Kim's Tae Kwon Do was founded by Grand Master Hong Sik Kim in the early 1970s. Kim's Tae Kwon Do is taught in the traditional point style or "non-contact" format. Training is considered "traditional" insofar as it emphasizes rigid stances, hand techniques, kicks, and (usually the hallmark of Tae Kwon Do) jumping kicks. It is also considered "traditional" because our forms were created by General Choi Hong Hi, the founder of modernTae Kwon Do and the International Tae Kwon Do Federation (ITF).
