YONG MOO DO - Korean martial art

Hi, my name is Gil known as Mr. Viagra haha

Weather is heating up in Toronto. It is hard to stand for me +0+;;

Sadly, I have only a month left in Toronto
I have mixed feeling :(

Today, I would like to post about martial art

I have done martial arts since I was a middle school student

I might have wanted to be stronger than others haha

I was continuing doing martail art, so I ended up to go university with martial art

(2nd person from left - when I was doing Hapkido)

I used to do Taewkondo, Hapkido, Kendo and Judo, etc.
Among many martial arts, I was impressed by Yongmoodo
I felt It looked very dynamic and passinate, so I chose it as my major

Today, I am going to post about my major, 'Yongmoodo'

(Right - Mr. Viagra, Gil)

Yongmoodo, literal mean is Dragon Martial art(龍武道)
Uniform color is green
It is not familiar for even Korean people,

becuase it is quite new martial art

(YONGMOODO in Yonin Univ.)

Yongmoodo was created by 5 professors in 2001 in Yongin University

(Yongin University in Korea)

It is mixed with diverse martial arts' strengths, but

in my humble opinion, main martial arts are Taekwondo and Judo

(Yongmoodo)


Its demonstration is very awesome and astounding
It is consist of self-defense, competition, situation play, etc.

Yongmoodo competitions are held more than 5 times a year
Yongmoodo is getting popular with people
No matter how old and what gender

(Yongmoodo is getting popular)

I was also a member of demonstration team
We practiced a lot to spread Yongmoodo to people

(Both are me ;) jumping~)

Yongmoodo demonstration team go to other countries every year
I also went to San Francisco in 2008 when I was 1st year in University
It was really good experience, and it is priceless memory

(Demonstration in LA)


A lot of countries are getting interested in Yongmoodo
especially Indonesia
Yongmoodo has been selected as an Indonesian military martial art officially
Indonesian armies are being trained with Yongmoodo

(in Indonesia)

Every year, people come to Korea from other countries to learn Yongmoodo

How is Yongmoodo? Is it interesting?
In my modest opinion
Yongmoodo is amazing martial art among the martial arts which I have done
If you want to learn Yongmoodo, come see me to learn it
I will teach you for free if you want haha ;)

I am proud of my major, 'YONGMOODO'
I hope it will become a worldwide martial art in the future
