Blue Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 I will for sure. I cant say when positively, but i'm excited to meet him. Here's a blast from your past: I did speak to someone at the school last night, the forms they teach are Tae-Geuk and Chung Bong. Which you know were developed by Master Jay Hyon, Dr. Haaland's instructor and taught at MNTKD along with the Tae-Geuk and Palgwe forms. Read a little more here: http://www.tigerconsulting.org/forms.htm There are other articles online. As usual tread carefully, as happens so often, if something seems to good to be true, it usually isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KickChick Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 That's great info KC, thanks. ....Tae-Kwon-Do is, for lack of a better analogy, a quilt of many different parts of cloth. I called the school that GM Ro started here and he still teaches many of the classes. I'm going to drop by and check it out. You're welcome ... I'm glad you found it interesting. Not too many people are aware of the history of the kwans ..... Yes good analogy indeed. There are many styles within the style of Tae Kwon Do. Please come back and tell us about the school where GM Ro teaches! I love the last paragraph in Frankovich's article.... how many "Modern" TKD'ists are aware of the origins of traditional Tae Kwon Do???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niel0092 Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 Chung bong forms... wow. Those were always my favorite but we rarely did them aside from Chung bong 1 and 4. Very cool. "Jita Kyoei" Mutual Benefit and Welfare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kchenault Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 Okay, I finally found out who our school is associated with. It is ITF, through the late Grandmaster Choi. Grandmaster Jung, Woo Jin is the instructor of my instructors. He does however have his own branch of the ITF called the ABA, American Blackbelt Association. He has been for the last decade or more been trying to unite the factions of TKD into one body again. You can research his story at the following link: http://www.jungstkd.com/story.htm I hope everyone finds this interesting. Ken ChenaultTFT - It does a body good!

KickChick Posted February 20, 2003 Share Posted February 20, 2003 I was Ken I'm kinda glad this thread was started because at least students are now looking into the lineage of their own schools. It is interesting to find out who your master instructor was a student of..... Any more findings from others??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dekan Posted February 22, 2003 Author Share Posted February 22, 2003 As I've stated in other threads, I am looking at a couple classes to get back into MA again. One of the Instructors pulled out a diagram that looked like what you might see for a "family tree". It showed himself, with his black belts he'd trained below him. It showed upline from him, the Master that he got his black belt from, and I think it went back to the Master, that his master got black belt from, and all the other black belts under each. Got to be tough keeping track of all of that, I would think.

It is interesting to find out who your master instructor was a student of..... Any more findings from others??? Right, Kickchick. I am wondering about my instructor's lineage. In Tang Soo Do, I can trace my instructor's lineage all the way back to Hwang Kee. But I'm very "iffy" about my TKD instructor. He claims to know or studied 4 arts. Which isn't a problem. A lot of people do. But he never mentions any of his instuctors names. Except one. I only know his last name. He is a Korean master by the name of Ng. Yes, Ng. That's how ya spell it. I seen a pic of him, because it's on the wall of the dojang. I don't know his rank or anything. It's kind of frustrating to me. Laurie F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karatekid1975 Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 No, but thanks I know his whole name now. It's Tony Y.H. Ng. I will do a google search on him Edit: I did and found nothing. Anyone know how to varify someone's rank in the WTF? Thanks in advance. Laurie F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
