Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan

Traditional Korean Martial Art

Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do has been providing professional martial art instruction in the Korean martial art of Soo Bahk Do® since opening its doors in the early 1980’s. Our goal has been to provide quality martial arts instruction to all those interested in training.

Internationally certified instructors at Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do provide instruction in the Soo Bahk Do® Moo Duk Kwan® martial art system created by Kee Hwang in Seoul Korea in 1945. This traditional Korean Martial Art teaches effective self defense skills while emphasizing strong core values. Instructors at Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do provide students with a rewarding, multi-cultural training experience in the Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan martial art system which has been forging healthy bodies, strong minds and indominable spirits since 1945.

Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do is also certified by the United States Soo Bahk Do Moo Duk Kwan Federation, a 501c4 non-profit organization regulating the instruction of the Soo Bahk Do® martial art system in the United States.

Regular training in Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do classes helps develop healthy, confident and mature individuals who learn how to anticipate and prevent conflict before it happens as well as how to respond effectively should prevention or avoidance be unfeasible.

Most conflicts that require some form of self-defense (bullying, hazing, mugging, etc.) target an individual who does not have “backup” in the form of team mates to assist them nor are the circumstances of such assaults a “game” for points, rather they can be matters of life or death and they can be over long before any authority figure is aware that they are occurring or has an opportunity to intervene. Truly, self defense is an individual act, not a sport or team activity.

Preparing oneself to be capable of effectively responding to serious conflict situations without the assistance of others requires disciplined training and personal intent that goes well beyond sports and team activities and the instructors at Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do are uniquely qualified and certified to deliver this specialized training.

Unlike sports and team activities, the proprietary training programs offered by Lomita Park Soo Bahk Do focus on developing the maximum potential within each individual by emphasizing personal responsibility, self-reliance, independance and continuing personal growth and achievement.
