Instructor Jesse Peters
Jesse Peters started his martial arts training at age eleven when he met Grand Master Sang Un Jin who was teaching at a small school in the Santa Cruz mountains. Jesse's teacher brought "Ho Kuk Mu Sul" (Traditional Korean Martial Arts) to the United States from South Korea were he had been teaching elite U.S. military. The intense training and exposure to eastern principals regarding self-defense, breathing, meditation etc. forever changed Jesse's life and set him on a path to spread the teaching of Grand Master Sang Un Jin through the art of Ho Kuk Mu Sul.
