Tang Soo Do Forms
A good reference to Tang Soo Do Forms.
Note for Central Michigan Karate Students, we have some minor differences in movements or emphasis of techniques, however these are a good resource to check if you are stuck working on a form. Remember to get with an instructor or upper ranking person to review any forms you are having difficulty with.
Special Thanks to Master D. McHenry for taking time to help other TSD Students.

Grandmaster Dale Drouillard
I wanted to pass along this link to the "Tang Soo Do World" web site honoring Grandmaster Dale Drouillard who was the first American to be awarded a Black Belt in Tang Soo Do.
LINK: http://www.tangsoodoworld.com/whos_who_profiles/dale_drouillard.htm
I had the honor of meeting him at the KI Nationals in 2006 and also at 2nd & 3rd International Tang Soo Do Seminars hosted by Grand Master Kang Uk Lee.
My personal best training highlight so far in my career was in 2007 at the 3rd International Tang Soo Do Seminar. I was invited to attend the masters workshop a small group session for learning Chil Sung 3 which was taught by Grandmaster Kang Uk Lee assisted by Grandmaster Dale Drouillard. This was a small group session of about 24 people consisting of so many legendary martial artists. The 1st position in class was filled by Grandmaster David J. Praim, proceeded by Master Floyd Soo, Master Mike March, Master Ed Cutlip, Master Kirk Rehn and many others.
I felt very honored to attend this class session and recognized that I would probably never in my life be in the same spot with so many Amazing Martial Arts Masters at one time.
After the session I remarked to Grandmaster Praim that I had never imagined training in the same class with him and he laughed. During this time I was training with the Shelby KI group, which is Grandmaster Praims Black Belt School.

Black Belt Awarded
Black Belt Awarded!
Central Michigan Student Awarded 1st Degree Black Belt
April 21, 2007 — The Tung Gin Association and Central Michigan Karate Club hosted the 2007 Spring Black Belt Testing Program in Farwell Michigan. The day was filled with martial arts excitement by hosting 51 student tests for ranks below black belt. The highlight of the day was the FINAL test for the Black Belt Candidate Mr. Chad Simon of Mt. Pleasant.
Being Awarded a Black Belt is a high honor in life that very few people will achieve due to the difficulty and dedication required. Being awarded a Black Belt in Karate is much like earning an Eagle Scout, Masters Degree or Specialist in ones professional field of expertise.
The pathway to becoming a Black Belt is also much more than just physical skill it encompasses the Mind, Body & Spirit. The process takes many years and after all the work has been completed the student MUST be recommended by their instructor & peers.
Certificate Text As Follows:
It is with great honor that the Tung Gin Association Awards Mr. Chad Simon the rank of 1st Degree Black Belt. He shall hereby be honored from this day forward and granted the privileges and responsibilities of this rank. This degree is presented for outstanding achievement in the martial arts and is recognized throughout the world. Be it known that this declaration of accomplishment is granted for excellence in physical skills, mental ability, loyalty and dedication to the art of Tang Soo Do. This individual has achieved the highest goals of the martial arts: Transcendence and Unity.
Given this 21st day of April 2007 and certified by the promotion board of the Tung Gin Association.
About Mr. Simon: he began the study of the martial arts at the Harrison Dance Center in the early 1990’s under the instruction of Douglas Resseguie. Since then he has distinguished himself in many ways and he is best described by the Samuri Maxim – “A man who has attained mastery of an art reveals it in his every action.” He is a health care professional, military veteran, and martial arts instructor. His lifetime contributions to the people of Central Michigan and his local community are far more than just his effort spent working with the karate club.
About Central Michigan Karate:
Central Michigan Karate Club was founded in 1969 and has offered a pathway to quality martial arts for over 38 years. Training locations include: Mid Michigan Community College, Central Michigan University, Harrison Dance Center, Weidman Elementary, Mesick Schools and Grand Rapids Adaptive Martial Arts.
