인체 구조와 기능에 근거한 태권도 기술의 체계화 방안

Abstract

In this study, an integrated scheme for all Taekwondo techniques was established based on the structure and function of the human body. A total of 355 techniques which had been classified into three categories by the Kukiwon - stance, defense and attack techniques - were newly classified by this new scheme. Based on the structure of the human body, the top-level classification was divided into four categories: arm, torso, leg, and moving techniques. Techniques belonging to each category were further subdivided according to the functions of the human body. Arm techniques (hand techniques) were classified into five basic types of motion: extension, extension with a twist, circumduction with a twist, circumduction, horizontal rotation, and five others - elbow striking, grasping, throwing down, pulling out, and complex motions. Leg techniques (foot techniques) were classified into four basic types of motion: extension, extension with a twist, flexion, circumduction and two others – knee striking and complex motions. Body techniques were classified into five basic types of motion: lowering, twisting, side bending (bobbing), flexing and extending (weaving), and circumduction. Moving techniques (footwork) were classified into five basic types of motion: stance, walking, jumping, turning, and jumping turn.
