Sa Jang · 태극 4장

Sa Jang symbolizes 'Jin' (진/雷), the trigram for thunder, meaning great power and dignity. The Kukkiwon teaches that it should be performed with majesty, like a thunderstorm.

Sa Jang is the fourth of the eight Taegeuk forms, the colored-belt curriculum of World Taekwondo. It follows Sam Jang and precedes O Jang.
