I noticed and I care, I just do not know anything really about Kung Fu so I had nothing to say, that would help.
Looking for some real info.

S_L if you would have bother to read my post he stopped by and gave an invitation to me to come by and try it out. I still like to know about people I train with. I guess I'm funny about these things. I tend to believe my own eye's and ears, but he claims some arts or styles that I really know nothing about. I do not go to nieghborhoods without first seeing if that is where I belong and the same goes for other schools.
As far as My own training I never question myself and nobody that truely knows me does either, I have been around the block a few times and believe me I know who is real or is'nt by the time I train with them for five minutes.

LOL! That is awesome... Nope, not that insulted. Just kind of irked in a "C'mon Dude!" sort of way. I know that as long as there are martial artist people teaching for the sake of others and taking the time to pass something of quality on, there will be other peoples who will try to pass on something half-concocted with the hope that they will be remembered.
The sad part will be that they will be remembered as "oh that guy..." I believe the Sopranos said it best... "Fuhgitaboutit!"
Anyway...If these guys were half as warrior as they claim they would come give me a hand so I can get home and go back to being a Kung Fu Hobo."
Thanks for the chuckle CuongNhuka, Appreciate it...

Much Love for our friends brandishing the British Colors. I believe they are in a different spot than we are but if I see one I will tackle him with your regards!
So has anyone contacted the owner of this unique martial enigma and invited him to inform us about his brand of "Mu Do?"
Best regards,

Yea like I believe you a softie.
Back to the topic...
Did anybody have a look at the video on his website (look in the "SBJD" menu)? The techniques demonstrated appear to have a strong Chinese influence. Some of the partner drills involving pushing - pulling back and forth, using various types of hand and arm movements, are typical in traditional Hapkido schools.
Some of the techniques in the photo gallery appear in mainstream Hapkido in one form or another.
The "Sam Bup" part of the name of the art refers to "three methods"... which is curious, given that he cites rank in four styles.
I don't see anything obviously fraudulent on his website, other than that questionable photo where he appears to be levitating (???). In fact, it looks pretty legitimate to me. Just looks like he's created a hybrid art by combining techniques from the four arts he says he holds rank in.
Terry, have you considered visiting his school to watch an adult class? Nothing to lose, right?

I am interested in hearing what you think.
I had time to look around today and I found the following
Bulmudo
http://www.bulmudo.org/
But it is of little help unless you read Korean
A translation form a German wikipedia page so take it for what it is worth
Bulmudo (kor. 불무도, often Bool Moo Do "), also Seonmudo (kor. 선무도, often Sunmudo or Sonmudo) is a rare, almost unknown Temple martial art from Korea, the Seon (Chan / Zen) Buddhist monks in the Golgulsa - temple and some other temples practiced. Bulmudo is a direct descendant of Shàolín Quánfǎ from China. Bul stands for Buddha, Mu Do for military and Mu Do for displacement.
From here
http://www.experiencefestival.com/a/Korean_martial_arts_-_Styles_of_Korean_martial_arts/id/1557229
Sonmudo/Bulmudo - Korean arts passed down by the Buddhist temples and mostly preserved until today

Your welcome Kroh. Got a question for yah, you may have already answered this and I didn't notice (but feel free to answer again), are in Iraq as a soldier, civilian, or contractor?
He's legit. Sam Bub Jung Do is a spinoff of the Billy Bob Junk Do fighting system. Go's back thousands of years.
OMG, I read your post and nearly spit on my computer from laughing so hard.
My friends son is in this class and at first I was very skepticle. Then I went and watched a class last week, he is very, very knowledgeable about his art. He's very strict and makes it clear that you will EARN your belts and ranks they will not be given. As far as the rankings for the Kung Fu and the Mu Do that's just a system to keep up with progress. Either way the guy's been doing it for 40 years and it shows. I was skepticale also until I saw him blocking punches at his face and chest with his feet!
I'm going again Tuesday to watch the adult class again and get a better understanding. I'm also looking into Krav Maga, but for me this seems to be a better fit. I like that he combines Hapkido in with the Kung Fu and the Mu do which is the Shaolin Munk stuff. He really focuses on all aspects of bringing together mind and body and a focus from what I've seen. My buddy who is trained in boxing and BJJ is going to take this guy because he's so impressed. His son has been in it for 6 months now and so he's seen most of the training and likes it a lot!

That is great but why does he teach in Korean and wears a Dobook instead of traditional Hapkido or Kung fu. Interesting because everyone we know have left his school for they did not see his teaching to be credible. I personnally do not know him and I see in your profile you are from Dallas, that is a long drive for training since there are alot of great schools in the dallas area. I hope your training goes well and keep us posted on the outcome. Best of luck and remember to kick and punch.
P.S. can I ask one question how does he block a punch to the face with a kick since the guy punching would be really to close for him to get the kick off except it was a demo and pre arranged.

I am in no way an expert on Hapkido certificates, but the "logo" in the center of the certificate is that of the World Kido Federation, but it says it is from the Korea Hapkido Federation. The Korea Hapkido Federation is actually a group who broke off from the World Kido Federation, so it seems strange that a certificate would have both federations represented.
