
good habits for each individual technique and thus minimizing injury. Teaching advanced techniques to junior
practitioners increases the potential for injury. As instructors we must remember that our goal is to support
every member in the development of their mind, body, and spirit.

• Five Moo Do Values in Action

18 World Moo Duk Kwan® Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit


Lesson planning and preparation
The wheel method
The wheel method of instruction provides a simple method for planning and organizing your Soo Bahk Do
classes in accordance with Moo Duk Kwan® guidelines. The result is a lesson plan that incorporates a theme or
mental concept, and physical application of the theme students can apply during their class practice.

Class theme – 10%


The mental concept applied and reinforced throughout the class is referred to as the class theme. The class
theme typically relates to some aspect of our Moo Duk Kwan® philosophy – the Eight Key Concepts, Mission
2000, Moo Sang / Yu Sang, etc. “The Five Moo Do Values in Action” is an article authored by H.C. Hwang Kwan
Jang Nim featuring guidance about how to incorporate the Five Moo Do Values into a class theme and is
included in this Study Kit.

Class emphasis – 90%


The physical application or area (e.g. Il Soo Sik, Ho Shin Sul, Hyung, etc.) that you spend the majority of the
class time instructing is referred to as the class emphasis.

Class organization
The mental theme should be carried and applied throughout the class instruction. The time allowed for a single
class can be broken down into sections for ease of organization. An example of this is shown below for a typical
45-minute class:

Class theme: Wan Gup


Cool down; 5 Warm-up; 5
Warm up: 5 minutes

Basic exercises: 10 minutes

One-step sparring: 15 minutes


(class emphasis) Application/ Basic
Sparring; 10 exercises; 10
Application/Sparring: 10 minutes

Cool down: 5 minutes

Depending upon the length of the class,


additional blocks of 5 minutes may be One-step sparring; 15
added or subtracted to make up the
allotted class time.

To support the student’s learning process the warm-up, basics and drills ideally utilize and build upon
movements pulled from the class emphasis (which in the example above was one-step sparring).

19 World Moo Duk Kwan® Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit


Introductory lessons
The introductory course is an orientation to your program. New students are being exposed to the Soo Bahk Do
martial art and your program for the first time. It is extremely important that you make an exciting and
enthusiastic first impression for your Moo Duk Kwan® school. Be aware of when the perspective student will be
arriving and make sure to greet them with a smile. If time allows take them on a tour of your studio and show
them where the restrooms and changing rooms are.

First introductory lesson


The purpose of the first introductory lesson is to get the student in for the second lesson. Make sure the
student enjoys what they are doing and realizes that your program is easy to get started with. A suggestion is
not to make the introductory lesson too long and to keep it simple. One of the most common mistakes is to
make the introductory lessons too hard (for example teaching all Gi Cho Hyung Il Bu, doing split stretches, or
doing 100 punches in a horse stance). How you structure your first introductory lesson should be based on your
school’s normal practices. Your instructor can provide guidance in structuring your lesson plan.

A typical first Introductory may include the following:


1. How to put on your uniform 8. Front stance
2. Salutations 9. Basics from front stance
a. Bowing a. Punch
b. Saluting to flags b. Low block
3. Etiquette c. Middle block
4. How to make a fist d. High block
5. Jhoon Bee 10. Basic kicks
6. Basics from Jhoon Bee a. Front stretch kick
a. Punch b. Inside outside kick
b. Low block c. Front snap kick
c. Middle block 11. Self-defense
d. High block a. Cross wrist grab #1
7. Introduction to basic stretching
At the completion of the first Introductory lesson, give the student a quick summary of what you covered, let
them know what to expect for the second lesson, and schedule or confirm the second lesson time and date. If
time allows, this is also a good opportunity to review things like your student guidelines or student handbook.

Second introductory lesson


At this point the student’s excitement level should be very high. What you do for your second introductory
lesson should again be based on your normal studio practice. During the second introductory lesson you can
review the material covered in the first lesson with the addition of a few more techniques.

At the completion of the second Introductory lesson, give the student a quick summary of what you covered,
let them know what to expect for the next lesson, and schedule or confirm the time and date. If they will be
joining your regular classes at this point, confirm their class schedule times and days. Also confirm when their
next class will be.

20 World Moo Duk Kwan® Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit


Teaching Children
By HC Hwang, Sa Bom Nim, Moo Duk Kwan® Kwan Jang Nim

Introduction
Children's class shouldn't be strict like adult class. Moo Duk Kwan® philosophy of discipline during Soo Bahk Do
training is based on the laws of Nature. We must always have a keen understanding of the laws of Nature.
Children should be accepted as children. It is natural for a child to be treated like one.

General guidelines in teaching children


1. Explanation / Demonstration should be as simple as possible. If an explanation is necessary, try to
limit to only a few areas – 1 or 2 areas would be optimal. It is natural for children to have a short
attention span by nature because children are more action oriented rather than thinking oriented.

2. Useful thinking terms during instruction. Use terms like "front hand" or "back hand" rather than "left
hand" or "right hand". Use terms like "brick wall side" or "mirror side" rather than "left side" or "right
side".

3. Use friendly terms that are familiar to children. Rainbow, Crayon, Choo Choo train etc. It is more
enjoyable for children to apply their imagination into their actions.

4. Count in a faster tempo. As we discussed before, a child's attention span is short and their minds are
very active, therefore they will be disrupted by other things if too much time is spent between counts.

5. Use positive terms. Use positive terms whenever possible and try to avoid negative images such as
“Don't do this", "You shouldn't do that " or "You did it incorrect again."

6. Follow up with your words or any incomplete matters in class. You mentioned to Joe that you would
check on his sidekick during the next class. You must remember to note it and check his sidekick at the
next class.

7. Do not pick on "one" child consistently. Pay equal attention to all children during class. If you see a
child try, even though his/her technique may not meets your expectations, say "Good Joe/Mary ", if
you bring your knee up little higher, it will be even better".

8. Your voice projection and count (Ku Ryong) must be energetic and comes from your "Dan Jun". You
have to be motivated in order to motivate children. Good voice projection, good Ku Ryong, and your
active role is one application to show your motivation.

21 World Moo Duk Kwan® Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit


Teaching Soo Bahk Do techniques to children
1. Gi Cho

o Front stance: Walking on railroad tracks, flashlight on knot of your belt, sit on your front leg,
using lines on the floor, etc.

o Back stance: Small stance, walk little by little, sit on your back leg. etc.

o For example, when teaching "Pal Put Gi", children will be confused if you tell them “fist turns
when punching", "shoulder straight when punching" or "aim to your opponent's solar plexus".
You should explain first, one hand out and one hand in, then if it becomes easier for them,
teach them other ones like "fists turns when punching, then pull.

o Let their active mind help make your instruction easier and more motivational for them.

2. Hyung

o Gi Cho Hyung Il Bu seems to be very challenging when teaching young children. Refer to your
White Belt Instructional Guide and keep reminding them “front hand and back hand concept".

o Note: When you're teaching Hyung by the count, avoid having children stay in one position for
a long period while spending more time with one child. You will lose contact with the students
as a group as well as their motivation.

3. One Step Sparring / Ho Sin Sool

o Will be taught to the intermediate level of children.

4. Free Sparring

o Back fist and reverse punch. Using front hand and back hand concept when teaching this basic
combination.

o Low block and reverse counter punch against front snap kick.

o Front jump-kick and reverse punch (or back fist and reverse punch).

o Back fist and reverse punch and follow with an optional kick.

o Note: It is important for children to learn proper protocol during sparring for their character
development and safety.

5. Punching and kicking exercise with partner (conditioning)

o How to hold a target properly.

22 World Moo Duk Kwan® Jo Kyo Certification Study Kit


6. Terminology

o Use terminology instead of Ki Hap during actual performance by students. For example, with
Pahl Put Gi exercise using "Yong Gi" in two punches, or when exercising kicking with a partner
say "Myung Chi" as students execute a front snap kick to the solar plexus.

7. Discipline

o Discipline is something for children to enjoy through the Moo Duk Kwan® experience of
training in Soo Bahk Do, rather than something you have to do.

o Yong Gi is a mental discipline we are all striving to improve. Explain what Yong Gi means.
Explain what brave energy (courage) means: not hesitating, “Yes, I can” attitude, good body
posture, good Ki Hap, etc.

o Encourage a strong mental and physical attitude (discipline) in their actions with positive
reinforcement.

Objectives in teaching Soo Bahk Do to children under the Moo Duk


Kwan® philosophy
• Enhance self-esteem, build confidence, respect, stimulate creativity.

• Build up a child's positive character utilizing the Moo Duk Kwan® philosophy.

• Develop better physical coordination for future encounters of physical challenges.

• Experiencing a positive atmosphere during dojang activities through examples set by Instructors and
student members.

• Help to become a positive future contributor to our society.
