<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Jung Ki Kwan is a traditional martial arts academy established in 1974 by Grand Master Lim, Hyun Soo<\/strong>. We practice Jung Ki Hapkido<\/strong> and Chung Suk Kuhapdo<\/strong>. Jung Ki Hapkido consists of the ORIGINAL STYLE OF Hapkido taught by Hapkido Founder Choi, Yong Sool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Grand Master Lim is a direct disciple of Choi, Yong Sool and his longest running student. Grand Master Lim trained with Founder Choi for 19 years. Through Grand Master Lim, Founder Choi’s Hapkido principles and techniques are preserved among his senior students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chung Suk Kuhapdo is a sword art developed by Grand Master Lim after studying and practicing various Korean and Japanese sword arts. Chung Suk Kuhapdo combines the core principles and techniques of traditional sword practice and the core principles of Hapkido into dynamic fighting movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
