Tae-guks/Poomses

Heavy training in Taekwondo for my sister today. She is about to be graded for her red belt and has to practice the Tae-guks. Number four and five are very very hard, with back stances, open hand blocks and chops and a fierce neck grab and elbow punch. You have to keep practicing the earlier poomses as well - because when grading you're expected to perform all of them. I know one to three well, but was actually just starting to learn the 4:th and it is HARD! The trick is to never give up and perform them every day to get it as fluent, easy-looking and perfect as possible.
I'm impressed with my sister and I'm going to perform the tae-guks every day until I master them for my next grading!
