Kom Do

Kom Do means the way of the Sword. Beginning level practice begins with the bamboo version called the Kom Do Chea. Kom Do Chea training is necessary to prepare the practitioner mentally and physically before he can learn the movements that teach him the way of the sword. Once a foundation is developed then the practitioner moves on to wooden sword known as the Kom Do Muk. Kom Do Muk training teaches the student the way of the bladed sword known as the Kom Do.

Once a certain level of skill and ability is achieved through the practice of a Kom Do Muk the practitioner then begins to learn with a live blade (Kom Do).
