Soo Bahk Do® is a Korean traditional martial art whose history dates back many centuries. Kicking techniques, for which Soo Bahk Do® is renowned, are based on the Moo Duk Kwan® style as developed by Grandmaster Hwang Kee. Soo Bahk Do® is not a sport. Though it is not essentially competitive, it has great combat applications. As a classical martial art, its purpose is to develop every aspect of the self, in order to create a mature person who totally integrates his/her intellect, body, emotions, and spirit. This integration helps to create a person who is free from inner conflict, and who can deal with the outside world in a mature, intelligent, forthright, and virtuous manner.
