Low Impact Stress Managment
Steve’s TKD, Jidokwan offers stress-management instructions through a low impact exercise developed by Grand Master Miller in 2007, known as “Jidokwan-Chi”.
Jidokwan, (Way of Wisdom-Martial Art) originally founded by Chun, Sang Sup of Korea in 1946 as one of the primary systems of Korean self-defense, which united under the direction of Taekwondo.
