Tae Geuk Yook Jahng --
Water
This form symbolizes water which is liquid and formless yet never loses its nature, though it may conform to the vessel in
which it finds itself. Water always flows downward and in time, can wear away the hardest granite. With this principle we learn
that we can overcome every difficulty if we go forward with self-confidence, easy to bend, but not to break. Like water, this
form is flowing and gentle yet destructive. It teaches that man, when faced with a challenge, can overcome it by persistence
and unwavering belief. To give this form the appearance of continuity, its seperate sequences of motion are connected to the front
kick.
