Students from our club are constantly taught the Master Kang's Korean way of Taekwondo which focuses on traditional forms & repetitive sparring drills to develope flawless techniques used in technical and sparring competitions. Master Kang is a direct student of the Great Grandmaster Hae Man Park (10th Dan black belt) who is one of the original Korean Taekwondo Masters who created the WTF Taeguek and Palgwae poomsae forms.
