Step-by-Step Description of Movements:
The pattern begins when the instructor commands the student
to come to attention (cha-ryeot). When given this command, assume an Attention Stance on the X on the AB line, facing D. This
is followed by the instructor stating the pattern that the student will perform (Toe-Gye teul).
On the command to assume the ready position (jun-bi), move the left foot to B to form a Close Ready Stance type B toward D. Remain in this close ready stance
type B toward D until given the command to begin the pattern.
