    This description is a well intended effort, but inaccurate in several key specifics. For authoritative information, simply go to the Cha Yon Ryu HQ website: www.kimsookarate.com

    Cha Yon Ryu ("Natural Way") is an eclectic, fairly new martial art founded in 1968 by Kim Soo of Houston, Texas, who remains Director of the system. Tae Kwon Do contributes kicking techniques, strong stances and direct, linear strikes and blocks, as does Shotokan Karate. With the study of movements from Okinawa te (Okinawa), the Cha Yon Ryu practitioner starts to add techniques with some angularity to his/her repertoire, and eventually progresses to the fluid, circular movements of Quanfa Gongfu. Hapkido is the martial art from which are drawn defenses against chokes, grabs and armed attacks, as well as various throwing and falling techniques.

    Students strive to fulfill The Dojang Hun (Training Hall Oath): Seek perfection of character, Live the way of truth, Endeavor, Be faithful, Respect your seniors, and Refrain from violent behavior.
