Global Martial Arts

provides you with an opportunity to learn Traditional Korean Martial Arts, Taekwondo and Haidong Gumdo. Taekwondo needs no introduction, it is arguably the most popular Martial Arts in the world. HaiDong Gumdo is a Sword Martial Arts that is rapidly spreading throughout the world. The primary objective of Global Martial Arts is to provide Korean Martial Art to New Zealand and cause positive impact on the community. The positive impact isn’t restricted only to physical well-being; we mean positive impact in mental and social aspect as well. We train the mind as well as the body and during training you will also meet students who will have same interest.

Firstly, we like to set a limit on number of students per class. This enables us to concentrate on each individual student and give them full attention so the training effects of all the students in class can be maximised rather than just a few getting all the attention.

Secondly, we create a structure and vigorously follow it to keep the learning objective consistent for all the grading. This is also good on the students as they get a very good indication of what will be taught during their grading.

Thirdly, the classes have been scientifically designed and tested suit people of all ages. Not only this, but the classes are designed in a way to cater for students that favour the sparring side and also those that favour more of the performance and fitness side. Our classes designed and well observed to ensure that students don’t get injured during practice or sparring. We are mindful that there are those who do not enjoy the rough side of sparring so we also cater for those people by carefully structuring the class to suit them.

Global Martial Arts continuously aims to be unique and improve our classes.

Global Martial Art is the Head Quarters of New Zealand Haidong Gumdo Association Incorporated. Haidong Gumdo is new Martial Art, but it has become incredibly popular around the world. So be the first few in New Zealand to get the certification from the Head Master of New Zealand Haidong Gumdo.
