Many advertise their style as traditional, but do not really follow the old etiquette to which we Special Training for BB Club 3 are bound. GM Shin and GM Beaudoin have set the bar pretty high. By demonstrating great perseverance and dedication, they have challenged us to follow their example.

  • History of Tae Kwon Do.Pdf
    Tae Kwon Do History Introduction: Although modern Taekwondo has actually only existed for about 50 years (the martial art known Tae Kwon Do was developed between 1945 and 1955 and only became known as Tae Kwon Do in 1955.), it is based upon Shotokan Karate, another 20th century martial art, and ancient Korea martial arts, such as Taekkyon and Subak, that have lost favor in modern times. Tae Kwon Do is a martial art that means "The Way of the Feet and Hands". Writings on Taekwondo history usually portray Taekwondo as an unique product of Korean culture, developed over the long course of Korean history since the Three Kingdoms Era. However, Taekwondo's primary influence came from Japanese Karate that was introduced into Korea during the Japanese occupation of Korea during the early 1900s. Few written records on ancient Korean history exist, so factual information on Korean martial arts is scarce and sketchy. Because of this, most Korean martial arts writers find something in Korean history to support their claims; writers on Tae Kwon Do included. If one researches the history of Tae Kwon Do, in the research they will find differing and sometimes contradictory information. Majority of this information is a summary taken from Reference 1. For more details, please review the entire material on history of Tae Kwon Do from Reference 1. Origins of Tae Kwon Do: Empty-hand fighting did not originate wholly in only one country, but it developed naturally in every place humans settled. In each country, people adapted their fighting techniques to deal with the dangers in their local environments.

  • Moo Duk Kwan
    Tae Kwon Do Moo Duk Kwan A Review What is Tae Kwon Do? • Taekwondo is a Korean martial art and the national sport of South Korea. In Korean, tae means "to strike or break with foot"; means "to strike or break with fist"; and means "way", "method", or "path". Thus, taekwondo may be loosely translated as "the way of the hand and the foot.” Source: Wikipedia So, what is Tae Kwon Do? • "Traditional taekwondo" typically refers to the martial art as it was established in the 1950s and 1960s in the South Korean military, and in various civilian organizations, including schools and universities. In particular, the names and symbolism of the traditional patterns often refer to elements of Korean history, culture and religious philosophy. Today, the Kukkiwon, or World Taekwondo Headquarters is the traditional center for Taekwondo in Korea. Source: Wikipedia What are Original Tae Kwon Do Schools? • The Five Original Kwans (Schools) – Song Moo Kwan - founded March 11, 1944 by Ro, Byung Jick. – Chung Do Kwan - founded in 1944 by Lee, Won Kyuk. – Moo Duk Kwan - founded after 1946 by Hwang Kee. – Kwon Bop Bu/Chang Moo Kwan - founded in 1946 by Yoon, Byung-In. – Yun Moo Kwan/Jidokwan - founded March 3, 1946 by Chun, Sang Sup. • Later Kwans (derived from the original five) – Han Moo Kwan - founded in August 1954 by Lee Kyo Yoon. – Oh Do Kwan - founded in 1955 by Choi Hong Hi, Nam Tae Hi, and Han Cha Kyo. – Kang Duk Won - founded in 1956 by Park Chul Hee and Hong Jong Pyo – Jung Do Kwan - founded in 1956 by Lee Yong Woo.

  • The Necessity to Know History. in 1945, Moo Duk Kwan Was Found in Order to Spread, Prosper and Create Understanding of Soo Bahk
    The necessity to know history. In 1945, Moo Duk Kwan was found in order to spread, prosper and create understanding of Soo Bahk Do (now called Tang Soo Do), which is the special martial art of Korea, and has a long history and tradition. The foundation of Moo Duk Kwan has remained unshakable by the cooperation and efforts of all members and persons who are interested. The fame of Moo Duk Kwan has grown not only in Korea, but all over the world. Now, although technique is very important, theory has to be taught for the purpose of the increase of Tang Soo Do and the martial arts. First of all, therefore, all members must perfectly understand the foundation theory of rational history about the art. From time to time some members who have excellent skills deviate from the right path because they do not know and understand it's true history and the foundation. So it is very important to study history and the foundation theory. The theory of it's origin. The exact origin of Tang Soo Do, as well as karate in general, is obscure. However, there are many equally beautiful theories. An argument continues to rage about the origin of both weapon using and weaponless fighting techniques. Some Japanese karate experts insist that the art is of Japanese origin; some say it came from Okinawa; others say it began in China and spread from there. Although there are various theories and views explaining it's history in Korea, we will consider the Moo Duk Kwan's assertion as described in Moo Duk Kwan's major text book Soo Bahk Do Dae Kam, written by Grand Master Hwang Kee, president.

  • 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.
