THE MEANING OF
"Songahm" means pine tree and rock. Pine
trees that grow out of the harsh environment
of rock cliffs are a testament to their strength and resilience.
H. U. Lee created Songahm forms, for students to acquire and consolidate techniques in a systematic way to become well-trained martial artists.
In addition to martial arts technique, Songahm students learn what it means to persevere, to get back up after failing, to learn to handle successes, to be confident as well as humble, to take care of themselves as well as to be courteous to others.
