Tradition Continues
Happy US Anniversary to Chun Seung Won!
November 5th, 2026, will mark the 45th anniversary of Chun Seun Won in the United States!
The storied histories in Korea and China go back for centuries. Grandmaster arrived on our shores November 5th, 1981 in order to share and teach the lessons of his Master’s and all the great Masters that developed and contributed to our treasured traditions. March 2022, Grandmaster returned to his beloved Korea and to the mountains that forged his knowledge and skills. The contributions made cannot be measured. The value is impossible to quantify.
Master’s contributions required immense dedication and sacrifice. Thank you Master for your dedication and sacrifice. Thank you for your preservation of your family’s traditions and the traditions of the great Masters and Philosophers. Your willingness to share these teachings and your belief in your Disciples, Instructors and Students, thank you. I know the personal cost and impact as a result of your dedication and sacrifice.
These teachings are an essential mission.
The world requires a reminder and a reset on what is really means to be “a good life practitioner”. Humanity is out of balance. We need to ensure we contribute to being “a light house in the storm”. In this chaos of life, our teachings are guiding principles to help restore balance when balance is lost. It’s a good reminder that the true enemy is Ego. The true enemy is Self. The only person anyone can truly conquer is “Self”.
A very happy US Anniversary to Chun Seung Won!
Best wishes to Master as you continue your journey in Korea. Master and our traditions have impacted me in every way that a person can be impacted. Mentally, Physically and Spiritually, I am and we are all better humans.
Sincerely,
By Head Instructor Clayton Moore
Head Disciple and Head Instructor for New Mexico
