That guy is BAD-ASS. I don't know how hard it is to be a 9th degree black in Hapkido or a 6th degree black in taequando, but im assuming both are difficult (though i am not really fond of either all that much). A 4th degree black in Judo? THATS tough, thats like olympic skill level.

i am presently training with him now....i signed up for regular classes as well as private training......after my initial consultation with him and watching his belt gradings i was very impressed with his students......he runs his school in military fashion which i like and has the most polite and respectful students ive ever encountered....zero ego....the real challenge will be not to use my boxing in his class or to forget it temporarily while im in his class.....any of you guys ever been in a similar situation? where your trained in something totally different and you start a new style? .....i was like " kicking? boxers dont kick!" but now im faced with the challenge of not only kicking but kicking well, as tae kwon do demands....flexibility ( which i dont have) ....the only thing in my favor is that my boxing for the last year and a half has put me in better shape than the whole class .......thats one thing no one can ever take away from boxing....conditioning.
