Train at home Program

Can't find a Tang Soo Do Studio in your area? We have the solution. Our Video/DVD Program is ideal for students who wish to start or continue training but don't have access to a Tang Soo Do School.

How does it work?

You will train with the help of our Tang Soo Do Instructional Videos. Grand Master Ho Sik Pak will guide you from White Belt to Black Belt. Practice at home, at at gym, at the park or on the beach. Find a training partner for your self-defense, one-step sparring and free sparring training.

How do I test for my next level?

You may test after joining the Federation. Fill out the Gup Promotion form and mail a video of yourself performing all test requirements for your next belt. You will find all requirements below for download. Additionally all requirements are explained step-by-step on our Complete Tang Soo Do Manual Vol 1 book. And there is one video for each of the steps to Black Belts, from 9th Gup to 1st Dan.

Grand Master Pak will review your video and give you constructive feedback. When you pass your test you will receive your belt and Certificate via mail.

Testing Requirements

When is Black Belt Testing?

After passing your last GUP test we will guide you towards your DAN test. You must attend Black Belt Testing at one of our Federation Schools. In California Grand Master Pak holds Black Belt Testing around May or June once a year. After passing the test you will be promoted to Black Belt during our annual Battle of LA Championship or during one of GM Pak's seminar. If you don't pass your Test you will be required to re-test until all requirements have been met.
