Philosophy
"Coming to the mountain. The tree is in the mid-growth and now the path becomes steep."
The student has crossed over over into a higher level of Songahm Taekwondo.
The techniques, poom-sae (forms), and level of gyeo-roo-gi (sparring) becomes more difficult, creating a "mountain" that must be overcome.
Message
The path to glory is rough. Sometimes it is hard to continue, but have faith in your instructor.
(Master Mal Kum Lee - Instruction Vice President, 8th Degree Black Belt)
