About Y. T. Tang Soo Do

Tang Soo Do is an ancient martial art, which originated 2,000 years ago in Korea. Tang Soo Do is a method of empty hand, foot, and weapons fighting base on the scientific use of the body in self-defense. Tang Soo Do is based on the principles of yielding, circulars motion and penetration. As a student you will learn to use your hands and feet in such a manner as to simulate actual combat with an armed or unarmed opponent. The techniques and philosophy are taught as they were in ancient times, although the system has adjusted to the modern lifestyles. Most of all, Tang Soo Do is designed to develop individual character, mental strength, integrity, and respect for others. All members of the teaching staff are Certified Instructors of Tang Soo Do and are holders of Black Belts granted by the World Tang Soo Do Association, under the leadership of our founder Grandmaster Jae C. Shin, 9th Dan, and our current Grandmaster William Strong, 9th Dan.
