Another thing I disagree on, d I have just come to accept it just isn't that big of a deal, is him using Japanese terminology in a Korean Art. He began training Tae Kwon Do the 1970's under Korean Karate label. Apparently they used nothing, but Japanese terminology and that is what he originally learned. Then in the early 2000's he became a member of the USTA/ITA where I know they used Korean terminology. Then in 2013 He started teaching at a Japanese dojo, specializing in Kenjutsu. He started private teaching under the Tae Kwon Do/ Korean Karate label, since it was Japanese school he went back to the Japanese terminology. Now that we are no longer affiliated with the Japanese school he still uses the Japanese terminology and sometimes I cringe when he says Kata, or someone calls him sensei.
