Tae Soo Do®
The martial
art of Tae Soo DoŽ was created as the undergraduate program to, and sports
version of Hwa Rang DoŽ. Since the Hwa Rang DoŽ curriculum is very advanced
and complicated because there is so much learn, it was often difficult for
an individual without previous martial skill training to progress through
Hwa Rang DoŽ. The Tae Soo DoŽ syllabus is designed to build a foundation of
physical skills as well as proper attitude for the nonexperienced practitioner.
This program helps the student understand the fundamentals, basic mechanics,
and philosophies inherent in martial arts.

Note: Before Tae Kwon Do unified, KongSooDo and TangSooDo(SooBakDo) had an organization name for a short time called the Korean TaeSooDo Association. This name is no longer use by TaeKwonDo, and the meaning of this TaeSooDo is the "way of body and hands". However, the meaning of modern Tae Soo DoŽ is a martial art name that means the "Way of the Great Hand" or the "Way of the Warrior Spirit". The Tae Kwon Do and Tae Soo Do® have no relation.
