Yudo is a traditional military art. It came to Korea from China as a system of unarmed combat during the Koryo Dynasty. After being introduced to Japan during the time of the Hideyoshi Invasions (1592-97), it became extinct on the Korean peninsula during the latter part of the Choson Dynasty. Yudo was reintroduced to Korea, from Japan, in its modern form as a self-defense system, around 1910. In Yudo there is no attack. "We use an attacker?s own force to defeat the attacker. The harm we cause an attacker is proportionate to the level of threat with which we are confronted by the attacker."
