품새 Taekwondo poomsae · Yudanja · 7th black-belt form

Chonkwon · 천권

Chonkwon (천권) means 'sky', the ruler of the universe, mysterious, infinite and profound; it signifies the energy that nurtures all things and its immutable laws. The motions are full of piety, vitality and reverence, like a man watching an eagle soar into the clouds.

Chonkwon is the seventh of the nine Yudanja forms, the black-belt curriculum of World Taekwondo. It follows Jitae and precedes Hansu.
