Do Shim literally translates as "the way of the heart"; it is the martial path to centeredness. We aim to find balance in this hectic world through the rigorous training of the body, mind and spirit. Utilizing stretching, conditioning drills, kicks/strikes, locks/throws, breathe control and meditation, we help our students find what athletes call the "zone." What Zen calls "mushin." What artists call "inspiration." The coming together of every aspect of yourself into one penetrating force. In this state of being the seemingly impossible becomes possible.
Do Shim Martial Arts is a community-based academy founded on the principle that all people are entitled to the benefits intrinsic to the study of martial arts. Do Shim integrates the latest advancements in character and life development, kinesiology, martial arts and philosophical tradition. As teachers and students, we are committed to living socially responsible lives, encouraging the traditions of respect, loyalty, family and courage.
