From Alexy, HK Instructor in Moscow
Thanks to Grandmaster Kim Jeong Song
I was strengthened in my conviction that the Way of the Sword is a movement towards knowledge
and continuous improvement of techniques and myself, and a result of the demonstrations is
the essence of my training.
A championship and any kind of competition in Haedong Kumdo is not the desire to win
over the opponent at all costs or the demonstration my superiority over him,
this is not a perception of the partner as the enemy and rival. On the contrary,
this is the possibility for my spirit to win over the situation,
and the appreciation to the sparring-partner for the chance to test myself
and to evaluate my abilities in a simulated situation.
