Grandmaster Song,
Kyong Sik was born 1950 in Seoul, Korea and is the current leader of the

teachings and philosophies.
At the age of five
Grandmaster Song, Kyong Sik started his formal training under his
grandfather Grandmaster Song, Keum Sool. Grandmaster Song, Keum Sool
took his grandson the mountains for seven years to live and train in
order to be the bearer of the martial arts family tradition.
Grandmaster Song, Kyong Sik was taught many areas of study including
eastern medicine, meditation, ki gong exercises and philosophy from his
grandfather. At the age of eight, Grandmaster Song, Kyong Sik moved
back with his parents to live permanently and his grandfather also moved
in to live with the family. It was here that Grandmaster Song, Kyong
Sik continued his training under his grandfather as well as his father
Grandmaster Song, Jung Soo.
In 1981,
Grandmaster Song, Kyong Sik moved to the United States. In 1983,
Grandmaster Song, Jung Soo transferred the OHTC system to Grandmaster
Song, Kyong Sik as chairman. After the unfortunate passing of
Grandmaster Song, Jung Soo, Grandmaster Song, Kyong Sik became the
acting president of OHTC.
Today, Grandmaster
Song, Kyong Sik continues to teach and pass down the OHTC teachings to
select students. Grandmaster Song's American name is Edward Song.
Grandmaster Song, Kyong Sik exemplifies the honor and tradition that
embodies OHTC. He is a living example for his students as well as the
