In August 2000, I went to Master Koo's school for two weeks of intensive training. The workout is even better than it was three years ago. Kick boxing aerobics and jump rope are now a part of the warm up and there are more focus mitt and shield drills. Master Koo has truly created a great program for self defense training and fitness. I really enjoyed the time I spent there and look forward to returning in the future.
Commonly asked questions about Koo Self Defense training.
What is different between Koo Self Defense training and other martial arts, what are the classes like?
Answer:
Koo Self Defense training is unique because of our class training and the results we produce in such a short amount of time. Many other martial arts try to emmulate our concepts but do not put that theory into practice for their class training. All our training is designed to develop incredible hitting power and produce a great workout. We have many different types of classes and many different realistic drills.
What techniques are used in the Koo Self Defense training and how many do you
learn?
Answer:
Koo Self Defense training uses non traditional stress free movements. All of the hand techniques are based on boxing movements (hooks uppercuts, as well as elbows, and other strikes etc.). all delivered with maximum power and follow through on focus mitts and shields (the harder you hit the harder the workout). We use modified tae kwon do kicks, only kicking at the knee to stomach area on the shields, to generate maximum power.
How do you know if the training is working besides the feed back you are receiving from your instructor?
Answer:
In Koo Self Defense each student receives immediate feed back. By actually hitting targets (the mitts and shields) you will know if you are doing it right or wrong. If you do it wrong, you will hurt yourself or lose your balance.
