(3/25/24) IMPORTANT AND EXCITING NEWS FOR HEUK CHOO KWAN & LEE BROTHERS’ FRIENDS
Dear members, friends, and supporters,
We’re thrilled to share some truly remarkable news with all of you. This week marks an extraordinary journey as Grandmaster Sangho (Sean) Lee and two exceptional students, Tony Merafuentes and Marty Sullivan, embark on a transformative trip to South Korea.
Their itinerary includes visits to prestigious locations such as Kukkiwon (World Taekwondo Headquarters), Jidokwan’s Headquarters, Heuk Choo Kwan Headquarters, Busan, and the hometown of the esteemed Lee Brothers in Gochang. Their mission is nothing short of inspiring; they aim to gather invaluable insights and expertise to fuel the expansion efforts of Heuk Choo Kwan (Black Eagle Hapkido) in Daejeon, South Korea, with a particular focus on its growth in America.
While Black Eagle's expansion efforts in America are not entirely new, the fervor and determination to make significant strides have never been stronger. To all those familiar with Black Eagle Hapkido (Heuk Choo Kwan), We urge you to remain closely connected with Grandmaster Lee and the new leadership team based in North Carolina and California, USA.
Effective April 1, 2024, Grandmaster Lee of Burlington, NC, will assume the leadership reins and oversee all Heuk Choo Kwan activities in America. Our North Carolina location will be the central hub for Black Eagle Hapkido's certification programs, educational seminars, tournaments, and camps.
Mark your calendars for the momentous leadership team installment ceremony on Saturday, March 30th, in Daejeon, South Korea. This event will witness the presence of esteemed dignitaries, including the entire Heuk Choo Kwan board members and school owners from across South Korea.
In a moment of great honor and recognition, our two exceptional masters, Tony Merafuentes and Marty Sullivan, will be appointed to pivotal roles. Grandmaster Lee will be privileged to assume the mantle of President of Black Eagle America, with Master Merafuentes serving as Secretary General and Master Sullivan as Global Ambassador.
This global network initiative solidifies Lee Brothers as the premier destination for Hapkido and Taekwondo training in America and opens abundant opportunities for collaborative exchange programs and visits, enriching the experiences of our students in North Carolina and California.
Furthermore, it is an immense joy to announce the well-deserved promotions of several dedicated masters for their unwavering commitment and passion for Taekwondo and Hapkido training. Their promotions, ranging from 5th to 7th Dan Grandmaster, reflect their decades of dedication and expertise, duly recognized by Heuk Choo Kwan and Jidokwan HQ in South Korea.
The following masters will be promoted to new ranks:
• Tony Merafuentes to 7th Dan Grandmaster from 6th Dan
• Marty Sullivan to 6th Dan Master from 5th Dan
• Edy Mendez to 6th Dan Master from 5th Dan
• Alina Hughes to 5th Dan Master from 4th Dan
• Vince Tolotta to 5th Dan Master from 4th Dan
• William W. Lee to 5th Dan Master from 4th Dan
Accompanied by his esteemed students, Master Sullivan, and the soon-to-be Grandmaster Merafuentes, Grandmaster Lee eagerly anticipates the promotion ceremonies of his students. The official Taekwondo promotion ceremony, conducted by Grandmaster Seung Wan Lee, will take place at the World Taekwondo Jidokwan HQ in Seoul, South Korea. Additionally, the official Hapkido promotion ceremony, led by Grandmaster Jongmoon Jin, the founder of Heuk Choo Kwan, alongside other distinguished dignitaries, is scheduled to be held at the Heuk Choo Kwan HQ in Daejeon, South Korea.
This momentous occasion celebrates the accomplishments of our dedicated practitioners and paves the way for a brighter future filled with boundless possibilities and achievements.
Stay tuned for more updates as we embark on this exhilarating journey together!
