To review all 24 (Chon-Ji to Tong-Il) patterns and make the members, particularly the senior grades, ready for the upcoming promotion test, Mr. Najmuddin Safi -VI Degree AFG-6-1000- Founder of Afghan Taekwon-Do Association, commenced the first ever online class for ATA members in Afghanistan through Zoom on July 11, 2025. During the first session, which was scheduled for one hour, three patterns (Chon-Ji, Dan-Gun and Do-San) were reviewed. Each pattern was practiced three to four times with explanations on how to generate the maximum power through proper reaction force, concentration, relaxation (sine-wave), breath control, acceleration (speed), balance (equilibrium), and utilization of the body weight/hip rotation (mass). The emphasize was strongly made on the correct performance of each single move along with the respective stance.
Though the connection was not good and the class was interrupted several times, due to internet problems, the participants enjoyed the training and suggestion was made to conduct the class every Friday afternoon. Mr. Safiullah Safi, President, and Mr. Faisal Gran, Vice President of ATA will work closely with ATA members in other provinces, particularly Kabul to join the online classes as soon as possible.
