Grandmaster Kim's Notes for May 2008
You must practice Taekwon-Do with passion. You must think about it, meditate on the techniques and applications in your head
and then practice and perform with passion.
Spend 30 minutes a day meditating on one technique against a faceless opponent.
Do it over and over again in your mind so when the opponent comes in real life you have a much better chance to effectively
execute your technique.
When you are in class, imagine the opponent and the application of the technique when you practice. You must practice with
thoughts and intention and not just for the mechanics of exercise.
Your body has no muscle memory. Your arms and legs cannot kick and punch and execute on their own. It is all in the mind. Muscle
memory, reflex and timing and execution are all in the mind.
Practice your Taekwon-Do with passion and diligence.
