LEVEL V (Formal/Closed-Door Student

The 3rd and final part of the forms ( Finishing Techniques) "The Dirty Dozen"

The beauty of these KUENS/Forms/Katas is the fact :
* Every move is a practical,defensive or combative in the same tool(Weapon)or motion . Not a tradition or "Empty" form. Our forms are real- Life, teaching to defend,escape,trap,control and fight and to be able to practice alone.
*Every move teaches applications in 5 directions.
*All techniques are done on both sides in the KUEN,promoting even- sidedness.(Symmetry)
*The KUENS start with the fundamentals,
progressing to the intermediates and then advanced.
So, as a Beginner you only work on the 1st 3rd of the KUEN, BUT,as an advanced you must do all of the form,thus always repeating the Beginner and Intermediate Techniques. This is a very good thing.

So basically the 1st 3rd of the form is the (basics )progressing up to the 2nd part (Chi building ,Breathing and Dynamic Chin na, Intermediates) and finishing with the "Dirty Dozen" (Advanced Techniques).
And of course applications,reverses, and counters must be expertly executed as well as improvising knowledge,peaceful demeanor, and proper attitude,along with Assistant Instructor experience is required to be promoted to 1st Rank.(Where the Fun REALLY begins)!
