So "Kicking Around" and "Just for Kicks" are out because they do not sound Korean? How about "We Dun Kick" or "We Kick High", they sound Korean?

Take a look at the history of Korea, Wikipaedia has a good page on the subject, and see if any names sound good to you.

Hwarang mudo kwan
With Hangul: 화랑 무도관 With Hanja: 花郞 武道 館
Which would rougly translate to Hwarang Martial Arts School

Of course, from what I can see, there are a ton of schools called 'Korean Martial Arts' out there.

How do you type in hangul and hanja characters in your posts?

How do you type in hangul and hanja characters in your posts?

I copy and paste. I made a document of KMA and JMA terminology sometime ago and I try to update it as I learn new things or if I find that something is incorrect. I just copy and paste from there.

How do you type in hangul and hanja characters in your posts?

I don't know how you do it in Windows (but IME is the term to search for Input Method Editor I think).

On a Mac it's very easy - you can add virtual keyboards, so I have a Han'gul virtual keyboard configured as HNC Romanja (a Korean keyboard most suited to westerners typing). It also pops up a little window as an overlay to remind you which keys do what.

Doesn't help me learn Korean, but at least when I need to type odd words I can
