Form/Rank/Belt

The 24 forms represent the 24 hours of the day. The name of the pattern, the number of movements, and the shape of each pattern has symbolic meaning to Korean history.

You will need to know and perform your current form to pass your test. You should master your present form before learning the next one. It is expected that you know all the forms below your rank as well. You will need to show mastery of the first 9 forms (Chon-Ji through Chung-Mu) for your Black Belt test.
