Grandmaster Jhoon Rhee — known as the Father of American Taekwondo — was an incredible soul, full of tremendous joy & strength. I wanted to break the record by earning my black belt in just six months versus the 3 or 4 years that it normally takes under Master Rhee’s Taekwondo trainings. I would finish seminars at 2am, train for 2 or 3 hours, then get up to lead the next day’s seminar. Master Rhee was by my side each day, encouraging me to not only upgrade & master my martial arts skills, but teaching me the subtleties of how to live a fulfilling life.
