Yesterday I got in touch with sambonim Ramiro Guzman representative of Soo Back Do Moo Duk Kwan in Mexico, I just wanted to know what is SBD and the diferences beetwen it and TKD.
Ramiro Guzman is one of the glories of Mexican TKD, he was one on the fisrts and top stutedents of Grand Master Dai Won Moon (the father of the Mexican TKD) and before reading Guzman's words I got very confused.
Sambonim Guzman was one of the top competitor internationally he was a very important part of Tae Kwon Do Moo Duk Kwan in México but it seems some yearsk back there was a fracture in TKD MDK and several people departed and formed a new organization Asociacion Moo Duk Kwan.
Mr. Guzman told me in his email that in the begining of the 70's Dai Won Moon taught Tang Soo Do and eventually Mr. Moon departed form Grand Master Kee and got inside the TKD movement, this is is true?
Mr. Guzman was a high dan in MDK TKD but now he's a 7th dan Black belt in SBD how is this is? he merily change his dans in Kukiwon Tae Kwon Do to SBD is this possible, I mean SBD gave to him a 7th degree black belt? SBD movement started back in 1994-97, how a sambonim can reach 7th degree black belt in such short period of time?
Mr.Guzman told me they don't like the sportizacion of TKD and so they wanted to change to SBD because it's an original martial rat from Korea and they wanted to keep the MA, however Ramiro Guzman as I Said beforte was a top international competitor, wining championships in Europe and Asia and USA... and he liked so much competition even he was one (with Isais Dueñas) the firsth full contact fighters Mexico had.
I really don't get it, I still thinking SBD is in some way TKD too or viceversa, both are Korean Martila Arts, TKD was only the result of the Kwans unifications, some adhere and some don't but, as I know was Gen.Choi the one who unificated the Kwan and thus the word tae Kwon Do was made.
