Phakwondo is a sect of martial art that is rather special due to its establishment through the process of study, experience and then summarization.
I- Explaining the meaning of the name Hoa Quyen Dao or Phakwondo

            It means the versatility of the universe, the evolvement of society and transformation into martial art studying. So far, the evolvement has been taking place through generations so that this sect suits man’s modern life. It – the evolvement – is realized by the study from the concentration of the principle elements of the martial art to the key elements of perfect science of the martial art. The evolvement is also based on the thinking of developed human beings with their intelligence together with scientific calculations.

            The conception of martial art in Phakwondo is based on the principles of power based on the theory of movement which transforms and operates through the determination of the trainee and the trainee himself will perform the kungfu skills at his will.

            Dao is the way which leads trainees or practitioners to the spirit of kungfutology.
            With such above-mentioned significance, a martial art student has to understand throughly the principles of kungfutology. Then he himself has the duty to develop and perfect them. Students have to manipulate the principles, not just to learn by heart. The way that students have to improve is vo cong (martial-art-force) – vo thuat (martial art yechnique) – vo chien (martial-art-combat) – vo dao (martial-art-way).

            The Phakondo's basic foundation is displayed on the badge of the vo phai (martial art sect):
