Viera Soo Bahk Do, established on November 3rd, 2012, offers classes in Soo Bahk Do (Tang Soo Do) Moo Duk Kwan, a traditional Korean martial art founded by Grandmaster Hwang Kee, on November 9, 1945.  Soo Bahk Do translates as “Hand Strike Way” and signifies the technical side of the art.  Moo Duk Kwan translates as “Martial Virtue (or Honor) School” and signifies the style or philosophy that is studied.  It is a well-rounded, self-defense martial art that promotes such values as discipline, respect, confidence, flexibility, courage, among others.

Our study focuses on three main areas of training, namely, External (technique), Internal (proper breathing, tension & relaxation), and Spiritual (strong intent and confidence).
