TAZ Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 Has anybody ever heard of Gumdo? There is a new dojo that just opened up close to where I live that offers Gumdo-Tae Kwon Do. Just curious! "Blessed be the Lord my Rock, and my keen and firm Strength, Who teaches my hands to war and my fingers to fight." Psalm 144:1
TkdXBelt Posted December 8, 2005 Posted December 8, 2005 I went to a competition where the had Gumdo forms and sparring. When I heard they were going to spar I thought it would be with bokken, but they did it with these nurf-herder like swords. It was still interesting though.
