KFMA VIDEOS FOR TRAINING AT HOME – MAY to AUGUST 2024

We’ve been working on the KFMA life skills of perseverance and self-discipline, and the training videos below will help you to use these skills to practice at home to enhance your in-school training. The following material is designed to prepare for the Rank Testings held in June and August.

Please remember that these videos are designed to enhance your classroom training, as it is necessary to learn the specific techniques first before you practice them at home. This helps to ensure that you are developing the proper muscle memory in loading, chambering and executing your strikes, blocks and kicks.

Start by going slowly through the moves, working on precision and clean technique, then you can work on increasing your speed and power. Details are important in becoming an outstanding martial artist.

SPARRING COMBINATIONS: Once you have learned the combinations, focus on performing them fluidly without losing the integrity of the techniques. Ideally, the speed and fluid motion will be very similar to your actual sparring!

FORMS: Precise stances and high-quality techniques are the first part of developing your form. This includes proper loading of your hand techniques, and foot position and chambering in your kicks. As you progress with your form, it should become more fluid and powerful. Be sure to pay attention to hand-foot timing, as well as keeping your head up to look directly at your ‘target.’ Traditional forms are the true essence of the art of taekwondo and can be performed at all ranks and by all ages.

Please don’t practice material above your rank, as the techniques build upon each other over time.

The material is broken down in the following four separate sections: White Belts; Orange and Yellow Belts; Camo, Green and Purple Belts; and Blue, Brown and Red Belts.

To view these training videos, simply click on the links below and they will open in a separate tab.
