Chayon-Ryu World HQ - Kim Soo Karate
Lifestyle martial arts for longevity, fitness and balanced spirit. Established in Houston 1968.
Chayon-Ryu, a system of martial arts developed to sustain its practitioner from the inside, uses natural movements and abilities to allow freedom-flow of techniques and balanced routines. Its philosophy of non-violence enables the individual to practice daily without the need for mere speed, power, and the lure of competition. Only through patience, diligence, sweat, and an open mind ("emptied cup") can one achieve the goals worthy of a Chayon-Ryu practician.
