Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Hi all, For some background... I'm 50 years old and suffer from type 2 diabetes, high blood preasure, and asthma (this isn't a joke, really!). I studied tkd when I lived in Northern NJ for about 5 years. Due to complications I won't get into here, I had to stop some 5 years ago. I'm now living in Newark, Delaware (right in between Philadelphia and Baltimore). I was wondering if anyone knew of a dojang in this neck of the woods that might be willing to take my various illness issues into account (I'm cleared by my doc to train btw) and work with me so that I could have a reasonable "ramp up" and training program ??? Thanks in advance for your hep folks. While I don't hardly ever post, I've been on the list for many many years and find it wonderful to read.

Richmond to DC is a long commute. 2 -2 1/2 Hours. I practice at Jin Pal Hapkido in Rockville MD a suburb of DC. We are right of the Red line of the Metro. Http://www.jinpalhapkido.com also if she has anything to do with the White House Staff we have a class in the White House Athletic Center. Also she may try as well http://www.nvahapkido.com/ they are affiliated with Master JR West and Master Holcombe Thomas. They list locations in Fairfax and Springfield VA. You can also always look here http://www.hapkido-info.net/html/hapkido_dojangs_com.html Brian On Nov 28, 2004, at 6:02 AM, the_dojang-request@martialartsresource.net wrote: > I have a friend who is looking for a HKD instructor in the Richmond VA. > area. > Also anything round DC might work, as she works in DC.

I would agree that Hwang Kee was the founder of the 'arts' of HwaSooDo and SooBahkDo, but he was not the founder of TangSooDo. I do understand what you are trying to explain, but Won Kuk Lee was the first to use the term.

That was in 1944. The MDK was not founded until 1945... so how can you manipulate facts enough to say that Hwang Kee founded TSD? He founded MDK and Modern SooBahkDo, but not Tang Soo Do. It would be accurate to say that he did not convert to Taekwondo, and remained traditional, or however, you want to describe it, but to claim that he founded TSD is blatantly wrong and misinformation. f. --__--__-- Message: 5 From: joseph Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2004 16:33:09 -0600 To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Subject: [The_Dojang] (no subject) Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Dear Bruce; It is very true that techniques may be done in similar form between a number of styles but have totally different names or numbers. This does cause confusion. You are very much correct on this point. It would be nice to have a list or manual from which to refer. In the schools and style of Hapkido that I am familiar with all wrist techniques are numbered. This is not the way human memory works. It needs a name or hook to hang the memory on. ( this is why we have website names which are linked to IP numbers.. No one cares what the IP of the site is because they wouldn't remember it anyway. ) If you could assign a name and description to a group of basic techniques I am sure it would help on several levels. As far as looking to any other Assoc , org, or Fed to bless this one or cert that one, I hope we have all learned our lesson. Thanks for your efforts. Let us know if we can help.

I was going to email you, but could not find your address. I wanted to invite you up to Georgetown (TX, not DC area) to train with Master Kirsch & I. You can email me but off-line, if interested and needing directions Tom Stanfield ----- Original Message ----- From: "Edward" To: "Dojang Digest" Sent: Saturday, November 27, 2004 5:51 PM Subject: [The_Dojang] Looking for Instructors > Hello everybody > > It has been a while since my last post here.
