Lady Champions
Lady Champions allows a woman to emphasize many of her natural physical strengths (such as power in the legs) while learning a method of self-defense effective against a much larger opponent. Knowing you can defend yourself will increase your confidence. Confidence alone is usually enough to deter potential attackers. This program instills a sense of discipline and self confidence that can carry over to all aspects of your life.
Adult Champions
The Tae Kwon Do (T.K.D.) and Haidong Gumdo system provides mental and physical discipline training to enhance life in the family and community. Adult Champions trains the physical body by exercising the muscles, bones, and joints of the body. As you learn and perform defensive techniques, you will condition the body, increase stamina and endurance. By training and eating healthy, you will control your weight. Adult Champions trains the mental body by exercising the mind to choose the right way. The correct way for the Adult Champions is to choose to provide leadership, exhibit humility, to show respect and possess good manners.
FITNESS — The principles of T.K.D. and Haidong Gumdotechniques are based on the design of your body. For power, you develop the larger, more powerful muscles of the torso. The speed of the techniques comes from the fast agile muscles of the arms and legs.
SELF DEFENSE— When the speed and power developed through T.K.D. and Haidong Gumdo is used in a self-defense situation against the soft vulnerable parts of an attacker’s body, the result can be incredible.
SELF CONFIDENCE—This does not come naturally for many people, but self confidence can be developed over a period of time.
HAIDONG GUMDO
The Way of the Sword
Haidong Gumdo is an ancient Korean sword art particularly focusing on enhancing control of our inner self. This sword art does not require advanced athletic prowess, yet develops balance, coordination and focus. These skills carry over into your daily life resulting in a more peaceful, confident co-existence with the world. Advanced techniques include bamboo and straw cutting.
