Although my fascination with martial arts spans a number of years it was only whilst watching my eldest daughter train in Tang Soo Do that I noticed that martial arts (in particular Tang Soo Do) was not just about ‘fighting’ but more about the etiquette, discipline, but more noticeably the family atmosphere – and this in turn made me want to join.
I started training in April 2004 and after attending classes twice a week and being put forward for every grading, I finally gained my 1st Dan black belt in January 2008 which was a proud moment, however my proudest within Tang Soo Do was seeing my eldest daughter achieve her 1st Dan and be given her black belt by our instructor, Master Green
What I enjoy most about Tang Soo Do is the continual learning within forms, techniques and applications of these techniques. I also enjoy teaching students and seeing them progress and develop through the different elements of tang Soo Do.
