Kumdo at USC

At Kumdo, the sword plays a really important role – you’ll practice both a single and double sword!
There are training sessions at different levels.
Work your way up from the white, all the way to the black belt.
With your martial arts membership you can join all martial arts trainings.

Which membership do you choose?

MARTIAL ARTS YEAR
you’re stuck with us for a year, after which you can cancel your membership monthly.

MARTIAL ARTS FLEX
a little more expensive but a lot more flexible, this membership can be canceled monthly from scratch.

15x ENTRY (buy it here)
15x entry to a sport in the passe-partout, to be used within 6 months.

Making a reservation and checking in

  • You need a reservation for every visit to USC.
  • Book a training using the booking button above or via this martial arts page.
  • You can make a reservation 6 days in advance.
  • You can have 3 active reservations for the upcoming 6 days. But as soon as your first reservation is over, you can make a new one. So, you can work out more than 3x a week (if there are free spots)!
  • You can choose how you enter USC: by using the finger scan or by using the My USC Amsterdam app. Download the app: Android and iOS.

Cancelling and no show fee

Booked a class, but can’t make it? Please cancel in advance.

  • Cancel up to one hour before the start of your reservation (but earlier is encouraged!).
  • Are you not cancelling (on time)? Then you risk a no show fee of €3,-.
  • Are you not paying the no show fee? In that case you can’t make a reservation/work out for 2 weeks.
  • Your no show fee doesn’t end up on the big USC company pile. Check in which sports goal we’re investing the no show fee income.

What do you learn from it?

At Kumdo, the focus lies on the harmony between sword and body. You’ll improve your:

  • hand eye coordination;
  • balance;
  • agility;
  • and focus.

Every other week, we also do Korean archery on Tuesday!

USC instructor

Dominic den Drijver is specialized in both Korean sword fighting and archery. Dominic owns the 1st Dan and works in collaboration with the Dutch Haedong Kumdo Association to upgrade the sport to a new level in the Netherlands.

Wear and gear

A t-shirt and comfortable shorts are fine for the first classes. If you want to continue practicing Kumdo, a kumdo dobok is necessary. USC has some wooden swords, but if you want to continue in Kumdo you might want to get your own wooden sword + sheath.

Passe-partout

Are you a sports fanatic? Are you interested in various sports? The USC passe-partout is the right thing for you! This membership comprises a whole lot of different sports. Kumdo is part of the passe-partout.
