amjdoc is an unknown quantity at this point

Hi, I started Chung Do Kwan TKD in February this year, aged 32...quite old for a newcomer, but i'm fitter now than i've ever been....lost 30lbs in weight (alomost back to the weight i was in my late teens), lowered my blood pressure and heart beat significantly.

The chief instructor is a Korean guy....WTF 7th Dan and his assistant is another Korean guy, he's the youngest WTF 5th Dan in the world...22yrs old.

If anyone in Hong Kong wants to learn TKD drop me a line.

Why, you're practically a baby!

I started TKD when I was 45. I was challenged to join the class by a retired lady in her mid 60's who had just passed her black belt test. She had reversed the onset of osteoporosis with TKD. Keep it up. It only gets better!
