Frequently Asked Questions


I'm out of shape. Will Tang Soo Do be difficult for me?

Students are closely monitored and brought along at a rate consistent with their physical and technical skill levels. It's never a competition.

Will training worsen my back, knee or other physical condition?

It has been shown in both medical publications and from students' personal experiences that training with proper supervision and instruction actually improves many physical conditions over time, while promoting an increase in general well-being. Of course, should you have a particular medical condition, your doctor should always be consulted prior to embarking on any new exercise program.

Will training help me lose weight?

Most definitely. In addition to the cardio and muscle strengthening benefits, Tang Soo Do's unique approach to using the hip to generate power means that techniques are practiced within a greater range of motion, thereby adding to the total body exercise and weight loss.

Am I too old to begin the martial arts?

Not all all. There are numerous examples of people starting late in life who have gone on to become a Black Belt. Read the following articles that are posted on the Tang Soo Do World website.

"Black Belt at 64 Years Old"

Will martial arts training promote violence in children?

On the contrary. Because Tang Soo Do is built upon respect and discipline, our curriculum provides an environment for children (and adults) to develop in a positive manner.

How many times a week should I train?

That depends on your personal goals and schedule. A minimum of thirty classes within a three month period is required for rank testing. If rank is not of great importance, then any time you can train will be beneficial for you. However, keep in mind that less than two days per week is not practical to developing defensive skills unless you can practice considerably on your off time.
