The main curriculum follows along the same lines as any other martial art. However, spinning and dancing techniques to develop coordination, rhythm, timing and softness are also incorporated and given equal importance to the actual fighting training. The principle of Ki or Chi is central to the practice and teaching of the art.
This theme is clearly illustrated in the legend of how the art was founded; it is said that Grand Master Myung always wakes early in the morning and breathes the profound secrets of nature. Breathing techniques are fundamental to the development of Ki and the legend goes on to suggest that whilst practicing his Ki Gong skills, Master Myung spontaneously started to move and the movement were those movements inspired by the profound wisdom of nature as found in breath, this it is said went on to become Hankido.
With over 35 years of experience he has trained and taught in China and Korea for 12 years.
