HAIDONG GUMDO & TANG SOO DO

[haidongNC]

This is to anyone out there that is in Haidong Gumdo, and/or Tang soo do.

Myself, I am a first degree in both arts, I am from Charlotte Nc, if anyone has any questions just right back.... [/b]TANG SOO!!!

[granmasterchen]

i've studied a lot of tsd

i haven't taken gumdo but I have studied quite extensively with weapons, especially the katana....yep I know, Japanese, not Korean.....

but then again, the forms of tsd come from Japanese karate....so no harm no foul

[haidongNC]

yes I see, I respect the japanese sword very,

the art that you take what is the name of it? IF you do take japanese sword art, are you considered a Samuari? Koreans consider themselves Samurang....ancient warriors..i will have to win the world championship in korea 2006.. to achieve the rank Samurang..

[sdargie]

You can achieve the rank of samurang? Is there any way to earn the title of samurai? I didn't know that it was considered a rank now and not a class of people or office/job.

[haidongNC]

if you win the world championship in Korea,( that is every 2 years) yes, you are then considered a Samurang...i dont know about the japanese because im not....i go to korea to achieve that goal in july of 2006....

if you want any info conserning haidong gumdo send me a message thank you for your time

[granmasterchen]

nope, no samurai here....I've just studied the katana with many of the karate classes that I have taken, along with the classic japanese weapons, and also in my mdk tkd class
