What is Gumdo?

Gumdo, also known as Korean swordsmanship or Kumdo, is a martial art that emphasizes the use of the traditional Korean sword, known as the "katana." While it shares some similarities with Japanese Kendo, Gumdo has its own distinct techniques, forms, and philosophies. It's a martial art deeply rooted in Korean history and culture, making it a fascinating and enriching journey for those who choose to explore it.
