The study conducted with 100 male adults who are trained at Seoul Kuksundo headquarter and Chonju Kuksundo branch office from August to October, 1998. The anxiety levels were measured just before and after training for study group (N=50) and shortly before and after the resting for control group (N=50) by employing the Korean version of the Hamilton Anxiety Scale (Hamilton 1959) for physical symptom of anxiety and the State Anxiety Inventory (Spielbergar 1972) for psychological symptom. The results were as follow : There were significant psychological anxiety levels in study group but not in control group. And also there were significant differences in psychological anxiety levels between two groups(t=-12.40, p=0.000) in terms of differences between pre and post levels of study group(-3.68±5.748) and control group(1.72±5.039) but not in physical anxiety level.
