"I am a Hwarang! I believe in the perfect balance of a disciplined body, a sharp mind, and an unbreakable spirit. I commit to the twin paths of knowledge and action, where my strength is guided by wisdom and my prowess is a tool for peace. I will develop myself constructively and defensively to become an ambassador of integrity for my family, my community, and my craft. I choose the right path, even when it is hard!".
For Families & Youth
We believe our training system is one of the most effective ways to support parents in raising respectful, focused, and resilient children. Our unique 8-stripe ranking systemgives students clear, achievable goals and frequent wins every few weeks — not just once every few months for a belt test.
As they steadily earn stripes in forms, weapons, self-defense, conditioning, and character development, students naturally build self-control, coordination, discipline, and perseverance. They also deeply internalize core Warrior-Scholar values such as honesty, respect, humility, and honor. Guided by the inspiring Wayfinder Squad characters, they develop greater body awareness and confidence while forming positive habits that carry directly into school performance, home life, and everyday challenges.
For Adults
For adults, our program offers a well-rounded complement to an active lifestyle. The structured stripe and belt progression provides clear milestones and measurable results, helping you build functional strength, mobility, coordination, and efficient full-body movement.
Beyond the physical benefits, consistent training reduces stress, sharpens mental focus, and strengthens the connection between mind, body, and spirit — creating a more balanced, capable, and resilient way of moving through life.

Our Curriculum: The Foundations of the Warrior-Scholar
At the School of Jeonsado Hwarang, we don’t just teach separate martial arts — we forge them into one powerful, complete system. Every class blends the best of ancient traditions to build a modern Warrior-Scholar: strong, adaptable, focused, and grounded in timeless values. Here’s what powers your training:
Tang Soo Do – Powerful Striking & Graceful Tradition
Tang Soo Do is the dynamic Korean martial art at the heart of our striking foundation. Born in the 1940s and drawing from Korea’s ancient fighting styles plus influences from China and Japan, it’s famous for its explosive kicks, crisp punches, and powerful yet graceful movements. Beyond the physical, Tang Soo Do trains deep breathing, meditation, and unbreakable character. Students develop not only devastating technique but also the mental discipline, respect, humility, and indomitable spirit that define a true Warrior-Scholar.
Hapkido – Fluid Self-Defense & Circular Mastery
Hapkido brings the art of redirection and control. Developed in the mid-20th century by Grandmaster Choi Yong-Sool and influenced by traditional Korean and Japanese systems, Hapkido teaches you to flow with an opponent’s energy rather than meet force with force. Using circular motion, joint locks, throws, sweeps, and precise strikes, you learn to neutralize threats with leverage and timing. It also cultivates ki (internal energy) through breathing and meditation, creating harmony between body, mind, and spirit — turning defense into an elegant, practical skill you can rely on in any situation.
Uechi-Ryu – Iron-Body Conditioning & Internal Power
Uechi-Ryu is the traditional Okinawan karate style that gives our program its legendary toughness and body awareness. Founded by Kanbun Uechi after years of study in China, this “half-hard, half-soft” art emphasizes powerful conditioning drills known as Hojo Undo, along with the foundational katas Sanchin and Seisan. We integrate Uechi-Ryu’s unique tension training, body shifting, and close-range strikes to build real internal power, unbreakable structure, and the ability to absorb and deliver force efficiently. It’s the secret behind the iron-like resilience you feel in every class.
Shaolin Kung Fu – Fluid Power & Animal Wisdom
Shaolin Kung Fu is one of the oldest and most revered martial arts in the world, born over 1,500 years ago at the legendary Shaolin Temple. Rooted in Chan (Zen) Buddhism, it blends explosive power with flowing grace, teaching you to move like the animals — Tiger, Crane, Snake, Dragon, and more. You’ll train striking, kicking, joint manipulation, and breathtaking forms that develop speed, flexibility, endurance, and razor-sharp focus. More than combat, Shaolin trains the whole person: humility, perseverance, inner peace, and the ability to overcome any limitation.
Hwarang Legacy – The Spirit of the Warrior-Scholar
At the core of everything we do is the spirit of the ancient Hwarang— the “Flowering Knights” of the Silla Kingdom. These elite young warriors weren’t just fighters; they were scholar-athletes trained in swordsmanship, archery, philosophy, poetry, and ethics. Guided by a strict code of loyalty, courage, and virtue, the Hwarang became legendary for unifying Korea and embodying the ideal of a well-rounded leader. Their legacy lives on in our 5 Codes of Conduct and 7 Tenets, reminding every student that true strength comes from balancing a disciplined body, a sharp mind, and an unbreakable spirit.
Ukemi – The Art of Falling & Rising
Ukemi, the Japanese art of safe falling and rolling, is one of the most valuable skills you’ll master here. Far more than just learning how to hit the ground safely, Ukemi trains lightning-fast body awareness, spatial control, and fearless resilience. You’ll learn to redirect momentum, protect your head and spine, and turn every fall into a graceful recovery. This skill builds unbreakable confidence, reduces fear of movement, and dramatically improves coordination — on the mat and in everyday life.
Together, these arts create something truly special. Through our clear 8-stripe ranking system, inspiring Wayfinder Squad and Elite Four characters, progressive weapons training (starting with the Bong staff), and weekly character-building lessons, every student experiences rapid growth in skill, confidence, and character.
