A highlight of the day was the demonstration of Pal Gae, Oom Yung Doe's signature foundational form. Pal Gae focuses on developing coordination, strength, flexibility, and power through movements that engage all major joints of the body. Its practice builds the kind of balanced structure and endurance that students carry into both martial arts and daily life.

Oom Yung Doe looks forward to participating in future festivals and continuing to share the strength and tradition of its training with the wider community.
