Patterns/ Poomse
A Poomse (Form) is a pattern of pre-arranged Taekwondo moves, consisting of blocks, strikes and kicks.
While performing a Poomse, the Taekwondo practitioner uses his/her techniques to fight off imaginary opponents, attacking from multiple directions.
The Eastern Region Tae Kwon Assocoation teaches the Palqwe series of patterns.
PDF's of each pattern can be downloaded from here.
