Umschlagtext

THE FIGHTING WEAPONS OF KOREAN MARTIAL ARTS
BY IN HYUK SUH AND JANE HALLANDER
In the late 1950s, In Hyuk Suh organized and sys-temized Korea's scattered martial arts techniques into a single system. He called it ,,kuk sool won," or Korean national martial art association. Kuk sool won rapidly grew in Korea, finding favor not only with its countrymen, but also with visiting American servicemen.
Twenty years later, after receiving requests to take his new martial art to the West, In Hyuk Suh established the kuk sool won headquarters in San Francisco, Calif. Word Spread fast about a Korean martial art that could be all things to all people. Whether it was self-defense, weapons training, mental or physical conditioning, every aspect of the martial arts was covered under the umbrella known as kuk sool won.
In his first book aimed at the general public, In Hyuk Suh examines the topic of Korean weapons, induding: the favorite weapons of Korea's early warring factions; royal court weapons; and kuk sool won staff and sword forms.
This is the long-awaited work from the grandmaster of the world's leading traditional Korean martial art system
