If you are seeking a unique ki/gi
training method or are new to the concepts of internal energy, GiCheon will open
your eyes to the possibilities within you
HeoGong
(form of crouched tiger on the ground) or "BokKoSe" is a pose that
resembles a crouched tiger on the ground ready to jump or bound to the opponent.
It’s very useful for counterattacking the opponent. HeoGong is the most
difficult position for beginners, who usually cannot hold it for more than a few
seconds. It requires great flexibility and power of the waist, and also the most
fully stretched leg.
How to pose
One turns the left foot outward to a 90 degree angle.
Advance the right foot four or more steps.
Bend the left knee to a 90 degree angle, with the right
heel angled outward to 90 degrees.
The right ankle should be flexed inward with the right
tiptoes lifted and stretched inward.
The right knee should be flexed backward while the left
back is arched and left buttock pushed out.
Perform HaBahnJang.
The feet are firm against the floor with power focused at the toetip
The Benefits
HeoGong
is a unique pose which can be found, maybe, only in GiCheon, training the
inner-muscles of the thigh. It can help diet on the legs and build slim and
strong legs. It also
helps the Gi circulate throughout the arms and legs by expanding and stretching
the waist and legs to the utmost degree, and then intensifies the stomach and
spleen Gi channels. It also intensifies the internal force with the Gi well
circulated located inside the legs.
