CHON-JI

Chon-Ji is the first pattern practiced by the beginner. It means literally the “heaven and earth” and is interpreted as the creation of the world or the beginning of Korean history.  The pattern consists of two similar parts, one to represent the heaven and the other the earth. It has 19 movements in all.
