Item 3B. LBR-2017-18-003 Hwa Rang Kwan.Pdf
CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO EDWIN M. LEE, MAYOR OFFICE OF SMALL BUSINESS REGINA DICK-ENDRIZZI, DIRECTOR Legacy Business Registry Staff Report HEARING DATE NOVEMBER 13, 2017 HWA RANG KWAN MARTIAL ARTS CENTER Application No.: LBR-2017-18-003 Business Name: Hwa Rang Kwan Martial Arts Center Business Address: 90 Welsh Street District: District 6 Applicant: Master Steve Rapport, Owner Nomination Date: July 5, 2017 Nominated By: Supervisor Jane Kim Staff Contact: Richard Kurylo [email protected] BUSINESS DESCRIPTION Hwa Rang Kwan Martial Arts Center (Hwa Rang Kwan), founded in 1973, is a local martial arts center serving both youth and adults alike and is believed to be the oldest Korean martial arts center on the West Coast. The origins of Hwa Rang Kwan can be traced back to the Korean United Methodist Church (constructed in 1928), the first Korean Church to be constructed in the United States by and for Koreans. In 1969, Pastor Song offered the name “Hwa Rang Kwan” to a Korean Youth Group at 712 Polk Street that was run by the former Korean Association President Min Hee Rhee, father of Taekwondo legends and actors Masters Phillip and Simon Rhee. During this same time, a man by the name of Master Dong Kie Shin opened a Hwa Rang Kwan dojang (martial arts’ school) in the Miadong district of Seoul, Korea. In 1971, Master Shin moved to San Francisco and continued his training at the Polk Street school and in 1973, he opened a Hwa Rang Kwan of his own, the Hwa Rang Kwan Martial Arts Center, on Fillmore Street. -

THE HISTORY of TAEKWONDO by Glen R
THE HISTORY OF TAEKWONDO By Glen R. Morris A Report for Recommendation Black Belt Testing 1994 Before I get into the history of Taekwondo, I would like to define what it means. I read the definition from many books and the one that I like best comes from the book Comprehensive Asian Fighting Arts (1) written by Donn F. Draeger and Robert W. Smith. "Taekwondo is an empty-hand combat form that entails the use of the whole body. Tae means "to Kick" or "Smash with the feet," Kwon implies "punching" or "destroying with the hand or fist," and Do means "way" or "method." Taekwondo thus, is the technique of unarmed combat for self defense that involves the skillful application of techniques that include punching, jumping kicks, blocks, dodges, parrying actions with hands and feet. It is more than a mere physical fighting skill, representing as it does a way of thinking and a pattern of life requiring strict discipline. It is a system of training both the mind and the body in which great emphasis is placed on the development of the trainee's moral character." Taekwondo is a martial art that in "todays" form of self defense has evolved by combining many different styles of martial arts that existed in Korea over the last 2,000 years and some martial arts styles from countries that surround Korea. Taekwondo incorporates the abrupt linear movements of Karate and the flowing, circular patterns of Kung-fu with native kicking techniques. Over fifty typically Chinese circular hand movements can be identified in modern Taekwondo.(1) A few of the earlier martial arts styles that contributed to Taekwondo are: T'ang-su, Taek Kyon, also known as Subak, Tae Kwon, Kwonpup and Tae Kwonpup. -
Kwan's Name: “Bluewaves” Meaning a Youngster's Spirit and Vitality
The Development of the “Kwan’s” Kwan: in Korean literally means building or hall, but when used in martial arts it can also refer to a school or clan of martial artists who follow the same style and/or leader. At the time, there were 9 major Kwans throughout Korea and once someone joined a particular Kwan, it was very difficult to transfer to another Kwan. When someone wanted to transfer to another Kwan, his original Kwan Jang had to authorize and approve the transfer, but in reality, the Kwan Jang usually threatened the member using authoritative means in an effort to persuade the potential transferee to not leave. This was a critical issue in those days. Chung Do Kwan Established by Won Kuk Lee, seated in the middle and next led by Duk Sung Son, the back row, second from the right. After the independence of Korea, the Chung Do Kwan, one of the five key Dojangs, was founded first. It symbolized Chung Do Kwan's name: “Bluewaves” meaning a youngster's spirit and vitality. Chung Do Kwan's founder, LEE Won Kuk, moved to Japan when he was 19 years old in 1926. While in Japan, he first attended middle and high school, and then entered the Law School of Chuo University. Then he entered Japan's Karate headquarters, the Song Do Kwan (Shotokan). He received Karate instruction from Karate's father, Gichin Funakoshi. There, he learned Karate with Song Moo Kwan's founder, RO Byung Jick. Later, he moved back to Korea and taught Tang Soo Do in the Yong Shin school hall in Suh Dae Moon Gu's Ochun Dong, Seoul because he had a good relationship with Japan's Cho-sun Governor General Abe in 1944. -

Independent Tang Soo Do Association YU GUP JA TRAINING MANUAL © Copyright South Hills Karate Academy (Gene Garbowsky) No part of this document may be reproduced, copied or distributed without express permission from Master Gene Garbowsky Published May, 2013 A Message from Sa Bom Nim Gene Garbowsky, Kwan Jang Nim, Independent Tang Soo Do Association As a member of the Independent Tang Soo Do Association, I hope that you will come to re- alize the benefits of training in Tang Soo Do. As you may know, I have been teaching this Martial Art to hundreds of students over the past 30 years. I truly believe that every man, women, and child can benefit in many ways from practicing Martial Arts and Tang Soo Do. What are Martial Arts? It is the name given to the traditional systems of self-defense that have been practiced in Eastern and Western societies for thousands of years. Masters of the ancient Martial Arts ultimately discovered that mastery of the body comes through mas- tery of the mind. Therefore, the practice of Martial Arts is a way to a more fulfilling life. It is a path to freedom from self-confinement and the ultimate goal to mental and physical har- mony. Martial Arts training can absolutely change a person physically, psychologically, and emo- tionally in a very positive way. Regular physi- cal activity energizes the body, and since martial arts are based on natural law, the body can quickly reach top conditioning. Once physical changes develop, they soon lead to the mental and emotional improve- ments that many seek through the martial arts.
