 Chairman's Address

   Hyun Jin Moon
Chairman of World Tong-Il Moo-Do Federation

"We have to teach Principle which is unified philosophy. The forms must be the substantial expressions of this philosophy.

That's why it is important for TIMD to know Wonhwa-do, Jujitsu, Gracie Jujitsu, and Judo …etc.

Through TIMD you have to bring unity between mind and body, cultivate spiritual side, and teach the philosophy. You have to create forms as the expressions of the philosophy.

In this era, the youth go to martial arts for wrong reason.

Chinese martial arts are spiritual. We need hard style, too. Under the philosophy, all martial arts should be unified. Every champion of martial arts is internally centered. They have proper unity between mind and body, and their minds are focused.

I like martial arts because of discipline. That's why we can educate, witness. There is a lot of potential here."
