8 Martial Arts Taught As 1
Kong Su/Tae Kwon Do
The focus is on linear speed and snap. Defenses are straight up, down, in, out, and side. Offense is straight, side, back, and forward. The feet are used more often than the hands.
Aikido/Hapkido
Movements are hard and soft. Target areas are the joints, pressure points, and nerves. Close proximity to the opponent is most beneficial. Hands and feet are equally used in offensive and defensive movements.
Udo/Jujitsu
The form is soft and develops proper falling techniques without injury by keeping the body flexible, and developing coordination and strength.
Kom Do (Samurai Sword)
Through this form, one keeps strong eye contact with the opponent, while at the same time watching the opponentās body. Excellent mental and physical development is achieved through this training. The mind, body, and sword must be as one.
Tai Chi Chung
Tai Chi is sometimes described as moving meditation. The art contains movements, which are so varied that they put into play every part of the body with harmonious design and graceful patterns.
Bagua Chung
Through movement, Bagwa focuses the positive Chi (energy) within the body, redirecting and removing the negative Chi, harmonizing oneās mind and body.
Goong Bu/Kung Fu
These forms combine controlled soft and hard movements, while developing flexibility, coordination, strength, and speed. Movement becomes instinctive.
Ship Pal Gae/18 Weapons
This practice focuses on developing the mind, body, and weapons as one. By controlling body movements and breathing, Ship Pal Gae develops flexibility, coordination, strength, and speed.
Tae Guk Chung is an advanced form of Tai Chi Chung that focuses on precise breathing control. Through the proper practice of this form the practitioner can experience an increase in lung capacity while balancing and increasing levels of chi in the body, which in turn leads to a more overall balanced and healthy condition.

When are you guys going to show practical application of your art? It's one thing to choreograph, but I'd love to see you guys use your stuff practically!
Traditional Moo Doe (Martial Arts) is known as one of the best ways to reach a point of total harmony. It has been used to achieve balance internally and externally, which results in longevity and the ability to develop incredible physical, mental, and spiritual strength. The combination of correct principles and correct sequences with the proper body adjustments is necessary for this development.

Beautiful
Is there any footage of unchoreographed OYD free sparring? I'd love to see it!
ź²ė Kom Do (Korean and Japanese Style)
Kom Do movements are straight and direct, moving from one point to the other. This practice develops an acute mental alertness with strong physical power.
Repetition is spent on the basic block and attack movements to develop the physical strength in the wrist, arms and shoulders, in order to gain the speed, timing and accuracy, necessary for a clean sharp cut.
