Name: Won-Hyo Hyung
Meaning: Won-Hyo is the monk who introduced Buddhism to Korea in 686 AD.
# of Motions: 28
Shape: Capital I

Heres’ a video:

Please note the following differences between the video and how we practice the pattern in class:

*The video refers to L-Stances, we call these back stances.
*Motions #1, #4, #13, & #16, we start this motion from a saucer & tea cup, whereas the video starts the motion from in front of the chest.
*Motions #8, #9, #25, & #26 we have our hands in a saucer & tea cup, the video keeps the hands in guard.
*On the knife hands, we move the hands in a more linear motion close to the chest, the video moves the hands in a more circular motion further from the chest. (This one is more so sloppiness than a difference).
*Motion #12, we perform a groin strike, which is aimed lower than the spear finger used in the video, but otherwise practiced the same way. We also yell on this motion.
*Motions #19 & #22, we do not bend our knees down and then up on, we instead use a regular front stance.
*Motions #27 &#28, we use a regular fighting stance, as opposed to a back stance and block as done in the video.

I also want to point out that in the above video the pattern is performed rather sloppily, though I am posting it anyway since it clearly explains what motions to perform. (Once again, refer to the above paragraph to see the differences between the video and how we practice the pattern).

Here’s a video of the pattern performed from the front and the back (again, it has a few differences between how we practice it at class):

Here’s a diagram of the pattern:
