Kumdo is an ancient art of Korean fencing. An art that is similar to the art practiced by the samurai of Japan. In Korea, the warriors who historically practiced this art were the highly educated scholars known as the Hwarang. In the modern world, this art is an ideal choice for the individual who wants all the benefits of martial arts training without having to worry about injury or physical contact.
The Northwest Headquarters of the Korea Kumdo Association is located right here in King County! Baik San Kumdo Academy offers group lessons in this ancient art Monday - Saturday.
