One of many personal achievements of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim is the Kyung Gong Sul Bope
(flying side kick). Pictured above, Grandmaster jumps from the top of a building – a corner of
the roof is visible in the photo.
Not all martial arts movements are the same. Kyung Gong Sul Bope is different than a jump
side kick. One can see the strength in the hands, feet, neck – the entire body. Once achieved,
this strength sustains one’s mental and physical health and well-being. Once achieved, this
strength benefits one’s daily life, family, and friends.
Each photo of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim shows tremendous internal strength and willpower.
Each photo is also a guide and a challenge for students. When students correctly execute a
movement, they take a step closer to reaching their goals. Grandmaster “Iron” Kim has said,
“the photographs are not for my benefit. They are for your benefit to develop yourself.
Through correct movement, you can improve your mental and physical strength. Once people
have reached mental and physical improvement, no one can take that away from them.”
Over the centuries, few have reached the level of knowledge of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim.
Knowledge is important, but most important are the great number of people around the world
that have benefited from Oom Yung Doe practice.
We would like to recognize and thank Grandmaster “Iron” Kim for bringing the Oom Yung line
of traditional martial arts to the U.S. and sharing his knowledge for the benefit of instructors
and students around the country.

What follows is a brief history and a very basic explanation of the meaning,
the benefits, and the forms and movements that comprise Traditional Moo
Doe (Martial Arts), as it has been taught and passed down over the centuries.
True Moo Doe is rare, and finding someone who knows, understands and
can explain true Moo Doe is equally rare. There are very few individuals to-
day who hold correct and complete knowledge of Moo Doe. Herein contains
the true definition of Moo Doe as explained by Grandmaster "Iron" Kim,
one of those few individuals who genuinely understand Moo Doe knowledge.
Many have claimed to know Moo Doe, but the proof is not in just what is
said, but in the strength of the movement.
Anyone who has seen Grandmaster "Iron" Kim demonstrate Moo Doe
movement can, perhaps, begin to understand what true strength is. Over the
centuries, many generations of individuals have dedicated their entire lives to
developing and teaching Moo Doe. In an age of passing interests, very few
have this level of dedication and determination. The basic principles of com-
passion, strength, dedication, determination, patience and understanding are
the heart of Moo Doe. Those who have practiced and gained from this an-
cient line of knowledge truly know.
In the next few pages, one will find a history of the Moo Doe line of
knowledge in the United States. Although this line of knowledge has been
taught under different names, it can be recognized by the strength of the
movement.
Next, is a biographical account of some of the milestones in the remarkable
life of Grandmaster "Iron" Kim, dedicating his life to teaching the benefits of
true Moo Doe to every individual willing to try and open to learning.
INTRODUCTION

THE HISTORY OF TRUE MOO DOE GRANDMASTERS
Many believe that the practice of true Moo Doe (Martial Arts) is the best way to achieve tremendous mental,
physical and spiritual strength and well-being. This is one of the main reasons that the practice of Moo Doe has
been held in such high esteem in East Asia throughout the centuries.
Today, around the world, only a few dedicated people
have reached the level of a true Grandmaster. These
individuals are unique and incomparable in their Moo
Doe abilities. They are extremely selective about where,
and to whom, they pass on their knowledge.
True Moo Doe practitioners meticulously follow prop-
er Moo Doe training steps which result in miraculous
long-term mental, physical, and spiritual strength.
Throughout the centuries, true Moo Doe Grandmas-
ters have upgraded the Moo Doe training steps to ac-
commodate the different needs of their generations.
These upgrades are necessary to maintain the miracu-
lous mental, physical, and spiritual strengths achieved
by prior generations. In this century, Grandmaster
“Iron” Kim upgraded the training steps, taking into consideration such things as current living conditions,
modern technology, the constant attack by toxic environmental forces, and stress on the mind and body.
True Grandmasters never change true Moo Doe principles (Chung Doe, correct path) for any reason. If these
principles are altered, the practitioner is not practicing true Moo Doe, and will not achieve Moo Doe benefits.
Rather, the practice devolves into basic exercise with minimal health benefits – an ineffective use of time. As a
practitioner ages, the differences between true Moo Doe and improper training become even more obvious.
Many higher-level practitioners, who have researched the Oom Yung (Chung Moo) style for more than a quar-
ter century, believe in the legends of the origin of the Oom Yung (Chung Moo) line of Masters and Grandmas-
ters. Through this research, more details regarding the history of traditional Moo Doe knowledge and
Grandmaster “Iron” Kim will be released through lessons and written materials.
HISTORY

HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL OF
OOM YUNG DOE (CHUNG MOO DOE)
Because of the long history of Moo Doe, there are many different beliefs
and legends associated with its origins. For example, there are different
movements and different legends associated with the word or name
“Bagwa.” Some say it is a person’s name; some say it is a style of martial
arts; and some say it is a figure or pattern of movement. Some people say
that the Bagwa style originated about 200 to 400 years ago. Others say
that it dates back several thousand years. The Oom Yung / Chung Moo
style follows the legend that Bagwa was a person’s name, and that he was
the founder of the Oom Yung / Chung Moo line of martial arts about
1500 to 2000 years ago.
The Oom Yung Doe / Chung Moo Doe style of Moo Doe is taught in
the United States and throughout the world today by its founder,
Grandmaster “Iron” Kim. It encompasses all the form and movement of
the Oom Yung Doe line of Moo Doe, taught over the centuries, since the
time of the first generation Grandmaster “Bagwa.” The seventh genera-
tion Grandmaster Wang Po taught the Oom Yung line of martial arts
under the given name of Yin Yang Doe.
Other styles of East Asian Moo Doe have been incorporated into the
original Oom Yung / Chung Moo line. Today, about twenty percent of
the Oom Yung Doe / Chung Moo Doe style is derived from other styles
of East Asian Martial Arts and has come to be known as “Eight Martial
Arts taught as One,” or “All Martial Arts United.”
Throughout history, the given names of the different styles of martial arts have changed, and the form and
movement have been refined. It is also common for each Grandmaster to select a unique name (given name)
to distinguish that generation of form and movement from the previous.
In the early 1970s, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim brought the Oom Yung Doe / Chung Moo Doe line of martial
arts to the United States from East Asia.
HISTORY

GRANDMASTER "IRON" KIM
THE 8TH GENERATION GRANDMASTER OF THE
OOM YUNG/CHUNG MOO LINE OF MARTIAL ARTS
The origins of a line of martial arts are based on the movement,
strength and credibility of the individual master, his instructors
and his students. The strength of the movement determines
how strong the style is and the credibility of that generation of
individuals. The true test of any Moo Doe expert’s skill is not in
what he or she can say, but rather in what can be demonstrated.
The achievements of Grandmaster “Iron” Kim and his expla-
nations of Moo Doe moral philosophy clearly show the
strength and credibility of the Oom Yung / Chung Moo line of
martial arts knowledge.
A FEW OF GRANDMASTER “IRON” KIM’s ACHIEVEMENTS At the age of seven, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim began his life’s path in the study and practice of martial arts.
To achieve perfection of his martial art movements, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim many times chose the solitude
of the mountain and ocean areas of Asia to practice the forms and techniques that he learned. Although he
learned from many qualified teachers, a majority of the knowledge that Grandmaster “Iron” Kim possesses
was passed down through Grandmaster Wang Po, the 7th generation Grandmaster of Yin Yang Doe.
As an apple is thrown toward Grandmaster "Iron" Kim, he cuts it into
4 pieces with a sword. Tremendous speed, accuracy and timing is
necessary in order to accomplish this feat.
MASTER “IRON” KIM
UNCONTESTED "CHAMPION
OF ALL ASIA" In 1956, Master "Iron" Kim did compete in and win
the All Asia Championship that was held in the Cho
Leung area of Pusan. It was sponsored that year by
Grandmaster Wang PO. The Chinese title of Chung
Moon Jik or "champion" was bestowed upon Master
"Iron" Kim. The first place award that he received
was called a Chung Moon Chung, which is a paper
scroll with wooden rods at each end. It is inscribed
with the accomplishments of the winner and carries
the official seal of the tournament. Several promi-
nent judges and martial artists were in attendance at
this championship and hold in their memory the
truth of this occasion . The presiding judges were
10
Yang Chou Fai (then a resident of Taegu), Wang Sei Kau (then a resident of Pusan) and Hwan Byung Quan
(then a resident of Pusan). These three judges were originally residents of China. Also in attendance were Mok
Jing Quan, from Osan, Korea; Chae Jung Su, of Dong Nae, Pusan; Park Hyun Su, of Sum Yun, Pusan; Yu Gee
Han, of Taegu; Chil Sung and Park Yung-Gil of Daichon, Korea. Anyone who has knowledge of martial arts
during that period will recognize the tradition of the Chung Dong Yang Moo Sul Yun Moo Dae Hwey (All Asia
Championship Tournament) and the names that appear above.
After winning the All Asia Championship Tournament, Master "Iron" Kim continued to excel in martial arts
form and movement. He taught others and, in fact, sponsored many of the Chun Dong Yang Moo Sul Yun
Moo Dae Hwey championships; which at the time, were held in the
Sum Yun area of Pusan, Korea. Other co-sponsors of these tourna-
ments with Master "Iron" Kim were Park-Yang Su, Choe Jung Su,
Sun Baek Yew and Ee Jun Yu, all having the accomplished position
of Chong Sa Bu or Sa Bu (assistant master or one step below) in
their respective styles. The strength of the Oom Yung line that Mas-
ter "Iron" Kim demonstrated at these contests convinced other prac-
titioners to decline challenging him in the years that he sponsored
the tournament. Because he was uncontested champion during that
time, Master "Iron" Kim was bestowed the honorable and respected
position and title of "Chon Shim Pan Whey Won Chaeng," or
"Supreme Judge and Arbiter," by the co-sponsors and the martial
arts experts who participated in these tournaments. Even though
Master "Iron" Kim did earn the title of uncontested Champion of
All Asia, he felt that there was much more to learn, and thus he con-
tinued to study and develop his skills further. His ultimate hope was
that all martial arts could some day be united.
“ALL MARTIAL ARTS UNITED” In the early 1960’s Master “Iron” Kim expanded his quest for knowledge. He traveled and sought Masters who
had reached a higher level of Moo Doe knowledge. There were seven top practitioners from an elite group of
about twenty Masters throughout East Asia with whom Master “Iron” Kim exchanged individual skills in the
martial arts. All the names of the practitioners that appear above were part of that group of about twenty top
Masters. Master “Iron” Kim’s purpose was to build his own wisdom, knowledge and understanding in the Moo
Doe traditions of the eight main styles. Regardless of how far he had to travel or the difficulty of the training,
Master “Iron” Kim relentlessly pursued, learned and absorbed the complete knowledge of form and movement
from these top practitioners. After completing the training, Master “Iron” Kim then shared his knowledge of
the Oom Yung / Chung Moo style with the top members from this group. After seven years of training and
sharing his knowledge with the best practitioners in East Asia, Master “Iron” Kim became one of a few elite
practitioners who were well-rounded in the eight main martial art styles. He was one of several Moo Doe prac-
titioners responsible for uniting all Moo Doe, and capable of teaching eight martial arts together as one style, or
“All Martial Arts United.” Finally, after seven years, his wish of bringing together “All Martial Arts United” and
the Oom Yung line became a reality.
Of the hundreds of millions of people who practiced martial arts in the 20th century, Master “Iron” Kim was
one of approximately fifty practitioners who achieved unprecedented fame and recognition for being the most
skilled in Moo Doe.

MASTER "IRON" KIM ESTABLISHES THE OOM YUNG/
CHUNG MOO STYLE IN THE UNITED STATES
Master “Iron” Kim’s goal was to teach the Oom Yung / Chung Moo line to people of all
nations. To do so, he planned to build a strong foundation of martial arts in the United
States from which to spread worldwide. With this goal, Master “Iron” Kim left East Asia
and came to the United States in the early 1970’s.
In 1970, Master “Iron” Kim demonstrated Kyung Gong Sul Bope by jumping from the
equivalent of an 11-story building. In 1972, shortly after arriving in the United States,
Master “Iron” Kim again demonstrated the Kyung Gong Sul Bope movement by jump-
ing from the equivalent of an 8-story building and landing without injury on a sloped sur-
face below. Very few individuals have ever accomplished such feats.
Upon arriving in the United States, Master “Iron” Kim felt he could best begin to teach
martial arts by first learning basic English and American culture. In 1973, after educating
himself on the American way of life, Master “Iron” Kim opened the first of four schools
that he owned in the United States. Many times in areas where schools became estab-
lished, the local paper would interview Master “Iron” Kim, and write articles about him
and the Oom Yung /Chung Moo style of martial arts.
In early 1974, Master “Iron” Kim briefly returned to Korea. It was at this time that Wang Po, the 7th genera-
tion Grandmaster of Yin Yang Doe, passed to Master “Iron” Kim all the knowledge and traditions that had,
likewise, been passed to him. Soon thereafter, the title of 8th generation Master of the Oom Yung line was be-
stowed upon Master “Iron” Kim. Grandmaster Wang Po passed away in 1976 in Pusan at the age of 93.
It was also in 1974 that Master “Iron” Kim was the principal
martial arts demonstrator for the second “Billy Jack” movie
promotional titled “The Trial of Billy Jack.” In this exhibi-
tion, Master “Iron” Kim performed in front of approxi-
mately 125 martial arts masters and experts from around the
world, and over one hundred actors and actresses.
In 1975, about a year after the untimely death of martial arts
actor Bruce Lee, Warner Brothers motion picture studios
began their search for a replacement. After auditioning martial arts “experts” from around the world, Master
“Iron” Kim was asked to screen test and was subsequently pronounced Warner Brothers’ selection. At that
time, Master “Iron” Kim was faced with the choice of accepting a motion picture contract or continuing to
teach his art. Master “Iron” Kim chose to continue to teach for the benefit of tens of thousands of students.
In 1975, Master “Iron” Kim was also the principal demonstrator for the International Martial Arts Exhibition
benefiting the “Asian Orphans Charity.” Over thirty masters and experts assisted Master “Iron” Kim in this
worthy cause. The proceeds from this charitable event provided aid to children of all nationalities.
In 1976, Master “Iron” Kim taught U. S. military martial arts instructors from around the United States. These
training sessions were conducted at Master Kim’s training center near Ft. Jackson, South Carolina.

From 1977 through 1982, Master “Iron” Kim devoted his energies to training a select group of black belt stu-
dents who had previously demonstrated both outstanding abilities coupled with the mental or “chung” discipline
that Master Kim required of all advanced students. Beginning in 1983 and continuing through 1989, Master
“Iron” Kim concentrated on training select 3rd degree through 8th degree Instructors and Masters.
In 1989, for the first time, Master “Iron” Kim founded “Chung Moo Doe” to represent the heritage of the royal
line of martial arts for the first generation of practitioners in the United States. By so doing, Master “Iron” Kim
then carried on the title of Chong Su Nim (Honorable Founder).
The annual “Eight Martial Arts National Championship Tournament” began in the 1990s and has been held un-
der the name of Chong Su Nim (Honorable Founder) “Iron” Kim, whose great skills are recognized internation-
ally. To this day, tournaments are held for both students and instructors, with medals and certificates awarded at
the competition’s end. At these tournaments, Oom Yung Doe Instructors have presented honorary martial arts
certificates to United States Senators and Congressmen, as well
as numerous judges, government officials, police and military
officers, television anchors, clergy and community leaders. These
individuals have all recognized the vital role that Chong Su Nim
“Iron” Kim’s teachings have played in inspiring hundreds of
thousands of people throughout the years.
Chong Su Nim “Iron” Kim trained the instructors who demon-
strated the proper use of weapons and “empty hand” combat to
members of the FBI during the 17th Annual International Asian
Organized Crime Conference held in 1995.
In 1996, Chong Su Nim “Iron” Kim formally became Grandmaster “Iron” Kim of eight different martial arts
disciplines and retired. Unlike the average retiree who turns his thoughts and life in a new direction, Grandmaster
“Iron” Kim undertook the intense study of methods for bettering the physical and mental abilities of all age
groups, with special emphasis on the aging.
In addition to passing Traditional Moo Doe training throughout Moo Doe schools, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim
passed his knowledge of Moo Doe therapies and cures for many illnesses through seminars and other venues
worldwide. During this process, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim often explained the principles of “Oom Yung” (Yin
Yang), which was easier for many to relate to than the name “Chung Moo.” Translated, “Chung Moo” means
specifically “mind and body.” The name “Oom Yung” (Korean) is the same as “Yin Yang” (Chinese), which
means the balance and harmony of everything in nature — which, of course, is inclusive of “mind and body.”
In 1999, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim chose to use the name “Oom Yung Doe” to represent all the knowledge that
is being passed down to the schools, the community and throughout the world.
Throughout history, only a very small number have earned the status of Grandmaster of true Moo Doe. Before
he came to the U.S. in 1972, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim had achieved the highest level of skill possible within the
eight different Martial Arts. Grandmaster “Iron” Kim is one of very few people to demonstrate miraculous men-
tal and physical Moo Doe strength. Because of this strength, Grandmaster “Iron” Kim is considered one of the
most powerful Moo Doe practitioners of the 21st Century.
At the Billy Jack movie promotion, Grandmaster
"Iron" Kim uses 1/2 ton of force within 1/4 inch to
break a brick on student's head without injury.

8 MARTIAL ARTS TAUGHT AS ONE
공수도 Kong Su / Tae Kwon Do (Korean Style/Japanese Style)
Kong means “empty.” Su means “way.” Kong Su translates to “Empty Hand Way.” This hard style focuses on straight
speed where hard blocks and attacks are executed with strong, external force. Practicing this style greatly increases external
strength within a short period of time. Offense is straight, side, back, and forward with explosive hand and foot attacks.
The feet (especially kicks, including front snap, side, and reverse kicks) are more often used than the hands and strikes are
usually straight at many different angles. Certain techniques strengthen the knuckles and bones in the hands and feet for
more effective striking. Defense is straight up, down, in, out, and to the side.
Oom Yung Doe Martial Arts uses Kong Su as part of its basic training because the movements are simple and linear.
Through this practice, one gains a simplistic, but necessary foundation of speed, strength, and coordination as a basis for
more advanced and intricate martial arts techniques. Kong Su movements
are especially beneficial for younger students and help build reflexes, coor-
dination, and timing. For older students (over the age of 50), it is best to
practice these movements lightly, and without snap. Otherwise, it can
stress joints.
Increased determination and discipline are just a few of the immediate ben-
efits. In addition to physical confidence, the practitioner gains a dramatic
increase in both muscle flexibility and strength and a beginning level of
joint flexibility.
유도 Udo / Jujitsu (Korean Style/Japanese Style)
U means “soft” or “flexible.” Do means “way.” Udo translates to "Flexible Way.” The form is soft and develops
proper falling techniques without injury by keeping the body flexible and developing coordination and strength.
The practitioner develops self defense against strikes, grabs, and kicks and in both offensive and defensive move-
ments, the opponent's strength is used against them. Precise
placement of the feet is vital, and strong handgrips are applied
over the opponent's entire body. Strikes are in all different direc-
tions, using more circles than angles.
This training develops flexibility throughout the body, particular-
ly in the spine. Agility and coordination are greatly increased.

공부 Goong Bu Kung Fu (Chinese Style)
Goong means “palace” Bu means “out of.” Goong Bu was the martial art study “From the Palace” Offensive and de-
fensive movements are straight but curve in all different directions using more circles than angles. Forms combine con-
trolled soft and hard movements that become instinctive. Self-defense utilizes circular motions, blocks, and attacks
while moving as one with the entire body.
Development is both internal and external. Practitioners quickly
increase energy allowing the body to feel comfortable and relaxed
throughout the day. This energy improves circulation, which in
turn stimulates organs. One also gains muscle and joint flexibility,
coordination, strength, speed, and significant increases in range of
motion. Practice also increases muscle tone and is good for
weight loss.
합기도 Hap Ki Do / Ai Ki Do (Korean Style/Japanese Style)
Hap means “United.” Ki means “Energy.” Do means “Way.” Ai means “Harmony.” Ki means “Energy.” Do
means “Way.” Therefore, Hap Ki Do translates to “United Energy Way” and Ai Ki Do means “Harmony Ener-
gy Way.” In Hap Ki Do, movements are hard and soft. Target areas include joints, pressure points, and nerves,
and close proximity to the opponent is most beneficial. Hands and feet are used equally for offensive and defen-
sive, and strikes are in all directions with mostly angles rather than circles. Similarly, in Ai Ki Do, movements are
hard and soft and the target areas are the joints, pressure points, and nerves. However, hands are usually used
more than feet. Offensive and defensive movements are applied in all directions, angles, and curves, and utilize a
very strong handgrip. The practitioner will gain skills in defending against grabs from the front, side, and back.
Ai Ki Do develops tremendous strength and flexibility in the
hands, wrists, elbows, and forearms. This arm strength leads to an
explosive punch. Practice prevents maladies in the fingers, hands,
wrists, forearms, and elbows such as arthritis, rheumatism, and
carpal tunnel syndrome.

태극권 Tai Chi Chung (Chinese Style)
Tai Chi is sometimes described as moving meditation and combines both offensive and defensive applications.
Movements are so varied that every part of the body engages. Each harmonious form flows with the grace of a
specific aspect of nature and works with nature’s energy. Examples include the swaying motion of willow branches
being coerced by a gentle breeze or clouds slowly changing in shape or form. Movements are slow and deliberate
without force or power. The speed of the breathing matches the speed of the movement.
Tai Chi Chung develops inner strength, mental calmness, physical
well-being, and overall health. Some of the immediate benefits
students notice are mental calmness, an increase in energy, better
circulation, and chi flow.
검도 Kom Do (Korean and Japanese Style)
Kom Do is the practice of Samurai Sword. Movements are very quick, precise, and powerful, and in all different
directions. During practice, one keeps strong eye contact with the opponent while at the same time watching the
opponent's body. Offensive and defensive movements are straight and to either side with more circles than angles.
Ultimately, the mind, body, and sword must come together as one.
Practice develops excellent concentration and mental focus and
concentration, which in turn results in stronger cognitive perfor-
mance and study habits. One will also gain tremendous internal and
external strength overall, and a substantial increase in shoulder, arm,
and hand strength. This strength leads to improved confidence,
harmony, and inner peace.
16
파과 장 Bagwa Chung (Chinese Style)
Bagwa (Bagua or Pakua) as a martial art is based on the theory of continuous change in response to a given situa-
tion. It is an internal form of Traditional Moo Doe that sharpens reflexes and cultivates the understanding of
one’s mind and body. Bagwa Walk is a special, circular walking position derived from the movements of various
animals. The Oom Yung line of Bagwa consists of 360 techniques that encompass many different offensive and
defensive positions. Bagwa training enables you to move your body like a coiled spring, smoothly and lightly, but
with tremendous speed and power. This form includes offensive and defensive movements that develop both
internal and external strength.
Practicing Bagwa focuses positive chi (energy) within the body, and redirects and removes negative chi. Correct
practice, therefore, harmonizes and centers one’s chi, and mind and body. Also, through proper training, an indi-
vidual is capable of properly directing his or her chi. However, if done incorrectly, the individual may improperly
direct his or her chi to only certain parts of the body, result-
ing in an imbalance of chi that ultimately adversely affects
their body shape. Bagwa is a powerful way to increase one’s
Nae Gong (stored internal strength.) Certain masters of Tra-
ditional Moo Doe use secret Bi Bong herbal formulas to ac-
celerate their Bagwa development, quickly balance their chi,
increase their Nae Gong, and harmonize their mind, body,
and spirit.

… Moo Doe is principally a healing power. Everything in nature is made up
of energy in one form or another. Through specific exercise and movement
techniques (Myung Sang, U Dong Myung Sang, and Nae Gong) proven
over centuries, the energy around us can be utilized to enhance vitality and
wellness in extraordinary ways… Our modern modalities of “wind, fire, and
water” are the body’s magnificent respiratory, thermal, and circulatory sys-
tems upon which all health and strength depend. Through the harmony and
balance of these systems, life can be lived to the fullest.

십 팔 계 Ship Pal Gae (18 Weapons) Chinese and Korean Style
Ship Pal Gae encompasses eighteen different weapons. The proper steps of Ship Pal Gae practice at an intermediate level include: - The weapon and body combine as one - Breathing and movement harmonize together with control and coordination - Practice speed is a combination of fast and slow body movements. Ship Pal Gae forms are soft and hard, and the weapon and body must move in coordination with proper timing. If the weapon moves one direction and the body moves in another direction, it will eventually result in injury. Move-ments are usually offensive, and strong eye contact is maintained with the opponent. The hands and feet are used in all different directions, with both angles and circles.
Someone can practice with any weapon to understand the correct movements, but to specialize in a weapon at the intermediate level, the weapon must be properly matched to the practitioner’s body. For example, it is improper for someone with a small body to specialize in Chung Yun Doe or Chong Bong. Rather, a Doe or Kom would likely be more suitable because smaller weapons are easier for a smaller person to handle.
These forms develop flexibility, coordination, strength, and speed. With proper practice, one also develops accuracy of the weapon strike, strength in the hands and fingers increases, and overall body control and reflexes improve. Proper weapon training utilizes unused muscles and areas of the brain not normally used in daily activities. This increases one’s overall capability and potential, and can significantly slow down the deterioration (aging) of the mind.
When a practitioner achieves harmony with the weapon (the practitioner and the weapon become one), it results in tremendous benefits for both the mind and body. Throughout history practitioners have reached enlighten-ment through proper weapons training; these forms and techniques are taught to qualified practitioners.

Instructors have titles based on the rank they have achieved, which is, in turn, a reflection
of their skill, ability, and martial arts knowledge. In the Oom Yung Doe school environ-
ment, practitioners refer to one another by title and first name. For example, “Instructor
David” or “Head Instructor Sarah” (you can see a full list of Oom Yung Doe instructor
titles below) Titles are used out of respect for the martial arts lineage, and to keep the
learning environment formal and focused.

Training is meant to be challenging, interesting and fun. It has
always been a challenge to follow the path of correct Moo Doe
knowledge. But it is from challenges that we learn and grow, as
we strive to reach our full potential. It is the desire of all the
instructors to see you reach your goals, and your full potential
mentally and physically.
20
THE PATH TO BLACK BELT
Some students begin training with a desire to reach an Oom Yung Doe Black Belt while others have
no initial interest in a degree, and simply want to try out martial arts. Whether you train for a few
years or a few months, if you apply yourself, you can improve in numerous ways.
Achieving the level of 1st Degree Black Belt in Oom Yung Doe signifies a strong core of mental,
physical, and spiritual understanding that will enhance every aspect of your life. It is a gift that you
give to yourself - a gift that you will carry with you throughout your life, and one that you will forev-
er be able to tap into.
On the Path to Black Belt, you will be challenged. Your body will change. Your mind will change.
Your daily life will change – all for the better. When you start to realize the benefit of those changes,
you will naturally start to challenge yourself more, and you will grow. That is the power of Oom
Yung Doe training.
Achieving 1st Degree takes about 2-3 years. A student needs to attain skill with core eight martial
arts curriculum movements, and similar to a college degree where a student chooses a major, in
Oom Yung Doe a student needs to develop at least one specialty. Specialty training is taught directly
from the Master Level Teaching Team through Chung Hyungs, or key forms.
THE 4-LEVEL TRAINING SYSTEM
The 4-Level Training System
The Oom Yung Doe training system features multi-
ple levels of instructors divided into four teams,
ranging from 1st Degree Black Belt Instructors all
the way to traditional martial arts Masters who have
learned directly from Grandmaster “Iron” Kim. A
true traditional martial arts Master is extremely rare,
and one of the unique aspects of Oom Yung Doe
training is that every student, regardless of skill level,
has an opportunity to learn directly from the Master
Level Teaching Team.
21
INSTRUCTORS REGIONAL TEAM NATIONAL TEAM MLT
The 4-Level Training System—Each team is responsible for a different aspect of a students training.
Each team’s role in student training can be broadly described as follows:
MASTER LEVEL TEACHING TEAM SEMINARS
Master Level Teaching Team Seminars For Personalized Specialties
Taught directly by the MLT TEAM to all levels of instructors and students
The Oom Yung Doe line of martial arts presents a unique possibility – the opportunity to learn directly
from a traditional martial arts Master, or Chong Sa Bu. This level of instruction is rare in East Asia, let alone
the United States. It is the fastest way to develop remarkable levels of skill and ability.
Oom Yung Doe teaches 360 key foundation movements that develop the mind, body, and spirit. Each key
form (Chung Hyung) taught by the MLT Team has a high concentration of key movements that unite a stu-
dent’s mind and body and advance skill and ability at a much faster rate than rudimentary techniques alone.
In traditional martial arts, practitioners throughout history have specialized in various skills. With MLT Team
Seminars, you can too. As a beginning student, you can enroll in a Chung Dan Hyung or other MLT Training
Seminar. Each Chung Dan Hyung movement emphasizes different abilities, but regardless of what you
choose to focus on, if you practice, you will improve your overall condition dramatically.
22
CHUNG DAN HYUNG SEMINARS
CHUNG JHOONG HYUNG SEMINARS
Chung Dan Hyung forms are the most powerful, completely balanced short forms that can be ab-sorbed by all body types and conditions. Because Chung Dan Hyung forms are completely balanced, the movement will become your own and your mind and body will come together as one. These forms are required for entry into State and Regional Level Traditional Martial Arts tournaments. Following the tradition and correct path (Chung Doe) of true Martial Arts throughout the centuries. It is vital that these forms are taught by a true grandmaster and/or master who can clearly demon-strate their incredible level of skill and ability. Championship Coaching, taught by the Master Level Teaching team, incorporates centuries proven
training methods that enable one to achieve the highest level of Traditional Martial Art skill & abil-
ity. As a follow up to Chung Dan Hyung Seminars, the championship coaching takes your form and
development to a much higher level by teaching you how to practice the movement taught in the
Chung Dan Hyung Seminar according to your body type. This level of instruction can only be
taught by a qualified Master and allows one to fully "digest" and absorb the movement; providing
the fastest way to achieve a medal in a Traditional Martial Arts Championship Tournament.
Chung Jhoong Hyung builds upon an existing Chung Dan Hyung. The training consists of three
components. Review of the Chung Dan Hyung, new movements will be passed, and, advancing the
skill and ability of the practitioner to fit the Chung Jhoong Hyung to reality.

Traditional Moo Doe Weeklong Seminar programs will consist of specific balanced movements that
allow the practitioner to receive the most benefit from the environment. These movements are very
powerful and can be quickly absorbed allowing the practitioner to obtain a tremendous condition in
just one week’s time – leading to improved health and longevity.
10 Unique Environments
Each natural environment has its own unique energies and benefits for training allowing the practi-
tioner to develop the full benefits from the movements – inner strength, connection of mind & body,
and fully harmonizing the body.
There are approximately 10 different ideal natural environments, including the ocean, mountains, for-
est, and desert all of which have many variable combinations of vegetation, ground elevation, etc.
Over the centuries, true masters chose to practice in specific environments in order to absorb different
energies and the methods/techniques that fit these specific environments, thereby allowing them to
achieve master level.
Oom Yung Doe will continue to teach only the Chung Doe line of Traditional Moo Doe. Currently, in
the United States, only a small number of schools are able to teach and demonstrate Traditional Moo
Doe skill and ability. Students will see live Traditional Moo Doe demonstrations with explanations
from the Master Level Teaching Team. They will clearly experience the incredible strengths of Tradi-
tional Moo Doe movements. What you see demonstrated in these movements are the skills and abili-
ties you can achieve, allowing you to reap lifelong benefits.

NAE GONG: THE ROOT OF TRADITIONAL MOO DOE SKILLS AND ABILITIES
Traditional Moo Doe Grandmasters and Masters have been known throughout the centuries for their
demonstrations of incredible skills and abilities. The root of their amazing strength and incredible
youthful and healthy condition comes from their ability to increasingly build their core root of Nae
Gong. Nae Gong, the root of "chi" is the invisible, internal strength that gives life to all humans. Nae
Gong development is centered deep in the abdomen and is built upon with each technique. Deeply
developing Nae Gong for unlimited chi energy can only be achieved through proper techniques which
are unique to Traditional Moo Doe or Traditional Martial Arts. Nae Gong Foundation Training
(consisting of 72 techniques: 36 internal and 36 external) requires internal and external techniques to
be practiced consecutively and with proper breathing techniques. Each individual's Nae Gong devel-
opment differs, because everyone absorbs the proper techniques differently based on their condition.
These lessons are included at the Weeklong, through Certified Training - for 2nd Degree and higher,
and through Total Body Conditioning programs.
WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT TO YOU?
Did you ever wonder why, even as you watch your diet and exercise, it gets increasingly harder to
maintain a strong, healthy and balanced condition as you age? This is what many accept as normal ag-
ing and/or common body problems. The average person reaches their "prime" strength in their 20's;
this strength allows one's body to naturally heal itself from any detrimental activity that has adversely
affected the body's condition. Past this point, the body increasingly loses more of its natural ability to
re-balance itself as each year goes by. Within 3 to 4 months of neglecting muscles, or improper devel-
opment, an off-balanced condition causes damage to the body’s natural cycle of chi. Thus, creating a
compounding, negative affect or a negative downward spiral, resulting in muscle loss and the buildup
of toxins. Initially, this causes a loss of muscle and joint strength, and in the long-term it can result in
the decrease of organ system functions, loss of range of motion, along with many muscle and joint
related problems; all of which lead to increased internal weakness and ultimately a decreased overall
condition.
With the development of Nae Gong, balancing your body and allowing the body’s natural cycle to be
healthy can reverse the negative downward spiral and greatly slow down this aging process. By devel-
oping Nae Gong you can have the self-harmonizing abilities to rebalance your body with amazing self-
healing affects, which will greatly benefit your health and your daily activities for the rest of your life.

The theory of Bagwa (also referred to as Bagua or Pa Kua) encompasses the nature of the universe,
the relationships of the energies therein, and the relationship of Oom and Yung (yin and yang).
The Oom Yung line of Bagwa consists of 360 techniques that were derived from nature’s elements
and the movements of various animals. Bagwa training enables you to move your body like a coiled
spring, smoothly and lightly, but with tremendous speed and power. Bagwa develops the ability to
strike in multiple directions. This training develops very powerful offensive and defensive movements
that develop both internal and external strength.
Bagwa, literally translated means “eight trigrams;” the trigram symbols represent all natural phenome-
na. The Bagwa diagram is the result of the ancient binary system (Oom and Yung), and is derived
from the I-Ching, the ancient Chinese Book of Changes. Bagwa as a martial art is based on the theory
of continuous change in response to a given situation. It
is an internal from of Traditional Moo Doe (or Tradition-
al Martial Arts) that sharpens reflexes and cultivates the
understanding of one’s mind and body. Just as Feng Shui
is used as a tool to enhance positive Chi (energy)
throughout one’s external environment, Bagwa, through
movement, increases the circulation of positive Chi with-
in the body, in order to naturally harmonize one’s mind
and body.
BAGUA PROGRAM
IRON HAND PROGRAM
Iron hand is the development of incredible
strengths in the muscles, bones and joints
of the hands and wrists. When desired, the
muscles can become like hard rubber and
the hands and wrists can be utilized in un-
expected offensive and defensive situations
with full coordination, flexibility, strength,
and accuracy in striking. Once developed,
the striking power is like a hammering piece of iron. During daily activities the muscles of the hands
and wrists are very soft and have a very comfortable feeling, each finger is roundly shaped and the
skin retains a smooth, radiant texture. Historically, practitioners that have reached a higher level of
Iron Hand have been known to demonstrate this ability by leaving their handprint in solid stone.

At a traditional martial arts tournament, practitioners show their skills
through demonstrating forms or techniques learned. Unlike many
competitions, where participants compete against one another, in a
traditional martial arts tournament, each contestant is judged against
the centuries-proven standards of proper martial arts development.
Because of this, there may be many gold medal winners at a single
tournament, or there may be no winners at all, depending upon the
skill levels demonstrated.
The goal of a tournament is to challenge yourself, or “win over your-
self.” By improving yourself, you change your reality for the better.
Since all participants are competing to improve themselves, and not competing against one another,
the atmosphere at a tournament is one of comradery and support.
In Oom Yung Doe, you will learn powerful forms that can change your skill and condition quickly.
But you can only attain benefits through practice – you must digest what you are taught. Students
that enter, practice, and compete in tournaments take on a personal commitment to improve and
benefit accordingly.
Tournaments have multiple levels: Local, State, Regional and National. Any student can enter into a
Local Tournament with specific forms learned in daily group lessons. To enter a State Tournament, a
practitioner needs a Chung Hyung level form, learned from the Master Level Teaching Team. To
compete at levels above the State Tournament, participants need to qualify.

Knowing yourself comes from testing and challenging yourself. A test is a tool with which you can learn about
your strengths and weaknesses. Once you have identified these areas, you can work toward improving them.
Through this process, you gain a better understanding of your capabilities, which leads to improved confidence.
Confidence is the key to unlocking your potential. It builds self-respect and helps you manage adversity. Skill
and ability are important, but in order to accomplish anything, you must have the confidence to act decisively
using these skills and abilities. Insecurity leads to indecision, and indecision can turn success into failure. The
confidence you gain through testing yourself will stay with you and serve you throughout your entire life.
On the Path to Black Belt, a student tests seven times. During test preparation and the test itself, instructors help
students evaluate strengths and weaknesses, and review progress. Upon passing a test, a section of the student’s
belt is dyed black, signifying the progression of skills attained. Upon passing seven tests, the practitioner’s belt is
completely black - a 1st Degree Black Belt. This belt system is a 1500-year-old tradition. Originally, a student's
belt would blacken from their sweat during many hours of earnest practice. The gradual darkening of the stu-
dent's belt is symbolic of the effort and concentration a student uses in their practice, and of the increased skill
and understanding gained as a result.
With steady attendance, a student’s First Section Test (first test) usually occurs about four weeks after training
begins. Test fees and Testing schedules are posted in your school – ask your instructor for more details.
