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 (Gwang-Gae teul).
On the command to assume the ready position (jun-bi), move the left foot to B to form a Parallel Stance with a Heaven Hand toward D. Remain in this parallel stance with a heaven hand toward D until given the command
to begin the pattern.
