What Is Kumdo?

Kumdo means "The Way of the Sword"

At our Academy, students will have the opportunity to achieve ranks in our white belt - black belt Korean sword curriculum.  Studying the sword has many benefits to it's practitioner.  You will improve upper-body strength, balance, coordination, footwork, accuracy, speed, power, and confidence.

Forms (poomse)

Each rank will learn different forms with various movements.  Kumdo forms are different than Tae Kwon Do, as they incorporate many non-linear movements.  Posture, balance, and coordination are key benefits from this aspect of Kumdo.

Object training

Students will be able to test their accuracy, follow through, and technique using different objects.  Using the sword we snuff candles, cut paper, cut apples, and use other training equipment.

Foam Sword Sparring

At our facility, students will have the opportunity to test their timing in a live situation.  We use protective head gear and foam swords and put two or more students against each other in a fun competitive way.

What Kind of Sword?

Each practitioner begins their Kumdo journey with a heavy wooden sword.  They then move on to a wooden sword with a scabbard, and then a dull metal sword.  After a minimum of 5 years, a student will then be able to use a live blade sharp metal sword.
