Tang Soo Do Tang Soo Do was founded November 9, 1945 and is both a hard and soft style deriving its hardness from the styles of Soo Bahk Do and Tae Kyun (style not related to Tae Kwon Do) and its soft, flowing movements from a Northern and Southern Styles of Kung-Fu. Grandmaster Hwang Kee, founder of Tang Soo Do, says the art is 60% percent Soo Bahk Do, 30% percent Northern Kung Fu and 10% percent Southern Kung Fu. The style gets its arts of self-defense from Soo Bahk Do and Tae Kyun, its fighting principles from Northern and Southern Chinese Kung-Fu, and its "moral guidelines" such as philosophy from the Tao, Lao Tzu, and Confucious. The style was created as a traditional style, meaning that the training is primarily directed towards the practice of self-defense, as opposed to its younger sister style of Tae Kwon Do that was created as a sport with its training primarily directed towards competition. Tang Soo Do practitioners strive to always better themselves both outside (physically) and inside (spiritually). To this day Tang Soo Do remains traditional and continues to maintain the high standards of a traditional martial art. Class Times Monday
