Description
The author takes us on a first hand account of his life story and his dedication to the art of Taekwondo. We begin in Korea just before the Korean war and learn why Taekwondo is a noble and positive recreation for children, offering them challenges and lessons that they will reflect upon for their entire lives. We follow the author as he takes Taekwondo to America not knowing how he and his art will be received. Then we learn how Taekwondo plays a major role in this Grand Master's pursuit of a life in America and we cheer him on as he overcomes the difficulties a non-English speaking immigrant discovers in the USA. From celebrity students to everyday citizens, Master Richard Chun offers us the key to living a life of contribution to humanity through Taekwondo. This book will deepen your understanding of taekwondo traditions and will be an inspiration and advice for a lifetime of practice, no matter what style or level of experience you have.
Dr. Richard Chun, Ph.D., (9th Dan) is the president of the United States Taekwondo Association and special Assistant to the President of the World Taekwondo Federation.
