Zen martial arts
Shim Gum Do combines Zen meditation with martial arts forms.
Zen martial arts classes are offered through the Shim Gum Do system.

Ongoing classes and meditation sessions are available, along with a residential training program at Shim Gwang Sa, the Mind Light Temple. The American Buddhist Shim Gum Do Association is based at the temple, which is also home to the World Shim Gum Do Association. The organization offers meditation sessions and Dharma talks, sometimes with demonstrations of Shim Gum Do. Its temple and training activities are in Brighton, a Boston neighborhood.
