Master / Instructor Course
Haidong Gumdo is the fastest growing Martial Art in the world today. With over 1.5 million practitioners in over 50 countries. This rapid progression has been since 1996 when the world Haidong Gumdo Federation was established. Prior to this Haidong Gumdo was formalised as style by Grand Master Jeong Ho Kim in 1961. This formalisation of an ancient style was made to make the traditional Korean sword art more accessible to the general public. From 1961 to 1996 Haidong Gumdo grew rapidly in popularity through out Korea, prompting Grand Master Kim to internationalise the style.
In 1999 Master Jung Il Oh, Now Australian Grand Master, brought Haidong Gumdo to Australia.
