Dan-Gun – Inside the Premium Pattern Lesson

Dan-Gun – Inside the Premium Pattern Lesson

This premium Dan-Gun lesson is designed to help students and instructors see what actually changes as skill improves. The full premium video features a side-by-side analysis between a yellow belt student and a world champion performing the same pattern.

Watching both performances together makes differences in balance, posture, timing, and overall movement quality far easier to recognise than when viewing a single performance on its own.

Dan-Gun is the second ITF Taekwon-Do pattern and builds directly on the fundamentals introduced in Chon-Ji. This lesson shows how those basics are either reinforced or exposed as patterns become more demanding.

Dan-Gun is required for 8th gup students, but the comparisons in this lesson are just as valuable for higher grades who want to better understand where control, awareness, and consistency begin to separate as skill level increases.

Rather than explaining Dan-Gun in isolation, the premium lesson uses direct comparison to highlight what improves with experience – particularly how the body settles into each stance, how direction changes are managed, and how movement quality evolves.

Used together, the premium lesson and the Patterns Hub give students and instructors a clearer picture of how early fundamentals carry forward as patterns increase in complexity.
