WHITE BELT Study Guide

White Belt Form: Chun Ji

Meaning of Chun Ji: The form means Heaven and Earth, the low blocks in the form represent “Earth” (dirt); the inner forearm blocks represent Heaven (sky). Literal translation is Dirt and Sky.

Number of Combinations: 16

The Color White represents purity and innocence, no knowledge of TaeKwonDo. Like a seed just planted

Five Tenets of TAEKWONDO:

  • Courtesy (nice)
  • Integrity (honest)
  • Perseverance (never give up)
  • Self Control (mind over body)
  • Indomitable Spirit (the feeling of knowing you can accomplish anything)

TaeKwonDo is the “Way of Hand and Foot." It is also known as the art of kicking and punching.
