Yu-Sool

Yu-Sool is a unique combination of the "Soft" Avoidance Defenses found in Aikido, and the "Hard" Attacks found in Korean Karate. Throws, or Mechigi, Grapples, or Kuchigi, and Assaults, or Kuepso Chirigi, are all integral parts. A master will approach combat cautiously, attempting to first evaluate the opponent's style before taking any action. From that point on, the philosophy of Yu-Sool will dictate any actions. That means that if the attack is strong, one must receive it gently, and if the attack is gentle, one must counter with power. Training is available only at two martial art retreats in rural Korea, one in the South, the other in the North. Each time a student enters the school, it is for a one year commitment. And at the end of every year, all students are evaluated to determine whether it is worthwhile for their training to continue. Costume: Karate outfit with white top and dark pants. Stance: Front stance, with one leg advancing and the other behind, arms are held out in front of the body with one hand clenched in a fist and the other held open.​
