if you don't mind I just want to mention that you're mixing WTF and ITF curriculum, I don't know if that's your intention.. hyunhu hyung (or any "hyung") isn't part of ITF. for the yellow stripe students must learn saju maki (four direction block) and saju chirugi (four direction punch) Also there's no front stance in ITF, that's a walking stance (gunnun sogi) WTF has a front stance (ap sogi) which is a very short stance with straight knees.
I don’t mind at all ! I love more information. Although I’m aware of gunnun sogi, we have always called it ap sogi or front stance . Same with back or L-stance . As far as hyung , it’s something left over from our old curriculum that was used to substitute for the four directional punch and block . If I’m not mistaken there is also a four directional elbow thrust that is taught too. I guess it’s just something unique to our curriculum . We don’t identify as an ITF school. Though we do teach a version of the Chang Hon forms . I’m sure you can see the difference between our forms and the ones you do. Thank you so much for your comment though!
