I first learned of Tiger Meditation many years ago from my instructor, GM Dong, Seung Gyoo of Richmond, VA. > > In Tiger Meditation, the practioner lays on their back with their hands held up above their shoulders with their palms to the ceiling (similar to doing a bench pressing movement). The knees are held directly above the hips with the feet at a 90 degree angle to the thighs. --__--__-- Message: 4 From: "FRANK CLAY" To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2006 20:36:13 -0600 Subject: [The_Dojang] Mstr Baeder Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Patrick, What AMster Dong taught was a modified version of Pal Dan Kum. This is in fact a version of the Eight Pieces of Brocade which has both a seated/laying component and a standing component. Contact me privately and IU'll do what I can to help. Have you spoken to Master Lim?

The WTF/Kukkiwon has been very interested in promoting poomsae as of late, so this is highly likely to be a very hot area within Kukki-TKD RSN (real soon now). More info as I get it...
