[![Kummooyeh International Logo](https://rockholdkarate.com/images/svgs/kummooyeh_intl_text_color.svg)](https://kummooyeh.org "Kummooyeh International")**Sharpening Mind, Body, and Character** – Rockhold Karate teaches the Korean Sword Martial Art of Kummooyeh, the way of the sword. Rockhold Karate is a proud member of [Kummooyeh International](https://kummooyeh.org "Kummooyeh International") and also a founding member of the [Texas Kummooyeh Association](https://www.facebook.com/TexasKummooyeh/ "Texas Kummooyeh Association"). Kummooyeh, also called Kumdo in short, is composed of many types of training methodologies, such as meditation, basic movements, sword patterns, cutting, sparring techniques, and Korean traditional archery. Each type has a different purpose for developing Kummooyeh students. It is derived from the ancient art of Korean swordsmanship and is also a unique martial art developed from the ancient elite warrior class, who dedicated their lives to the study of martial arts and the protection of their country. The techniques and movements of Kummooyeh are beautiful and dynamic, with a balance of speed, power, and accuracy, but have a clear deadly purpose. Kummooyeh, like other martial arts, requires discipline and a dedication to training. A new student begins with learning the basics such as etiquette, different postures, stances, and footwork, and how to properly block, swing, and cut with a sword.
