(Reporter Kim Min-jeong)= The World Subak Federation (WSF) has published a new open educational resource (OER) introducing “Jeolguzil,” a traditional Korean breathing and lower-body coordination training method preserved within the Subak tradition of Korean physical culture.
The educational material was published through international open-access platforms including OER Commons and Zenodo as part of ongoing efforts to digitally preserve and internationally share Korean traditional movement culture.
The resource introduces Jeolguzil as a form of coordinated movement education integrating:
- diaphragmatic breathing
- lower-body stabilization
- pelvic-centered force generation
- rhythmic repetition
- posture coordination
According to the World Subak Federation, the training method is not presented merely as a martial practice, but also as a community-based educational system related to breathing awareness, movement coordination, concentration training, and traditional body culture.
The published toolkit includes:
- instructional movement images
- breathing explanations
- educational objectives
- movement structure analysis
- digital learning references
The project also connects with broader discussions concerning:
- embodied learning
- traditional physical culture
- open educational resources (OER)
- community-based movement education
- TVET-related educational frameworks
WSF stated that future projects may include additional educational resources concerning traditional Korean movement systems, breathing methods, coordinated body mechanics, and historical martial body culture documentation.
The Jeolguzil educational resource is currently available through international open-access educational and research platforms.
