Welcome!

The symbol of the JiDoKwan is a flower in the shape of a figure 8 within a circle. The flower signifies peace; specifically, the water lily is representative of life, health, honor, service, and luck; the circle represents love, novelty and happiness. The figure 8 represents the Korean Otogi, an object that, when knocked over keeps coming back up. Practitioners of JiDoKwan are encouraged to live the philosophy upon which the art is built, which is to spread through the continents of the world the spirit of JiDoKwan. The spirit of JiDoKwan means getting up eight times when you have fallen seven times. it means to always stand upright in all tribulations, and never give in to failure.
