     Master Park Martial Arts training is an action philosophy. It utilizes Hapkiyudo, Taekwondo, Judo, Karate, Yudo, Hapkido, Hwarangdo, Jujitsu, Aikido, TaiChi, Ssirum, Korean martial arts and other Oriental martial arts. It is designed as a non-violent art and system of complete body, mind and spirit exercises as well as being a way of life.

The philosophy of Master Park Martial Arts (MPMA) is to build a more peaceful world. To accomplish this goal MPMA begins with the individual. MPMA strives to develop the character, personality and positive attitudes and characteristics in its students that will allow them to become the kind of people that strive toward the "end goal".

MPMA training works to develop the positive aspects of an individual's personality: Respect, Courtesy, Goodness, Trustworthiness, Loyalty, Humility, Courage, Patience, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-control, an Indomitable Spirit and a sense of responsibility to help and respect others. This takes a great deal of hard training and many do not reach far enough to achieve perfection in all of these aspects. However, it is the physical, mental and inner effort which the individual puts forth that develops the positive attributes and image of both the individual and how he or she perceives others.

By helping mold an individual into a well-rounded and responsible person, MPMA instills in its students the principles that are learned through his martial arts training, thus allowing each students to pass on to others what he has learned through his personal actions.

By practicing Master Park Martial Arts, one can benefit in these ways:

PHYSICALLY – One can develop good coordination, gain strength, increase flexibility and improve cardiovascular conditioning. From all of these physical practices, one can have a strong body.

MENTALLY – One can build self-confidence, gain better judgment and improve self-control. From all of these mental disciplines, one can have a sound mind.

PHILOSOPHICALLY – While developing a strong body and a sound mind, it is appropriate to learn the valuable philosophical tools and lessons in life offered by MPMA. Among these lessons:

  • The way to be honest, always standing for justice.
    How to respect and help others.
    The meaning of loyalty and courtesy.

Incorporating these aspects into one's life will build for them the ability to be strong, to be humble, to be gentle, and to maintain self-respect. MPMA philosophy emphasizes good health, happiness, generosity and a sense of value, freedom, justice and peace. All of these inspire independence and coexistence. It is a guide for the formation of outstanding character.
