We will teach our students with the same high standards that
we ourselves were taught with. The martial art style that we will be teaching is Han
Mu Do. Han Mu Do is a traditional Korean martial art that was founded by Dr. He-Young Kimm in 1989. Dr. Kimm created
Han Mu Do after more than forty years of accumulating knowledge and training in the Korean martial arts systems.
A true martial arts scholar, he sought to integrate the techniques and philosophies of these styles into a single comprehensive
balanced system. For a detailed history of Han Mu Do, please visit the World Han Mu Do Association website at http://www.hanmudo.com
