The Moo Duk Kwan was founded by the late Grandmaster Hwang Kee in 1945. After the Korea war nine major Kwans were formed. In 1955, President of Korea asked that all the Kwan's unite under the name of Taekwondo. At this time Hwang Kee resisted. In 1960 he renamed the art Soo Bahk Do. In the 60's Moo Duk Kwan grew to become 70% of the practitioners in Korea. ​

DISCUSS MASTERY OF SELF
"Practice, practice and more practice. I cannot emphasize the importance of practice enough."
​
"Practice is like a tree growing in the forest. As we age our bodies slow down and we can weaken. But if we continue to train as if we are novices, our skills become like the rings on a tree, ever growing and reinforcing our bodies and minds. We will still grow old, but we will not weaken."
