I have been occasionally watching the posts but didn't have much to add. Well, I saw this post and thought it was time. Timing was perfect as I started my first Sin Moe Hapkido class in Centreville, VA last night. I've been down in VA for over a year now with a new job that has really kept me busy. I have trained but struggled to find a location to teach. I'm teaching at a Taekwondo school in Centreville for a great young korean taekwondo master. 15 students last night. I'm so glad to be back. As for the CT guys, they're still training and teaching in the same location. If anyone is interested in training with them or me write me directly, mccarty@hapkidojang.com. I also did hear that Hal was in CT. He's on the shore near the Casino's. To all my friends on the list, Jack, Mike, JR, Chris and many others, Hello. I'm Back.

I worked out with Mike and his guys with Doju Nim Ji at one of the training sessions Mike had in Windsor...lot's of fun and plenty of sweat and bruises....I know that you know the drill!! Got to meet and partner up with Chris also..good guy... They have a nice dojang at the recreation center Mike used to run.......that was a really nice place.....
