At Taekwondo World, we consider it to be essential to a student's growth as a Black Belt, that he/she participate in conveying martial skills, spirit and attitudes to others. Certain basic skills, (physical, intellectual, personal, social, and spiritual) have been acquired all along the path to the present moment. The only "way" we can hone any skill is to reflect on it in a focused way as we try to present that skill to a newer student.
With above as the guiding pricipal, all active Black Belt students at Taekwondo World voluntarily assume the privilege and responsibility for assisting, on an "as available" basis, whenever help is needed. Each of us then grows beyond having a black belt to being a Black Belt. Those who have made committents to teaching specific groups are noted below.
