Poomsae an art

I have just realised that i didn't talk much about Poomsae in the blog ha and perhaps i should just write a little how i feel about it. Poomsae also known as pattern is the set of movements practioners will execute and it comprises of basic movements such as blocks, hand strikes and kicks. To me poomsae is like an art, it got to be done with the required force and most importantly gracefully then the poomsae will look nice. Poomsae is required in grading and only in recent years, they have poomsae competitions. In the past, competitions only involved sparring. World Taekwondo Poomsae competitions was only held recently and is not competed in any major games.
