| What is CTSD? |
 |
| Practical and Traditional |
| Only the most practical and best is good enough. |
| After perfecting various aspects of Martial Arts, a new association was formed in 2002 with the aim of combining the modern thoughts and traditional training. The association has as it's core the traditional Korean syllabus of Tang Soo Do and has complimented this with the introduction of weapons, forms applications, pressure point knock outs, energy transmission and locks and restraints, all of which are designed for practical usage in possible everyday situations, without neglecting the traditional side of Tang Soo Do. This also creates a greater understanding of the weapons and how to defend oneself against using any variety of weapons. |
