AOC Members Manual

The American Order of Combat – Bu Do Kwan Member Training Manual is a comprehensive 150-page guide designed to preserve the history, traditions, standards, and training principles of the Order and our foundational systems. It serves as both a reference and training resource for students as they progress through their martial arts journey.

Inside, members will find information on AOC history and lineage, martial arts terminology, rank requirements, basic and advanced techniques, forms, self-defense, physical fitness standards, warrior philosophy, traditions, and the principles that define Bu Do Kwan training. More than a handbook, it is intended to help every member understand not only what we practice, but the legacy and values behind it.
