One-steps by Belt Rank
Onesteps (also known as 1-step sparring) are pre-arranged partner drills, designed to develop razor-sharp defensive reaction skills as well as develop one’s spatial awareness, distancing, and hand/foot — eye coordination. Onesteps, practiced for years, become second nature. When confronted, a Taekwondo Black Belt will automatically react using his onesteps.
