Our teacher is Grand Master Lim, Hyun Soo, 9th Dan promoted by Founder, Choi, Yong Sul. We pride ourselves on being of direct lineage to Founder, Choi, Yong Sul through
Grandmaster Lim. Grand Master Lim studied with Founder Choi the longest of any HKD
student in Korea - 19 years. Nine of those years were special private lessons. Our group
journeys to Korea to Grand Master Lim's Jung Ki Kwan to practice and learn Jung Ki. We
then disseminate the original HKD teachings to our students locally, throughout the U.S.,
and internationally. We are particular in preserving the integrity of the techniques.
In 2005 & 2007 Grand Master Lim came to the U.S. for Jung KiI sponsored Hapkido &
Kuhapdo seminar tours. His hosts were Master Michael D'Aloia of Jung Ki Kwan New Jersey
and Master Sheryl Glidden of Jung Ki Kwan Maine. Master D'Aloia and Master Glidden will
be hosting his 2010 U.S. Jung Ki Hapkido & Kuhapdo seminar tour.
When becoming a member, you can expect a great deal of support from the Jung Ki masters
and instructors. We will help you learn the Jung Ki Hapkido and/or Kuhapdo (sword)

to learn and incorporate Jung Ki Hapkido and/or Kuhapdo into their schools. We are
particular in preserving the integrity of the techniques therefore we have two membership
levels (Affiliate School & Full Member School.) Contact Master D'Aloia (201) 320-4067 or Master Glidden (207) 831-1885 for further information.
