T is so looking forward to being Master Doug's student for all of his TaeKwonDo. He's looking forward to growing and learning all he can while being his student. He has known Master Doug for many many years now. Master Doug had a winning competition Demo Team and that was his main focus for a good many years. He's now switched his focus to more of the sparring side of things. We wanted to take a moment and introduce you to his new Master/Coach because this is who he will have as his Master from here on out unless something unforeseeable happens. Master Doug just recently earned his blue belt in Jujitsu. That's a step down from black belt in that particular martial arts and it takes 10 years to go from blue to black in it. He is very actively involved in instructing his students. He's a very hands on Master and that is what T aspires to be someday. This move to Master Doug was a needed move so that T can continue moving forward in TaeKwonDo. He loves everything about TaeKwonDo and not just the sparring aspect of it. He will learn a lot being with Master Doug and he looks forward to having a growing relationship with him for years to come. There's so much more to this Master than meets the eye. #GodsPlan
