Warning this is a long (and confusing) vent. Feel free to stop reading now.
I trained with instructor A for ten years. Received my 2nd dan in TKD. Had my son and took 6 years off. Gave up on coming back despite my love for it.
Ran into instructor B (who was a color belt when I left,is now third dan) and started training with him. Stayed at belt rank as I remembered everything. Instructor B had left instructor A and switched to instructor C. (Her studio is an hour away from B's). Both studios are named the same and are supposed to simply share them and just head one or the other.
Instructor B gave me permission to test for third dan (big no-no as he's only 3rd). Instructor C denied it. Now they're fighting over it and who has authority. Instructor B wants to buy out instructor C's studio,etc. so much DRAMA. what ever happened to respecting each other? ESPECIALLY your instructor!!!
So my test in June is most likely not happening, which I'm okay with. I trust instructor C's opinion. But instructor B's actions and behavior lately is really making me consider leaving him:/
