 Brief Overview of Tang Soo Do
Tang Soo Do is a traditional Korean karate that emphasizes health, self-defense and striving to become a better person. Tang Soo Do has a rich history that dates back over 2000 years. It can best be described as a blend between Karate and Kung Fu. This Art combines hard style punches, kicks and blocks, as well as soft style grabs throws and joint locking techniques.
This mysterious martial art was popularized in the United States under the direction of Grandmaster Jae Chul Shin who came to the United States of America as the U.S. representative for the Korean Soo Bahk Do Association. He formed the United States Tang Soo Do Federation in Burlington, New Jersey. The organization expanded to all parts of America and foreign countries. This traditional and classical art was quickly accepted and soon grew in popularity throughout America and the world. After 14 years of Tang Soo Do promotion in the U.S.A. and the world, the organization was re-organized to fit new demands internationally and domestically. With the proclamation of three mottos, Traditionalism, Professionalism and Brotherhood, the advent of the World Tang Soo Do Association evoked the interest of many international martial artists, whose genuine interest was in the Art, and was not sports oriented.
