Han Mu Do

Han Mu Do, which is Korean for the Korean Martial Way, is a martial art that focuses on balance. Founded by Grandmaster He-Young Kimm (pictured), Han Mu Do incorporates various forms of Korean martial arts, including hapkido and taekwondo. As you already know, taekwondo is a cornerstone of Tiger-Rock Martial Arts training.

Han Mu Do is a balanced fighting system that is designed to be versatile against various forms of combat strategies. Defensive in nature, techniques in this system encourage continuously fluid and gentle movement that will leave an opponent immobilized on the ground.

Techniques and Principles

Han Mu Do classes and training in Woodlands teaches three main defensive principles. From these principles, the practitioner will employ various strategies to counter the opponent’s attack.

See & Assess: When an attack is coming, quickly see and assess the situation. You will then know which approach to take.

Stop the attack: During Han Mu Do training in Woodlands you will be taught various soft and hard blocks as an initial defense against an opponent’s attacking offense. This may result in you being able to evade the attack, escape the attack, or, if necessary, escalate your defense.

Solve the situation: The successful defense against an attack depends on which level of intensity you will have to employ. The attack may end with you successfully escaping. It may continue to where you will have to exert control via joint locks. If you find yourself in significant danger, you will resort to striking, kicking, throws, joint locks, or weapons.
