General exercise

You will perform various types of general exercises, such as push-ups, sit-ups, leg lifts, etc., to develop strength, flexibility, and conditioning.

Stretching

You will stretch at the start of training classes to warm up and loosen ligaments, muscles, and joints. At the end of class, while your body is warm and loose, you will perform serious stretches to increase your flexibility.

Floor drills

Floor drills are moves or techniques done while moving up and down the dojang floor. The instructor "calls out" the moves and the class immediately performs them. Floor drills help develop technical preciseness in techniques and build strength and stamina. Floor drills help to develop discipline, since students must remain focused to respond to given commands correctly.

Target drills

Target drills are techniques performed against a hand target held by a partner. They permit students to practice full-power techniques against a moving target.

Wall drills

Wall drills are techniques performed while moving down the length of a dojang wall or while standing still and using the wall as a support. The wall is used for balance while learning new kicking techniques. Students concentrate on achieving perfection of technique.

Bag drills

Bag drills are techniques performed against a heavy bag, either a Wave master or a hanging bag. They permit full-power techniques to be tested against a solid object.
