A battle-tested samurai stands planted in the fire and ash, armor scarred, blade still raised, eyes locked forward with a calm that only comes from absolute conviction. The world around him is chaos—smoke, embers, and shattered silhouettes—but he’s unmoved, choosing the moment, the distance, and the strike with ruthless discipline. A great soldier doesn’t fight because he’s forced—he fights because he decides. It’s control in the middle of disorder, courage without boundaries, and the kind of power that comes from refusing to be dragged into anyone else’s game.
Because real strength isn’t just in the swing of the sword—it’s in believing so deeply in what you’re fighting for that the purpose becomes the armor, and every strike carries conviction instead of anger.

This is an episode of a video series I had several years ago called, “60 Seconds with Sensei”.
I am thinking about bringing something similar back showing video clips of many of the self-defense techniques in ChunJiDo. Please let me know if this is something that you would find interesting and provides value to your training. ~GMC

**THE CHUNJIDO OATH AND WHAT IT REPRESENTS**

The art of CHUNJIDO is more than a system of techniques—it’s a way of training the whole person. Like the oath displayed on the scroll, ChunJiDo calls practitioners to develop knowledge of the mind, strength of the body, and the honor and integrity of the heart. Every class becomes a refining fire: discipline is forged through repetition, perseverance is proven through challenge, and confidence is earned—not given. In that process, students learn that true skill isn’t measured only by power or speed, but by clarity, composure, and the willingness to keep improving when no one is watching.

Within the ChunJiDo organization, the tenets of respect and honor are lived daily. Respect shows up in how students listen, how they treat training partners, and how they carry themselves in and out of the dojo—humble in victory, steady in defeat, and grateful for instruction. Honor is upheld by choosing what is right even when it’s difficult: obeying instructors, supporting fellow students, and never allowing actions to bring dishonor to the association, the instructors, or oneself. In ChunJiDo, character is not separate from training—it is the training—so that every practitioner strives to become not only more capable, but also more trustworthy, more disciplined, and more worthy of the art they represent.
