Haedong Kumdo

[Rapido]

Hi to all:

This is my first time using this forum and I have to say I am delighted to have found it.

I practice Haedong Kumdo under a Korean Master for some time now. Unfortunately, his english is not very good and we are having some trouble with the curriculum for some of the other students.
If there is anyone out there that knows of a site or a book that deals with curriculum specifications for this particular style please, PLEASE let me know, especially up to shodan.
Description of the Sang Soo Gumbop would also be invaluable.
In addition anyone that holds rank on this style that speaks good english I would love to correspond with.
One more thing, does anyone know if this style is taught anywhere in Ontario, Canada?

Thank you so much.

Rapido

Doesn't look like you're getting much of a response, my friend. Sorry about that. I can't help you, myself, but I wanted to encourage you to keep posting!

You might also try a search on google, or asking on the usenet group
rec.martial-arts.

Some of their regulars can probably point you in the right direction.

Well, I am in fact a Kumdo Instructor at Kim's College of Martial Arts, and have trained under Master M.H. Cho at The Ohio State University Haedong Kumdo Club. I can tell you right now that ssang soo kum bup translated means double-hand sword form. For my students, my Grandmaster has made up an informational terminology and cirriculum packet to use at my discretion. If you would like, I will gladly send you one, but I'm afraid I cannot help you on learning them if you do not already know them. However the offer for the packet still stands. Do let me know how your program is going, and I offer my help if you should ever need it. Haedong Kumdo is new to this country and it will be entirely our fault to let it seep through history.
Best of Luck to you.

Haedong Kumdo is new to this country and it will be entirely our fault to let it seep through history.
Oddly enough, it is also new to Korea.

BTW, this thread is 3 years old.
