MACHO Martial Arts
At
Macho, we focus on safety. We set industry
standards. We pride ourselves on quality. From
product development to the production line to
customer service, we’ve standardized our
processes to ensure quality at all levels of
manufacturing. It’s the mission our founder
Master Cho began in 1980 and it remains to be
our mission today.
 This
quality mission means that we:
-
Produce the highest quality products based on
extensive research and testing.
-
Design new products based on our own R &D
feedback as well as from martial artists
while ensuring that we exceed standards for
protective safety.
-
Ensure customer satisfaction – from our products
to the service and customer support they
need.
Macho embraces the idea of change and
evolution. Change gives us the ability to
survive in an
 aggressive
marketplace. Responding to customer challenges
and feedback spurs us to continuously evolve.
We are committed to our customers and
supporting the community in which we do
business.
Once you work with Macho and purchase our
products, you’ll soon wonder why you didn’t do
it sooner. You’ll realize why words like
“patented,” “tested,” “safety conscious” and
“innovative” define us. Each time one of our
innovations shows up in the other guy’s
product line, we just smile and say, “We
wouldn’t have it any other way.” Our customers
know they are getting products that set past,
present, and future standards for industries
that didn’t have standards before we came
along.
That’s pretty cool.

disciplines, took his ownership experience from running nine
facilities to design the iGo Figure Software. The iGo Figure

Sugar Land , Texas , located just outside of Houston. When

foundation of providing world class customer support, world
class training, and best-practices software development
techniques.

International Hapkido
Federation
The
International Hapkido Federation
uses the name Hapkido because our roots are from Choi, Yong-Sul
through Ji Han-Jae and then Chang, Young-Shil. Ji Han-Jae
(as history shows) was the person who coined the name
Hapkido and many followed this name. Ji Han-Jae had changed
the name to Hapkido because it became a way of life for him
as well as many others, not just technique. Hapkido greats
like Han Bong-Soo, Lim Hyun-Soo, Suh In-Seo, Suh In-Hyuk,
Lee Joo-Bang and many others. The founder of our
organization's instructor was Ji Han-Jae while it was still
Hapkiyoosool under Choi, Yong-Sul's direction. We were also
affiliated with Han, Bong-Soo and Myung, Jae-Nam during
those times. We became the "International Hapkido
Federation" after Chang, Young-Shil started teaching in 1960
and then opened his own school in 1968. The techniques are
still refered to as Hapkiyoosool, the art is Hapkido.
