About Me

Namaste.. (the part of me that is God salutes the part of you that is God) or should I say An Nyung Hashim nika, or hello in Korean.

I began my Taekwondo Training at the age of 12 under the instruction of Supreme Grandmaster Chun Kae-bae of San Marcos, California, who has been my only instructor. I'm Master and 7th Degree Black Belt in "The Wisdom School - Jidokwan" of Taekwondo.

I've committed this blog and my website http://www.taekwondo-4self-mastery to the many aspects of personal growth, development and self mastery that include: developing taekwondo skills, as well as physical, emotional, spiritual and life skills.

PHYSICAL MASTERY: including your physical structure, nutrition, strength, endurance and flexibility as well as martial arts ability.

EMOTIONAL MASTERY: being able to transmute negative emotions into the super force that will energize and empower you toward your life’s mission. "Ki" if you will.

SPIRITUAL MASTERY: is not related to any religion not does tae kwon do-4self-mastery.com promote any specific religion. By spiritual we mean skills to better understand our place in the world as well as develop the indomitable spirit that martial artists are known for.

SELF MASTERY: also includes mastery of your relationships and communication skills, and mastery of your life, or time management.

These and many other topics pertaining to the mastery of the mind, body and spirit will be encompassed in this website and in the self-mastery-blog

Though Taekwondo-4self-mastery.COM is based upon the teachings of the wisdom school of Tae kwon do, the principles and technologies discussed here are for any student of human nature with the desire to improve themselves physically, spiritually and mentally.
