Graciela Casillas and hwa rang do

The last I heard, she was teaching with her husband, Ernie Boggs, at their school in Nitro, W. Virginia. She's heavily involved with Sport Jujutsu but still trains with various styles. I don't know how active it is but she founded her own style, Shin Chun do.
 
If she was a WHRDA black sash, she's not listed on the WHRDA website.
 
Sorry my bad
I did some home work and found out that she was a red belt then went to kenpo.
She said the she liked the art but that kenpos training style was more real.
I found her statement in a old inside kung fu article online.
 
I was pretty good friends with Grace for a while there. She left for the same reasons that so many older generation (and maybe new generations too) students have left. Never good.

She is an incredibly gifted and accomplished martial artist. She is a fantastic technician and awesome teacher. Not to forget her trailblazing fighting skills.
