Details:	The Art of Hwa Rang Do is the most diverse and comprehensive martial arts system in the world. Its study integrates the mental and physical disciplines in such a way to enable the student to realize their full potential. The Hwa Rang Do Hanford Academy is under the direct supervision of nationally acclaimed martial artist Master Chuck Sanchez. Mr. Sanchez, a Hanford native, began his training in Hwa Rang Do in the mid 70â€™s. From the age of 10 years old Mr. Sanchez' father was a salesman in San Diego where he was first introduced to the martial arts of Hawaiian Kempo from a personal friend of his father. His father later enrolled him in a Tang Soo Do Karate school. After graduating from high school he enrolled in college and shortly after was drafted into the military service. Because his father and mother's brothers fought in World War II, he felt obligated to his country, the United States of America, to enlist in the service also. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps and fought in Viet Nam in 1966 and in 1968 served the remainder of his duty in the Philippines where he studied under Grandmaster Lito Lanada in the Kuntaw System where he was introduced to Full Contact Kickboxing and Eskrima. Mr. Sanchez was offered to attend Officer Candidate School but instead elected to be honorably discharged. On returning home from military duty he continued his martial arts studies in Shotokan under Master Kuriyama, Shaolin Kung Fu under Grandmaster Ark Wong, Shou Shu under Master Al Moore. Mr. Sanchez then came across the Martial Art of Hwa Rang Do and continued his studies under Supreme Grandmaster Dr. Joo Bang Lee until 2010 and continued studies with Grandmaster Yum,Ki Nam East Coast Headquarters. While Hwa Rang Do is our main art, we also are a charter school of Doce Pares Eskrima, teach Muay Thai Kickboxing and cardio fitness kickboxing.
