Haidong Gumdo is a Korean sword style that teaches
“The way of the sword”
Class training consists of:
• Loosening up
• Meditation (qi gong)
• Basic sword strikes, blocks and stances
• Forms (hyungs)
• One steps
• Calisthenics
• Sparring
• Cutting
• Candle extinguish.
The grading schedule is very similar to Traditional karate. There are 10 gup (color belt) levels before black belt.
White-10, Yellow-9, Orange-8, Green-7, Purple-6, Blue-5, Brown-4, Red-3, Red with white stipe-2, Red with black stripe-1, Black with white stripe-Candidate for black belt.
To begin, there is a $100 sign up fee. This reserves your place in class; this also purchases your Haidong Gumdo uniform and practice sword.
