When one practices individual techniques or one-steps, one is practicing Bunkai. Notice how singular exercises, such as "right foot back, long front stance with a left hand lower-section block" is the same as in many poomsae. Furthermore, when we pair off and practice blocks and strikes, we are practicing Bunkai. Similiarily, poomsae are Bunkai for Korugi--a confrontation broken and slowed down. If you eat a fruit that is sweet and colorful, but do not know the name, did you not consume it?

But to my knowledge, in karate, bunkai is in addition to step sparring. We do so in kendo in which it is also additional to bunkai. We do taekwondo step sparring at our dojang, but this is not breaking down the individual forms so much as step sparring for specific attack defense scenarios. What I'm thinkin of is the bunkai, or boon hae for each poomse in specific. I do appreciate the response. Daniel

With the work of Mr. Anslow & others in TKD on the topic of boon hae in TKD poomsae, tul, hyung, I see it becoming a larger part of TKD as a whole than it has been in the past. An important item who's time has come. |

On that note, I posted this thread over on Martial Talk and one of the members provided this link to Simon O'Neil's book specifically about boon hae for the taegeuk poomsae. http://www.combat-tkd.com/ Daniel
