An introduction to a lesser-known Korean martial art
Kumdo doesn't get nearly as much coverage online as more familiar martial arts, and this course positions itself as a rare, structured introduction to it. It starts from the basics, the who, what, when, where, why, and how of Kumdo, before moving into its history and equipment.
Who it's for
Beginners with no prior Kumdo or martial arts experience. It's aimed at anyone curious about Korean martial arts culture as much as at students actively training.
What's covered
- Core techniques: striking, stomping, and shuffling
- Equipment, including the jukdo, and how to care for it
- Footwork, foot positions, and targets such as sonmok, muri, and huri
- Counting in Korean and the different types of motions
- Striking progressions, from big-motion to short-motion and continuous attacks
- Traditional forms, including bongukgumbup and chosonsebup
The level of specific terminology throughout suggests a genuinely traditional, technically grounded take on the art.
