I have been very fortunate over the years to have learned and been certified under some great Hapkido Masters. The Masters that have influenced me the most over the years have been Master Harold Whalen, Rick Nabors and Doju Nim Ji Han Jae. I have been a very lucky man to have been in the right place at the right time to learn from many legitimate Hapkido players.

Well, it looks like this may have worked because there is another episode of MTV's "Made" show that is dealing with a Tang Soo Do school. Middlesex Tang Soo Do Academy is the name of the school I think. So you may want to check it out, although the girl who wants to be made into a martial artist will drive you crazy because of her intial lack of seriousness/discipline...lol.

Gordon Okerstrom --__--__-- Message: 8 From: James O'Connor To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2008 09:45:31 -0600 Subject: [The_Dojang] Spreading My Wings Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Tonight I had a long chat with my instructor and I've decided to move on from his school for now. Don't read that wrong, it was a very good conversation and it really comes down to the areas of my interest in study are different than his areas of interest in teaching. I'm still a part of the family, my kids will still train there, he wished me well in my growth and offered help and I will be back both to learn and instruct in the future, very likely. So what am I looking for now? Tae Kwon Do as a self-defense art. Strong emphasis on strategy and tactics as well as practical responses. My view on forms is as such. Forms define the full scope of the techniques of the art and all the techniques within should be practiced for practicality in themselves. That's kicks, knees, punches, elbows, knife-hands, etc...etc.. forms are good for teaching balance, control, focus, etc..etc... but sometimes you need to stop forms as just an abstract art and take the techniques out of the form and practice them for power, against resistance, etc..etc.. My view on sparring is as such. "The army doesn't train to excel at war games, the Army does war games to prepare for winning a war". As such, I think Tae Kwon Do as a full martial art should be practiced for effectiveness in it's entirety, and then you put the pads on and limit your attacks to some given rule set just to test your speed and your strength and what you can do against an intelligent and skilled opponent. I still want to compete on occasion, but I don't want hat the focus of my training. Ideally, i would like to compete in non-Tae Kwon Do venues (such as amateur MMA or whatever) to test myself against people who don't train like I do My other thought is to go back to my old Hapkido instructor (who is good friends with my Tae Kwon Do instructor, btw...he is also a Tae Kwon Do BB under my current instructor and sat on my BB test and critiqued some of my techniques). But I feel in many ways I left some ares of my training incomplete when I left him (as a purple belt) so it's tempting to use his very-pragmatic Hapkido/MMA approach to round out and buttress and strengthen my Tae Kwon Do base I live in Colorado Springs. I thought I see if anyone know someone in the area that would be compatible with my goals. Thanks. Note: I am a 1st Dan in our school but did not send in paperwork/fees for a Kukkiwon number --__--__-- Message: 9 Subject: Re: [The_Dojang] Re: Hangul and etiquette To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net From: Victor.E.Dodge@jci.com Date: Tue, 28 Oct 2008 11:25:33 -0500 Reply-To: the_dojang@martialartsresource.net Doesn't "insa" mean dismissed?
