I believe I can answer your question.

here are a few of the questions I had:

Have you viewed the DVDs published by MGK? I've been thinking of purchasing them... any input would be appreciated.

Where are the yuk rho forms placed in your curriculum?

Do you include the softer moves in your basic motion (kihon) practice?

Not only have I viewed them, I actually demonstrated several of the hyungs on the DVD series, inluding Jin Do, Rho Hai, Chil Sung Ill Rho, Chil Sung E Rho and Chil Sung Sahm Rho. I believe the DVDs are a very high quality learning aid. They don't replace the need for an instructor, but they are an excellent learning tool and reference source.

We currently have the Yuk Rho hyungs placed at the dan levels in our curriculum. Yuk Rho Cho Dan at Cho Dan, one at each dan level, culminating with Yuk Rho Yuk Dan at Yuk dan.

Not so much on the softer techniques in basic soo gi practice. It is practiced mostly in the hyungs.

BTW, you could've asked me these questions on warrior-scholar.
