Dr. Nam K. Hyong is a recognized authority on self-mastery and martial arts. Over the past 30 years he has developed programs specifically designed to maximize your success.

Grandmaster Nam K. Hyong, founder of the P. S. Systems of Martial Arts, has trained students for more than 30 years. Recognizing some of the drawbacks of a competitive sports-oriented philosophy, he spent 12 years searching for a better way to teach students. His research led him to study under Harvard University Professor David McClelland, a recognized authority in the field of achievement motivation, and under Dr. Richard Bandler, founder of Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP).

Grandmaster Hyong’s students benefit from the achievements of a man who has devoted many years to academic studies as well as martial arts training. His efforts and commitment were recognized by president of KukkiWon, the World Tae Kwon Do Federation headquartered in Seoul, Korea, with a special commendation.

As a guest lecturer, Grandmaster Hyong has promoted his teaching methods to Masters of the martial arts throughout the United States as well as Mexico, Germany, and Korea.
