In 1979, I began instructing Tae Kwon Do/Hapkido(Moo Du Kwan) under Master Changhee Jhoon. It was thru my TKD/Hapkido training that I developed unmatched body conditioning/hardening skills. While in the military I continued training in Moo Du Kwan and obtained my 2nd & eventually 3rd Degree Black Belts. My initial introduction to the FMA came in 1985. Upon my return from the military in 1991 I continued study in Serrada Escrima under Pangulong Guro Chuck Cadell III, I achieved Pangisang Guro status. My empty hand, blade and stick/cane abilities increased under his instruction. Most recently, I obtained the status of Panginoon Guro in the Davis/Cabales System of Escrima.
