Hansu Poomsae

By Sir Nathaniel 3X Rhine

 
The word "Hansu" means water which is the source of substance preserving the life and growing all the creatures. Hansu symbolizes birth of a life and growth, strength & weakness, magnanimity & harmony, and adaptability.

"Han" has various meanings, namely, the name of a country, numerousness, largeness, evenness, length, the heaven and the root of evening, among others. Above all, the above significances, is the background of organizing this poomsae.


The new techniques introduced in this poomsae are:
son-nal-deung-momtong-hecho-makki
me-jumeok-yang-yopkuri[both flanks]-chigi
kodureo-khaljaebi
an-palmok-arae-pyojeok-makki
son-nal-keumgang-makki
and modum-bal as a stance.

Actions should be practiced softly like water but continuously like a drop of water gathering to make an ocean.

The Poomsae line symbolizes the Chinese letter that means water.

This is the first official Sixth Dan Black Belt (pattern) Poomsae of the World Taekwondo Federation.

There are 27 movements in this Poomsae.
