Ki Breathing Exercises

Ki is the Korean term that “internal” training revolves around.  Often described as a mysterious inner energy force, ki is the source of internal power and is tied closely to the cardiopulmonary system, i.e. breathing and blood circulation.  In order to become a proficient martial artist, one must develop ki through meditation and special breathing exercises.

As you can see, Kuk Sool Won™ covers an extensive variety of techniques and martial arts methods, yet, Kuk Sool Won™ is not only concerned with the physical methods of attack and defense but also the study of healing techniques, the development of internal power and physical conditioning.  Training in Kuk Sool Won™ also helps to instill self-confidence and self-discipline, a calm self-assurance, and the psychological and spiritual values which are traditionally associated with the martial character.  Mental and physical well-being is of primary importance in Kuk Sool Won™.
