il-el jung? Tae Kwon Do?

Question

I am learning tae kwon do from an accredited hall of fame master, but am finding it hard to find information on my second form in the white belt progression.  I find chong-ji everywhere, but not il-el (sp).  It is a turn to left, back stance in-to-out block(ki-yap) ,front stance palm strike, front snap kick, thrust punch, reverse punch; 180 turn and repeat with right hand; 90 degree to left and repeat(ki-yap).  

Any ideas?

Try this link. There are a lot of forms on it. The most important thing is to make sure you are doing it properly, and as it is taught in your school. As an official, I have seen the same form done three times in a row, all done differently. But not wrong. Each school trains forms with varying "translations". So learn yours from your school, and use the web as a refresher.

Best of luck to you.

It doesn't sound like you are doing a tae-guk forms, is your taekwondo ITF style? the form that "|_ |_| ( /-&#92; &#92; /!" has given you is tae-guk il jang or jung. this is a WTF form that is the first form after basic pattern. I can give you links to videos and descriptions of this however i don't think it is what you are looking for.

These are the links to the WTF forms just for your reference, anf if they are what you are looking for, i'm glad i can help. http://www.boisestate.edu/tkd/poomse.html
