Seminars

In the spirit of "Tang Soo Do" Moo Duk Kwan, which is to stop inner and outer conflict, I conduct Self-Defense Seminars on Personsal Safety. A top priority of most people who enter a Martial Arts studio is the desire to learn Self-Defense, this will most likely involve learning kicks, blocks and punches. Additionally, I stress the importance of learning the proper Mind-Set which often times is the key to Servival. Adapt to your environment, Improvise and Overcome!

WOMENS'S SELF-DEFENSE it's about feeling Safe and Confident in everyday Life.
