During Koreas Three (3) Kingdom Era, warriors were required
to master the numerous aspects of military science. They had to
be skilled at horsemanship, bow and arrow, spear, sword, dagger,
percussion, grappling, field first aid (medicine), military strategy
and tactics. They also studied and mastered the classical sciences,
literature, religion, etiquette, dance and government. Their goal
was produce the ultimate warrior through an integrated curriculum
that embraced the S.A.I.D (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands)
principle. That is, only practice what is relevant to the task at
hand. Further, their training curriculum was open-sourced and reality
based. All of these aspects were seamlessly combined and integrated
into a coordinated system that served them during times of peace
and war.
The eight (8) pursuits (arts, styles, or disciplines) currently
under the umbrella of the International Korean Martial Arts Federation
(IKMAF) can be pursued as single pursuit or as an integrated system
(Jong Hap Mu Sool). Jong Hap Mu Sool is
not to be confused and or compared with mixed martial arts
which is a sport or a pastiche of disjointed skills. It is however,
a systematic and comprehensive integration of the three (3) main
elements of combat. They are, percussion, grappling, and weaponary.
Each style or discipline is experienced in its entirety with
concepts and principles at the core of the Jung Hap Mu Sool Curricumum.
The goal is to strive for completeness as a martial artist. The
traditional Jong Hap Mu Sool curriculum produces a
much higher class of individual and a higher caliber warrior. This
is why Jong Hap Mu Sool was chosen to represent our
entire martial arts curriculum.
