granmasterchen Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 my instructor was 6th degree last time i saw him, but that has been a few years now. He teaches MDK TKD a style very similar to shotokan and tangsoodo. The assistant instructor is a second dan i believe, he never chose to continue testing, he also has a background in some types of kung fus...not sure which.My kung fu instructor for mantis and tiger im not quite sure of his rank or his instructor....i know them both but we never did a class room type training it was always informal one on one usually....but we still trained. That which does not destroy me will only make me stronger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
