Grandmaster Kwang Jo Choi when he was a Master (6th Dan) in TKD. This video clip has been taken from the Tae Kwon Do Pioneers DVD released by ITF New Zealand.

I have released this clip from an official ITF DVD as proof that Grandmaster Choi was higher than 4th Dan black belt as some people who have a grudge against him have accused.

Hopefully this will stop some of the lies spread about him.

This DVD is available from www.paulm.co.nz/tkd

  • Oh and he did get to 7th Dan. I remember seeing a picture of him and an old student in the states Glenn Kleinow (Ithink) when he was 7th Dan with a copy of Gen Choi's TKD book.

  • He was not a Master yet. 7TH dan is when one becomes a Master in the ITF.

  • Well its an ITF Video and in it they call him Master Choi 6th Degree black belt. So go figure? Maybe they changed the rank of master to 7th dan after this as it was videoed a VERY long time ago.

  • @njones420 Yes, but it is also his own PERSONAL way of performing the moves.

    Not every TKD exponent strikes the air with such a jarring motion.

    Watch some other Masters perform the forms and you will see what I mean.

  • He is good at forms BUT the amount of power he uses when punching and kicking the air must be jarring on his joints.

    No wonder he left TKD to form CKD with its more joint friendly techniques.

  • @amiller127 In the ITF Yondan or $th dan is a master. At 7th Dan ur considered a Grand master.

  • Este tul comienza abriendo para el

    lado izquierdo.

  • Sin entrar en el mérito de otras cuestiones una cosa es clara:

    YUL GOK comienza para el lado izquierdo.

    Abrazo.

  • @amiller127 6th dan was never a master in the itf(it is in wtf),they are calling him mister, not master if you listen carefully

  • @3csimon who is your instructor? Do you or your instructor have any videos on here?

  • @3csimon so, enlighten me on a better video....

  • @JHM406 it was horrible! he nearly fell over
