Practice five times a week tigers for about 5-10 minutes and kids & adults for least 10-15 min. Record
the date in the boxes marked 1-5 for each day you practice. Once you complete the 8-week testing
cycle, you will have practiced 40 times! Kids, get your parents to initial at the end of each week. If
you complete the entire grid, you will earn a place on the Black Belt Honor Roll!
When practicing, remember the rule of three. Perform the activity three times or in sets of three. For
example, practice a kick in three sets of ten repetitions or practice the form three times: first by count,
then by naming each move, and finally by segment breakdown.

Philosophy

Interpretation

Pure and without Knowledge of Songahm Taekwondo. As with the pine tree, the seed must now
be planted and nourished to develop strong
roots.

The student has no knowledge of Songahm

Taekwondo and begins with a clean, pure slate.
