If you are in Korea, take advantage of this opportunity to train with world renowned martial arts Grandmaster Kim Soo. Founder of the Chayon-Ryu ("Natural Way") martial arts system. Chayon-Ryu is based on the natural movements found within each of its parent styles - Chinese Chu'an Fa, Japanese Karate, Korean Taekwondo, Okinawa-Te, Judo/ Jujitsu, and Hapkido/ Aikido. Chayon-Ryu teaches natural body motion as the basis of all techniques in order to promote power, safety, health, and fitness. Chayon-Ryu is more than just the physical practice of several martial arts. Within the practice, it incorporates an educational system of teaching: Morality, Purpose, Humility, Common Sense, Persistence, and Patience. From this system, one becomes self confident and through self - confidence, one gains self esteem. With these components, one is able to fight the every day enemies, which are not external (physical attackers) but internal such as stress, worry, insecurity, jealousy, impatience, defeat, and depression. Chayon-Ryu is especially valuable to children. Since the focus is on training ones mind, body, and spirit and not on fighting, violence or competition, the child is able to take away a feeling of accomplishment, self-worth and a way of life through mental and physical balance.
