WOMEN'S SELF-DEFENSE SEMINAR & WORKSHOP: Mind, Body & Spirit

What is Chayon-Ryu?

Chayon-Ryu (Korean for "Natural Way") teaches natural body motion as the basis of all techniques in order to promote power, safety, health and fitness. From this system, one becomes self-confident and gains self-esteem. With these components, one is able to fight the everyday enemies, which are internal such as stress, worry, insecurity, jealousy, impatience, defeat and depression.
