### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A Must-Have Resource
  

*by J***I on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2012*

I can't say enough goood things about this book or the other two volumes in the set. Like all of Stuart Anslow's work, I have been recommending it to others and have been giving it away as gifts to friends.Yes, there are other resources on the Internet that list the sequence of techniques for any given pattern and show some pictures but, in my opinion, this book offers the most complete explanations. Anslow provides both the English and Korean names, a picture of each technique, foot diagrams, textual explaination of what needs to be done as well as special notes about differences between the ITF, WTF, and other organizations.The foot diagrams are especially noteworthy as they clearly show you what the stances should be at the start and at the end of any given move. That alone makes this a superior instructional resources. The movements between stances is well documented and at the bottom of each page is a series of photographs that illustrate how you should look as the move is being executed. At the end of the discussion for each pattern is a series of tips on how to learn and execute the pattern which really are helpful.The introductory chapters on the history of Taekwon-do, how techniques differ between Taekwon-do organizations, and Standards for Pattern Performnace should not be skipped. Likelwise, the appendices provide useful information, such as on pattern speeds and sine wave movement.This book greatly helped improve my performance with patterns.

    A great addition to any ITF Taekwondo library!

Anslow has put in the work in developing this series of books. He’s done a great job in presenting a practical interpretation of TKD patterns, so that any practitioner can follow along. I own several of Stuart’s Instructional books - all well worth the money and the time!Eddie Minyard, 9th Dan

    This book is very easy to read!
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 19, 2018*

I have to be honest. I didn't have very high hopes for this book. You could probably tell I've been burned before. This book was very different from the others though. It was very informational and easy to understand. As a blackbelt in TKD, this is a must have if you have been out of the game for any length of time. I was able to pick it up and feel after a week as though I never left. Very well put together pictures and diagrams of foot position and proper hand techniques. Would recommend this to anyone, new or experienced.
