Han Mu Do, the Way of Korean Martial Arts, was developed by Dr. He-Young Kimm in 1989 and focuses on falls, empty hand techniques, weapons, and technical forms. Areas of defense taught include defense against punches, kicks, wrist grabs, cloth grabs and body grabs from the front and behind, and knives. You will learn physical techniques for throwing, locking joints and pressure points, escorting, and choking. You will also learn mental techniques such as Ki (internal energy) breathing and meditation, and you will be exposed to the thoughtful martial arts philosophy Dr. Kimm built into every Han Mu Do technique. As you progress, you will also meet the worldwide Han Mu Do community through representatives who attend seminars held at our Baton Rouge location twice annually.

​

Han Mu Do training is much more than a series of techniques and exercises. It is a comprehensive path toward mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Students from all backgrounds and at all levels of physical fitness are welcome. No previous martial arts experience is necessary.
