Welcome To The American Dragon Korean Martial Arts Blog!

America’s #1 Martial Arts Family Education Centers. Don’t Settle For Less!

Welcome to the American Dragon Martial Arts Academies. My name is Master Mi Yi and I would like to tell you a little about why we are undisputedly America’s #1 Martial Arts Family EDUCATION Center. To begin with I will tell you a little about myself. I am a direct decendant of the last King of Korea, Sejong Yi who was the head of the Yi Dynasty until 1911 when my country was invaded by Japan. I am also a direct decendant of Korean Admiral Soon Shin Yi, the inventor of the world's first metal battleship called the "Turtle Ship". I hope that students will understand that for me owning a martial arts school is not a business. It is a 2,000 year old family tradition that I am proud to carry on. I am the only woman to have ever received Master certification in Taekwondo, Hapkido and Shimkido, three of Korea's best martial arts. We Teach Traditional Korean Martial Arts.

THE TRADITIONAL KOREAN MARTIAL ARTS OF TAEKWONDO, HAPKIDO AND SHIMKIDO YOGA POWER BREATHING

The American Dragon Martial Arts Academies teaches the classical forms of Korean martial arts, Taekwondo - which is considered to be one of the linear forms of martial arts. We use straight-line techniques, rather than the soft forms which tend to be circular flowery impractical forms as seen on TV’s “Kung-Fu.” Taekwondo is the ancient Korean military art of self-defense, and is recognized as a more effective martial art than Aikido, Judo or Karate because is uses both the hand and foot techniques in combination and is easier to learn. The history of Taekwondo dates back over 2000 years ago when it was first used by Koreans to defend their country against invaders. Since then Taekwondo has evolved into something more than self defense, exercise or even a sport. Because it is a philosophy of self-improvement, self-control, and respect for others it has become a dynamic way of life. Taekwondo has become popular in the United States since the 1960’s when American G.I.’s brought it back from Korea. Taekwondo has become so popular and accepted that it is practiced in 116 countries and the sport form became an Olympic event in 1988.

Hapkido, is Korea’s dynamic self defense art. Our Hapkido instructor is one of the few licensed instructors in this country and the only officially licensed Hapkido instructor in Lake County. If self defense is one of your reasons for joining, then Hapkido is a great choice. Non-lethal personal protection for yourself and loved ones is one of the primary reasons adults across America have started training in Hapkido.

That is what you are looking for, Isn’t It?

American Dragon Martial Arts Academies Student Creed As I mentioned, an American Dragon Program is more than self-defense or exercise, so before I explain the benefits that you will receive from our program, I want to share with you the American Dragon Student Creed, which summarizes our school’s philosophy.


  • I will develop myself in a positive manner.
  • I will use what I learn to protect myself and others.
  • I will never be harmful or abusive.

ACHIEVE PHYSICAL FITNESS AT ANY AGE!!!
Our unique program is the best self-defense program available, helping you achieve the highest level of mental and physical health and conditioning. An American Dragon program is unsurpassed for getting you or your child in top shape. Regular training here will: * Improve athletic performance by improving conditioning and reflexes. You’ll be able to do any activity longer, faster and with more power. * Increase strength. Our unique techniques and exercises will make you physically stronger and tougher. Many everyday tasks will become easier to do because of this increase in strength. * Increase Endurance. Your body will become more efficient from your first workout on, and the longer you work out the more efficient it becomes. You’ll enjoy your life more because you will have more energy and vitality. You’ll just simply feel better.

Increase Flexibility. Flexibility will occur naturally due to the stretching movements that are done in each class. Flexibility is important because it helps and prevents lower back problems.

Improve Appearance. Regular exercise firms and tones muscles, burns more calories, and helps reduce your appetite. These factors will give you a trimmer, firmer, and healthier appearance.

At the same time that you are learning self-defense, you will look better and feel better. Isn’t that incredible?

ACHIEVE MENTAL FITNESS
In addition to all the fitness benefits you will receive, your Martial Arts workout will enable you to develop confidence, improve self esteem and reduce stress and tension. As you develop your self defense skills you will be able to cope with daily problems and situations. The sense of accomplishment and pride that is developed will carry over to every aspect of your life. You will look different and feel different about yourself. Additionally, you will be expanding your knowledge base by learning and mastering the ancient skills of Korean martial arts.

BENEFITS TO ADULTS

The physical fitness and mental benefits are applicable to all students, but adults obtain unique and special benefits from our program: * Regular exercise will make you look better, feel better, and live longer. Our program includes exercise that will firm and tone your entire body - particularly the hip and thigh area. Korean martial arts are famous for their dynamic kicking techniques, which naturally provides a heavy concentration in that area. The aerobic component of each class with help you control your weight by burning extra calories.

Most people think of self defense when they think of martial arts. They aren’t aware that martial arts training is an ideal way to get in shape. After they discover the overall conditioning effect, they begin to understand that martial arts offers extraordinary value and advantages that cannot be achieved from the more traditional methods of getting in shape; for example - health clubs. Here, while you are experiencing an improvement in fitness, you also are learning new skills which impact all areas of your life. At the same time it is an economical and efficient use of your time. While others are pursuing their fitness activities, you will be getting in shape and learning self defense - All at the same time!

The discipline, concentration and physical skills that you will gain will lead to greater self-confidence and self-esteem. You will have the self-assuredness to cope with the hassles and aggravations that can occur in today’s hectic, frustrating and sometimes dangerous society. This “New You” will result in a more capable, “together” person, at home, at work and at play!

BENEFITS TO CHILDREN
Self defense is often the 1st reason why parents enroll their children in martial arts. It should be the last. Martial arts is more than a course in kicks and punches. It can be a catalyst to promote confidence, goal orientation, calmness and concentration. Furthermore, today’s children are the most poorly conditioned and out of shape segment of our population. So when a child participates in our program they learn at an early age that regular exercise should be a lifetime experience, not just a temporary fad. The increase in health and confidence leads to a more alert confident child, this is what helps them get better grades in school. Because martial arts students are able to focus better, thus becoming attentive and absorbing more of what the teachers at schools say. That would make us all much happier wouldn’t it? And can you imagine a more wholesome, safe, drug-free environment than here - building muscles and character with instructors serving as positive role models. You will know what your child is doing and where they are at with our program. Your anxiety and worry will be replaced with the comfort of knowing that your child is learning valuable skills that will make them happier, healthier and more successful in life. Learning self confidence, self-esteem and self-respect.

Child Developmental Psychiatrist, Sheri Medina said: “All children should study martial arts because it is a practical course in assertiveness. They learn how not to be bullied, but also why not to be a bully. A child’s confidence from self-defense training also gives them a more secure sense of identity and helps them become leaders.” She also said that: “Loving parents are beginning to place their children in year round martial arts training because it has distinct advantages over team sports and other youth activities. In a martial arts program everyone gets to participate. Developing at their own pace with No concern about riding the bench or making the team. While some girls will develop balance and fluid movement from Dance class or gymnastics, boys and girls both can learn this from martial arts. Plus dance and other youth activities cannot offer the practical advantage of self-defense training.”

We also like to add to his comments that Martial Arts class is NEVER boring. They will get a chance to learn new techniques in each and every class! We all want the best for children don’t we? There is no better investment that we could make for our children than enrolling them in an American Dragon Martial Arts Academies Program. I think that is easy to see isn’t it?

The special skills that you will learn in BBC classes have been handed down from Master to Master for over 2000 years!

INTERMEDIATE BELT LEVELS

The Classical Taekwondo Uniform: DoBok: The uniform worn by all Korean martial arts students is called a DoBok. This word has a deep meaning to Taekwondo students. The first part of this word is “DO” which describes the martial arts “Way of Life” in Korean. The second part is “BOK” which is the word for traditional Korean clothing. So in essence, “DOBOK” is the clothing for our way of life. The white color of the beginners DoBok dates back to its meaning in ancient Korean times. The color white represented pureness of thought and deed. Many GrandMasters say that when they wear white, they can feel a reverence for life and the importance of living as a good citizen. Wearing a clean uniform in good repair to class shows your understanding of this philosophy. Looking your best, will help you feel your best.

Adult Self Defense: HaeMuKwan Hapkido




HAEMUKWAN HAPKIDO: SELF-DEFENSE WITH A TWIST!

The Korean self-defense art of Hapkido has origins that date back to a Korean Monk named Sosan Daesa who invented the art of joint manipulation and throws to defeat the invading Japanese army some 700 years ago. These techniques have been passed down from Master to student over the centuries.

Master Mi Yi holds the rank of 5th Dan Black Belt from the prestigious Korea Hapkido Federation. Master Mi Yi was the first female to ever graduate from the Hapkido Masters Course in 1998. No other instructor in Lake County holds this credential. If you want to learn the dynamic techniques of Korean Hapkido then Master Mi Yi is the best choice in this area.

Call 352-536-5063 today to join us for Fun, Fitness and Self-Defense.

WHAT IS HAEMUKWAN HAPKIDO?

The principles of HaeMuKwan Hapkido have been the secret living tradition of Korean self-defense, health and longevity for centuries. It's graceful fluid like movements emphasizes proper breathing techniques, posture and balance. Resulting in complete concentration and relaxation for the practitioner. No other Hapkido system applies the principles of Ki and circular force to this extent. HaeMuKwan Hapkido harmonizes the body's natural flow of Ki energy with the mind to achieve "Do".

BENEFITS: For Students: Long Healthy Live, Life Long Physical Fitness, Self-Defense Based Techniques Training, Indepth Studies Of Healing Skills and Advanced Martial Arts Philosophy.

Discovering HaeMuKwan...The Korean Martial Art Of Self-Development When morning covers the Korean sky, crowds gather in parks, university gardens and nearby temples: executives with briefcases, laborers in cotton, people young and old performing flowing exercises. Movements are silently synchronized, postures exotically simple, faces sublimely focused. They are practicing Ki-Kong breathing, the 3000 year old discipline brought over by Buddhist monks visiting from China. Embracing philosophy, psychology, meditation, physical exercise and martial arts, the discipline, argue its more ardent practitioners, can prevent everything from high blood pressure to tuberculosis and diabetes. Ki-Kong breathing is the first level of physical development training in the HaeMuKwan system. Our first four health building Ki-Kong breathing exercises are the foundation of HaeMuKwan, they are called DanJun HoHup and develope an individual's Ki or internal energy. Those who used to roll their eyes at such HaeMuKwan concepts as "Um and Yang" and allowing your energy, or Ki to flow unchecked are now looking beyond such abstract definitions into the heart and soul of this ancient concept. Bottom line, HaeMuKwan could be very effective in reducing stress, improving balance, and providing a good workout as well. While proper breathing and stretching are an important part of the HaeMuKwan system it is just the beginning. HaeMuKwan also employs self-defense training based on centuries old principles of non-resistance and circular force. HaeMuKwan, when done correctly this workout makes one feel settled, relaxed and rejuvenated all over.

WHY CHOOSE HAEMUKWAN HAPKIDO FOR HEALTH, SAFETY & FITNESS?

No person who is professionally involved in any aspect of maintaining health and physical fitness can doubt the genuine need for a realistic program for physical fitness. Based on disturbing statistics of general poor health gathered by various state and national health agencies, it now seems the opinion of physicians, physical education instructors and other authorities that some sensible program for physical fitness must be initiated on a national scale. The Federal Government, well aware of the problem, has taken certain preliminary steps in this direction. However, it is the contention of the author that there is a serious error in the concept of the physical fitness program as it is currently being outlined and that unless this error is rectified the program cannot possibly succeed in its national intent. The basic mistake which has been made is to promote the idea of physical fitness in such a way that it has become associated in the minds of most people with vigorous activities, the emphasis being on the usual wearisome calisthenics, body building through jumping and running, the use of weights, hikes, sports. Because physical fitness is now associated with these types of activities, the majority of our population has physically and psychologically excluded itself from the entire idea! The truth of the matter is that only a relatively small segment of the population will exercise with calisthenics for more than a short period of time (especially without constant supervision), because this type of exercising is tiring and simply not enjoyable. An infinitesimal number of people will consider conditioning themselves with the use of weights or through regular training or hiking. The people who play tennis, swim, bowl, play basketball, baseball, football, etc., have been doing these things in the past, enjoy them and will in all probability continue to do them without having to be encouraged. But only relatively few people indulge regularly even in these sports. Furthermore, it should be noted that we cannot properly consider weekly or Bi-weekly participation in bowling, tennis, golf, etc. to be a method of truly remaining fit. The truth of this statement will be evident as we proceed. For a national physical fitness program to be of real value, it must be sufficiently comprehensive to include all segments of the population regardless of age, background or vocation, and must help to condition all systems of the body, i.e. not only the muscular and the circulatory, but the respiratory, nervous, endocrine and other aspects of the body. In addition, such a program must be enjoyable and stimulating so that one wants to exercise if for no other reason than that he or she feels a sense of well-being after exercising, not exhausted or strained as is so often the case with calisthenics or sports. The system which meets all of the above requirements is the age-old physical movements and exercises comprising the system of HaeMuKwan. Korea's ancient form of physical training that includes energizing Ki-Kong breathing, relaxed stretching and dynamic tension muscle toning. The various routines of HaeMuKwan exercises which are offered can easily be modified and extended to apply to every segment of the population from small children to the senior citizen. One needs only to give the HaeMuKwan system a fair trail, according to the most ardent practitioners you will begin to feel more energy, have better flexibility and an increase in overall health. Now add to this the practicle life saving self defense skills of HaeMuKwan Hapkido and you can easily see why this is a perfect system for self improvement that can be a lifelong journey.

Students of the KHFH are expected to learn the Code of Ethics and apply the Code both in and out of the Dojang. These points should be emphasized in life as well as in Hapkido. Application of this Code will assist each student in developing a better character resulting in a better person.

I will seek the best in all people and attempt to make them feel worthwhile.
I will maintain a positive mental attitude and convey it to everyone I meet.
I will refrain from making negative statements about anyone.
I will strive to be the best at whatever I do.
I will use my mistakes as lessons and utilize this knowledge to achieve great endeavors.
I will always promote love, happiness, loyalty and respect in my home, family and extended martial arts family.
I will demonstrate respect for all people in authority.
I will remain loyal to my country, family and friends; obeying the laws of the land at all times.
I will be open to the ideas of others; however, I will remain steadfast in my own beliefs knowing them to be accurate and true.
I will share in the success of others as thought it were my own.
I will never violate the trust which has been given me by using my skills to initiate violence.
I will utilize my skills to defend the defenseless, my friends, my family, my honor, my priniciples and myself.

HAEMUKWAN HAPKIDO

Movement for Life: HaeMuKwan Hapkido has evolved from the traditional arts of self defense and natural healing of Korea to a training for health suited for people of every age - for the healthy as well as for disabled people. The Importance of Movement for Health: Nowadays, many people have lost the link to nature and a natural way of life. This leads to stress, unsteadyness, aggression or depression, lonelyness, fear of aging, and psychosomatic problems. However, everyone has a natural ability of self healing within him-/herself, which can be reactivated by special training. By practice of a balanced training of body and mind we can recognize ourselves as part of nature and the universe and thus become conscious again of our original strength. HaeMuKwan Hapkido is movement for life, the harmonization of heart and mind, body and Ki, the omnipresent life force. The development and growth of humanity is the central issue of HaeMuKwan Hapkido, rather than success in sports or self defense against external foes. Clarity of mind and a loving heart are characteristics of our humanity. With HaeMuKwan Hapkido, we want to guide men and women along the path to natural life, the path of peace, balance, and harmony with mankind and nature - a path open to everyone.

Elements of HaeMuKwan Hapkido HaeMuKwan Hapkido The name means essentially: The New Beginning School of Martial Arts. The HaeMuKwan Hapkido teaching method is based on five elements: Confidence, Respect, Patience, Humility, Nature Son: Son means inner calmness and relaxation. By attentiveness and intensive internal concentration a new sensitivity can be reached which helps to control the ups and downs of life. By this means Son can be applied effectively in daily life. Danjun Hohupbop: Intensive breathing to and from the lower abdomin (Danjun) concentrates energy slightly below the navel, strengthens the entire body, and clears up heart and mind. Ki-In-Bop: Developed from ancient techniques to strengthen body and mind, Ki-In-Bop has become a most efficient modern exercise program in HaeMuKwan Hapkido. The combination of conscious body movements, Ki breathing techniques, and internal concentration helps to revitalize the body, heart and mind in a most natural way.

As you can see, the American Dragon Korean Martial Arts HaeMuKwan Hapkido program is the best Hapkido program available in America. Why settle for less? Call 352-536-1122 to join today and get a FREE uniforma with enrollment.
