August 2022 - Sun Bae is often asked by parents, “at what age can my child start training?”. Some parents may dream of raising the next Taekwondo Olympic champion, whilst children may imagine themselves as ninjas or superheroes.
July 2022 - Presently, there are many martial art schools offering different disciplines such as Taekwondo, Hapkido, Karate, Jujitsu, Kung Fu and Kumdo (just to name a few). At Sun Bae Korean Martial Arts you will find Taekwondo, Hapkido, and Kumdo.
July 2022 - It’s time to start martial arts. This is a sentiment we find that many will experience, often from different ages and backgrounds. Why? Perhaps it is curiosity, perhaps need. There are many varied reasons why we start martial arts.

Kumdo (Korean Sword) Cutting Action: at one of my centres Indooroopilly, Brisbane, Australia. This cut is a double cut. The second cut is on the mat as it is falling. We used a thin mat of bamboo (approx 6cm), which allows the mat to propel off the stand and fall to ground quicker. The speed of the cutting is about 0.4 of a second to complete both cuts...
...this is really good training for my golf swing speed actually.
