It is especially important to Jungki Kwan Midwest that the original teachings of Dojunim Choi are taught unaltered - these are the techniques taught by Grandmaster Lim and the Jungki Kwan.

Membership in Jungki Kwan Midwest is not based solely on paying a fee yearly.  Membership is about training, and service.  Once a member is accepted, they will have the opportunity to train with Jungki Masters in the US and abroad.  In addition, members can expect support from the organization to help promote and support their Jungki Kwan Programs.
