CF'er do you make up your own outside of the school and adapt them to your abilities or just use what they have given you.

Thank you, we start to make up our at red belt which is advance belts we teach a total of eight one steps and 15 two and three steps, all the rest are made up.
TKDmel
Blue Belt
We begin to teach them at the white belt level and continue through red belt with the corresponding techniques. At advanced red, we start teaching students to begin to think about their own techniques so that as a BB they can make their own.
WMKS Shogun
Green Belt
The founder of our system changed our one steps into combinations. Basically, they are one person one, two, and three steps. We start teaching them at white belt, and at various times, we have them practice them with a partner to work distance.
3 step sparring without a partner: for 9th gup
3 step sparring with a partner: for 8th gup. At this rank, 3 step is rigidly codified, with the attacker performing 3 middle punches moving forward and the defender performing 3 middle inner forearm blocks moving back and a reverse punch as a counter; the entire exercise is in walking stance
3 step sparring with a parter: for 7th gup. At this rank, students begin creating their own 3 step routines (with the attacker repeating the attack 3 times, the defender repeating the defense 3 times and then counter-attacking); all stances and techniques known by the student may be used
2 way 3 step sparring: for 6th gup. This variation, created by our GM, has students repeating the exercise in reverse - so it begins as above in 3 step with a partner, and then the attacker performs 3 middle punches moving backward and the defender performs 3 middle inner forearm blocks moving forward; students may modify 2 way 3 step the same way they modify 3 step, but must be able to demonstrate the basic sequence
From this point on, all step sparring is student created, except that students must be able to perform the set 3 step exercises as given above
2 step: for 5th and 4th gup
1 step: for 3rd and 2nd gup
Model 1 step: for 1st gup. Model 1 step closely resembles 1 step, with the set being performed a second time immediately after the first, but in slow motion, with an emphasis on focus and technical proficiency.
All levels of step sparring up to the requirement for that rank can (and usually are) asked to be demonstrated at testing.
3 step sparring with a partner: for 8th gup. At this rank, 3 step is rigidly codified, with the attacker performing 3 middle punches moving forward and the defender performing 3 middle inner forearm blocks moving back and a reverse punch as a counter; the entire exercise is in walking stance

Sounds like a nice routine Kacey
Thanks. :asian:
We start 3 steps at white belt level, 1 steps at yellow belt, and 2 steps are rarely used.
Up until about red belt level students are encouraged to use only techniques found in their forms. Red belts and higher are given more leeway.
I think the key to use 3,2, or 1 steps in training is to require the students to use a broken rhythm. If the attacker uses slow robotic motions no one learns anything in the drill. The attacker must try to "trip up" the defender by being unpredictable.

We only do 1-step, no 2 or 3 step. There are no required sets, only required techniques to be included (e.g., 6th gup and higher must have takedowns for all 1-step). Each instructor will have their favorites, and you can often tell who someone learned from in our organization by their one-step. Around 4th/3rd gup creativity is encouraged at the student level.
