Chapter one to eight of Taiji is the basic routine (quality) of Taekwondo, and it is a routine that must be practiced before the black belt is promoted. In fact, these eight routines are not difficult. If you have a little martial arts foundation, you can learn it all in a few days.

Taekwondo routines are based on the first to eighth chapters of Taiji, followed by Koryo, King Kong, Taibai, Pingyuan, Jin Shi, Taekwondo, Tianquan, Hanshui and Yiru. The routine movements of Taekwondo are close to those of karate or northern China Waiquan (such as Shaolin Boxing), which is characterized by long bridge and hard horse, powerful movements and wide opening and closing. The rhythm and force of each movement are very clear, so it is easier to learn; Also, because Taekwondo attaches importance to the leg technique, the leg technique has a high proportion in the routine.
