You should know that I just looked at of that up online. Like I said I no longer actively practice and even if I did I never counted the moves and was never taught the significance. If this was some sort of test to see if I really was a black belt you could have easily asked me for a picture of the belt, which I would have provided.

    No you pretty much told me what I needed to know in response to your black belt. I am not trying to put down your schooling or whatever, but where I take class at we take it all very seriously the interpretations and the movements. We are taught the history and the tradition of TKD. When I said I was a TKD freak I wasnt kidding lol.

    Alot of TKD gets a bad name these days because there are so many joke instructors that just want your money and your belt test fees and will promote you when you dont deserve it etc. Not saying that was you just something I have observed alot in the past.

    Let's see- I was in Shaolin Goju Karate for 3 years, and did not recieve my Black belt as I was 6 months too young, and even then the instructor had to get permission from his instructor in Japan to allow me and another student to test 1 year early because we were ready at age 10, not 11. Then we moved and I re-rolled in ATA/Karate America/ What-ever the branch is were you are. DO NOT TAKE ATA TAEKWONDO
    It is the school that prides itself on 6 year old, 9 months of training black belts. I did the path correctly, and reached 2nd degree in that, but was not happy.

    I am know in the form I like the most, possibly more thna my 1st one, Krav Maga. I am halfway up the ranking system, and have 1 more year, and if I pass the 2 tests during that year, I will have to go to LA, California to test for the next rank.
    To prevent confusion of styles, the style I take's website is:
    kravmaga.com
