Freddy Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 SRKH1 sandan 1 shodan that swings by the dojo every possibility he gets, not to often tho =( Extraordinary abilities can only come from extraordinary effort
Go To Sleep Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 In my old TKD school there were about 20 of them. About 15 of them were under the age of 12.And that's why I quit TKD.
P.A.L Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Sensei is 5th dan ,there is a 2nd dan , there are some guys from different hoochi-mama ryus that sensei let them keep their black belts, funny thing is they allways show off their forms in the first class ,as soon as they see a high level shorinryu or white crane kata they never do their sloppy forms anymore.
Drithen Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Wow, at my school they have only promoted five people to Shodan in 8 years, only one has made it to sandan so far "Whatever you do, do from the heart, as for the Lord and not for others. -Colossians 3:23
greenbelt_girl15 Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 Wow! Looks like I'm the only one with no blackbelts in my dojo.My style is cuong nhu God has not given us a spirit of fear, but a spirit of love, a spirit of power, and of self-discipline.2 Timothy 1:7
cheeks Posted September 27, 2005 Posted September 27, 2005 only 1 black belt in my kwoon, my instructer. me and two others are next with brown belts.(i do Lau Gar Kung Fu) If you have just read the above message and agree with it then you may worship me as the best thing since sliced bread. Of course if you don't agree then hey, i'm a crazed lunatic and you should ignore my insane ramblings.
gheinisch Posted September 27, 2005 Posted September 27, 2005 We have a total 19 black belts in our system - Lineage below(Hanshi Leo Kozloski 9th Dan, Master Bruce Saver 7th Dan, Sensei Eric Cranston 6th Dan, Sensei Christiian Grant and Evan Frankel 4th Dans, Sensei Christian Way and Ed Harding 2nd Dans. The rest are all Shodans. The last three listed which includes myself just achieved out Shodan ranking this past June. Diane Ahmann is the first female that our Hanshi has ever personally promoted to Shodan. It was pretty exciting for both of them. We have a Black and Brown belt class where we learn a lot of new things. It's never boring. Currently we have another black belt in another style that has asked to train with us. He knows escrima and has been teaching us what he knows. It's awesome! He's a great Martial Artist and is also learning our system as well. It's a great mix. Here's a link that tells a little about our Hanshi.http://www.crossroadsnewnan.org/leo.aspI know the ones in Bold are still currently training, there may be others as well. Style:HON-SHIN-DO was born out of the Karate efforts of Masters Leo Kozloski and Bruce Saver. Senseis Eric Cranston and Christiaan Grant along with other high ranking Black Belts were the main catalyst for the birth of a new style of Martial Arts with old roots in Okinawan Shorie Ryu.Hanshi Leo Kozloski 9th Degree Master Bruce Saver 7th Degree Sensei Eric Cranston 6th DegreeSensei Christiaan Grant 4th Degree Sensei Evan Frankel 4th Degree Sensei Christian Way 2nd Degree Sensei Ed Harding2nd DegreeShodans:Sensei Victor CarellSensei Patricia WiresSensei James West Sensei Carolina Vincent Sensei Lynn Bates Sensei Bill Kerr Sensei Phill Parisi Sensei James Buzaki Sensei Will Kerr Sensei Diane Ahmann Sensei Shawn Morris Sensei Greg Heinisch "If your hand goes forth withhold your temper""If your temper goes forth withold your hand"-Gichin Funakoshi
