I guess it depends on where to take your exam. The current 4th dan hosinsul exam requirement in The Netherlands is now 8 unarmed, 8 against short stick (<50cm) and 8 against knife.

@@MichaelWRosa good day Master Michael Rosa it's the same requirements for 5 Dan also ? Kind regards

@@The1alirafiee No, for 5th dan here in The Netherlands you display 4 high ranked forms, give a 20 minute demonstration which includes a little bit of everything but most of all your own strengths and must include 5 break tests. Also a taekwondo resume and paper needs to be handed in.

@@MichaelWRosa Master Michael Rosa thank you for your answer

Age is just a number and practicing Martial Art always keeps you young :)

I was 36 at the time. But flexibility is not a requirement. Even at 50+ you can still get the most out of what you can do and use that. A good kick to the groin is better then a light tap in the face ;-)

Gary Ormond yes, I did. Currently training towards 5th dan. This is such a long time ago, things like the forms have changed a lot over these years. Good luck on your journey to your second dan. Let me know how it went. P.S. my third and forth dan exams are also on this channel.

We shall see, IF I get there.

Hi. Yes close similarly. That is the self defence part .

ahbab ali Just do your best and do it with confidence. Good luck. Tae Kwon!

Thanks a lot man

ahbab ali did you pass?

@@MichaelWRosamines in 3 days too 😭 but i do karate

+Poomsae Warrior Keep training. Martial arts start at Black belt, then the real fun starts :-)

@@MichaelWRosa what changes after you become black belt?

@@callmecharlottex black belt is like finishing school and graduating to highschool. As a 1st degree black belt you know the basics. After that you learn more, train your body more until you graduate from highschool and go to martial arts collage to get your masters degree.

@@MichaelWRosa you learn more advanced self defence moves at black belt degree levels?

@@callmecharlottex more advanced everything. Better body conditioning. Self defense moves are all in the forms. Learn them wel and you will learn some self defence. More specific self defense is hosinsul, which is an other martial art. Some taekwondo school also teach some parts of hosinsul, others teach a lot and some not at all. Af for testing for black belts 1-5 here you need to show some form of defensive techniques. Unarmed against grabs 1st, stick 2nd, knive 3rd, mixed 5th and free choice 5th. With higher black belts come more advanced poomsae with more advanced techniques which have more self defence moves. A good exercise is to try and find various Sef defence moves in the forms you know. That way you know what you are doing and not just coping a movent. That's also part of being a black belt. Not just your skills, but your knowledge.

+MaharlikaAWA In the Netherlands this is a mandatory part of the 4th Dan test choki taeryon, one step sparring with only leg techniques.
