Chung Moo Doe ………… 6

® One of many personal achievements of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim is the Kyung Gong Sul Bope (flying side kick). Pictured above, Grandmaster jumps from the top of a building – a corner of the roof is visible in the photo. Not all martial arts movements are the same. Kyung Gong Sul Bope is different than a jump side kick. One can see the strength in the hands, feet, neck – the entire body. Once achieved, this strength sustains one’s mental and physical health and well-being. Once achieved, this strength benefits one’s daily life, family, and friends. Each photo of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim shows tremendous internal strength and willpower. Each photo is also a guide and a challenge for students. When students correctly execute a movement, they take a step closer to reaching their goals. Grandmaster “Iron” Kim has said, “the photographs are not for my benefit. They are for your benefit to develop yourself. Through correct movement, you can improve your mental and physical strength. Once people have reached mental and physical improvement, no one can take that away from them.” Over the centuries, few have reached the level of knowledge of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim. Knowledge is important, but most important are the great number of people around the world that have benefited from Oom Yung Doe practice. We would like to recognize and thank Grandmaster “Iron” Kim for bringing the Oom Yung line of traditional martial arts to the U.S. and sharing his knowledge for the benefit of instructors and students around the country. 2 MISSION As Instructors, it is our mission to accept the challenge and responsibility to teach the traditional line of Moo Doe (Martial Arts) knowledge as it has been taught over the centuries. It is our hope to apply the morals of Chung Doe (Right Path) to our lives and to follow the principles of honor, integrity, loyalty and compassion above all else. It is also our hope to remain open and willing to learn, and through good communication, help continue this tradition of knowledge for others to follow.

Grandmaster “Iron” Kim 5 INTRODUCTION What follows is a brief history and a very basic explanation of the meaning, the benefits, and the forms and movements that comprise Traditional Moo Doe (Martial Arts), as it has been taught and passed down over the centuries. True Moo Doe is rare, and finding someone who knows, understands and can explain true Moo Doe is equally rare. There are very few individuals today who hold correct and complete knowledge of Moo Doe. Herein contains the true definition of Moo Doe as explained by Grandmaster "Iron" Kim, one of those few individuals who genuinely understand Moo Doe knowledge. Many have claimed to know Moo Doe, but the proof is not in just what is said, but in the strength of the movement. Anyone who has seen Grandmaster "Iron" Kim demonstrate Moo Doe movement can, perhaps, begin to understand what true strength is. Over the centuries, many generations of individuals have dedicated their entire lives to developing and teaching Moo Doe. In an age of passing interests, very few have this level of dedication and determination. The basic principles of compassion, strength, dedication, determination, patience and understanding are the heart of Moo Doe. Those who have practiced and gained from this an- cient line of knowledge truly know. In the next few pages, one will find a history of the Moo Doe line of knowledge in the United States. Although this line of knowledge has been taught under different names, it can be recognized by the strength of the movement. Next, is a biographical account of some of the milestones in the remarkable life of Grandmaster "Iron" Kim, dedicating his life to teaching the benefits of true Moo Doe to every individual willing to try and open to learning. 6 HISTORY THE HISTORY OF TRUE MOO DOE GRANDMASTERS Many believe that the practice of true Moo Doe (Martial Arts) is the best way to achieve tremendous mental, physical and spiritual strength and well-being. This is one of the main reasons that the practice of Moo Doe has been held in such high esteem in East Asia throughout the centuries. Today, around the world, only a few dedicated people have reached the level of a true Grandmaster. These individuals are unique and incomparable in their Moo Doe abilities. They are extremely selective about where, and to whom, they pass on their knowledge. True Moo Doe practitioners meticulously follow prop- er Moo Doe training steps which result in miraculous long-term mental, physical, and spiritual strength. Throughout the centuries, true Moo Doe Grandmas- ters have upgraded the Moo Doe training steps to ac- commodate the different needs of their generations. These upgrades are necessary to maintain the miraculous mental, physical, and spiritual strengths achieved by prior generations. In this century, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim upgraded the training steps, taking into consideration such things as current living conditions, modern technology, the constant attack by toxic environmental forces, and stress on the mind and body. True Grandmasters never change true Moo Doe principles (Chung Doe, correct path) for any reason. If these principles are altered, the practitioner is not practicing true Moo Doe, and will not achieve Moo Doe benefits. Rather, the practice devolves into basic exercise with minimal health benefits – an ineffective use of time. As a practitioner ages, the differences between true Moo Doe and improper training become even more obvious. Many higher-level practitioners, who have researched the Oom Yung (Chung Moo) style for more than a quar- ter century, believe in the legends of the origin of the Oom Yung (Chung Moo) line of Masters and Grandmas- ters. Through this research, more details regarding the history of traditional Moo Doe knowledge and Grandmaster “Iron” Kim will be released through lessons and written materials. 7 HISTORY HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL OF OOM YUNG DOE (CHUNG MOO DOE) Because of the long history of Moo Doe, there are many different beliefs and legends associated with its origins. For example, there are different movements and different legends associated with the word or name “Bagwa.” Some say it is a person’s name; some say it is a style of martial arts; and some say it is a figure or pattern of movement. Some people say that the Bagwa style originated about 200 to 400 years ago. Others say that it dates back several thousand years. The Oom Yung / Chung Moo style follows the legend that Bagwa was a person’s name, and that he was the founder of the Oom Yung / Chung Moo line of martial arts about 1500 to 2000 years ago. The Oom Yung Doe / Chung Moo Doe style of Moo Doe is taught in the United States and throughout the world today by its founder, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim. It encompasses all the form and movement of the Oom Yung Doe line of Moo Doe, taught over the centuries, since the time of the first generation Grandmaster “Bagwa.” The seventh generation Grandmaster Wang Po taught the Oom Yung line of martial arts under the given name of Yin Yang Doe. Other styles of East Asian Moo Doe have been incorporated into the original Oom Yung / Chung Moo line. Today, about twenty percent of the Oom Yung Doe / Chung Moo Doe style is derived from other styles of East Asian Martial Arts and has come to be known as “Eight Martial Arts taught as One,” or “All Martial Arts United.” Throughout history, the given names of the different styles of martial arts have changed, and the form and movement have been refined. It is also common for each Grandmaster to select a unique name (given name) to distinguish that generation of form and movement from the previous. In the early 1970s, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim brought the Oom Yung Doe / Chung Moo Doe line of martial arts to the United States from East Asia. 8 GRANDMASTER "IRON" KIM THE 8TH GENERATION GRANDMASTER OF THE OOM YUNG/CHUNG MOO LINE OF MARTIAL ARTS The origins of a line of martial arts are based on the movement, strength and credibility of the individual master, his instructors and his students. The strength of the movement determines how strong the style is and the credibility of that generation of individuals.
