                                                          The words "San Kil" are Korean for "Mountain Path".  What does a mountain represent to you?  What type of terrain do you think you encounter on the way to the top of a mountain?  The mountain path represents challenges that we all face in life and must persevere to overcome.  This philosophy is represented in the style's logo or "Kwan Gi" (shown to the right). 

                                                          San Kil Tang Soo Do was founded on May 30, 1996 by Kwan Jang Nim David Sgro.  The style of San Kil (Mountain Path) is based on the classical marital art Tang Soo Do (China Hand Way).  The mountain path represents challenges that we all face in life and must persevere to overcome.  The term "San Kil” is an old Korean cliché that means “when there is a mountain in front of you, find the path and overcome it.”
