Choonbi Position
Sa Jang is a series of actions applying the principle of "Jin". Jin symbolizes 'Thunder' (noise without substance), and is expressed as bravery and steadfastness. Thunder and lightning are objects of fear and trembling. This principle suggests that we should act calmly and bravely even in the face of danger and fear.
Because tae kwon do is comprised exclusively of virtuous actions, these patterns express fear and trembling in the only way that virtue allows -- stoically, as a passing thunderstorm which nourishes the soul. Virtue, therefore, defines fear as courage.
This form, as a consequence, contains many postures that display composure and strong balance such as blocks in combination with strikes, and front kicks that require the performer to kick with force but immediately recover into a back stance.
