Claire Davey of Hwa Rang Do® Club Luxembourg I work in the Securities Services Industry, dealing on a daily basis with many European customers. My role requires me to be able to communicate effectively and find solutions to complicated situations. I am also a part-time professional photographer, mainly concentrating on family portraits. In order to produce the best results, I have to be able to connect well with my customers, understand their needs, and adapt to what can be a fast-changing situation, while remaining calm yet professional. I began practicing Tae Soo Do® in July 2016, at the age of 46, having never practiced a martial art before in my life. It is the most challenging and rewarding experience, which is not just about learning the physical practice, but also constantly teaches me about myself, other people and the world in which we live. It is giving me the tools, even being in my 50s, to better face the challenges in my daily life, to grow and most importantly to overcome my weaknesses and fears. Although I can deal with work and personal problems as they arise, not being very physical I was very timid and intimated by physical challenges, which also limited me from venturing out of my comfort zone. However, I have come to realize that I am much stronger than I originally thought and my fears in the beginning were unfounded. Through Grandmaster Taejoon Lee’s teachings and the help of his senior instructors, I have become more self-confident and empowered to not allow my fears and negative thoughts to overwhelm me emotionally, allowing me to maintain a clear focused mind, learning the most valuable lesson - that mind over matter is key in any situation. I had the honor of being invited to become an Assistant Instructor in 2019 and this role is allowing me to share my experiences with other students and to help them in turn to overcome their own challenges. Teaching, both children and adults, is a big responsibility but to be involved in helping them evolve and improve is a very inspiring and humbling experience. #hwarang #hwarangdo #taesoodo #martialarts #leadership #rolemodel #woman #empowerment #luxembourg #clairedavey

Grandmaster Taejoon Lee demonstrates effective Dan Bong ( Short Stick ) self defense techniques. The dan bong, as it's called in Korean, descended from the drumsticks that Buddhist monks used-and still use-to beat the large drums that sit in every temple in the nation. In olden days, the priests would pound the instruments for prayer services and during emergencies when an alarm needed to be sounded in the monastery.

Remembering Michael Echanis, a fallen Hwarang Warrior on his birthday. Hwarang forever, Pictured here with his martial arts master, Hwa Rang Do Founder Supreme Grandmaster Dr. Joo Bang Lee, who was responsible in bringing Echanis back to health from his Vietnam wounds and teaching the Sulsa Techniques of Hwa Rang Do, allowing Echanis the opportunity to become active in the Special Forces to teach and spread his newly gained knowledge of Hwa Rang Do received from his master Dr. Joo Bang Lee through intensive private tutelage. This picture is from the series of books published through Ohara Publications in the 70s, which was created through Dr. Lee's close relationship with Mr. Han who was the publisher at the time. It was the mastermind of Hwa Rang Do Founder Dr. Joo Bang Lee who outlined and directed the entire series of Echanis books on military combatives, directing both Echanis and his partner Chuck Sanders as well as his student, whom he assigned as training partner to Michael, Randy Warner, though the entire photoshoot to make sure his knowledge (Founder's knowledge) was portayed accurately. This always has been the trademark of our leaders - their attention to detail, quality control, and paving our path even if it means swimming up river. Thank you Ohara Publications for the picture. RIP our fellow brethren, fellow hwarang... Hwa Rang Do Forever! www.Hwarangdo.com #hwarangdo #joobanglee #martialarts #jedi #jedimaster #michaelechanis #echanis #specialforces #greenberets #SEALS #sealteamsix #delta #recon #army #USarmy #military #combat #vietnamwar #becausethereisadarkside #sf #truth
