Black Belt
Can someone explain to me why in the heck TKD has so many org. such as American Tae Kwon Do Association, International TKD Federation, Etc....? Why does a school have to belong to one of these oragnizations. Can someone just open a school and teach TKD if they have a high ranking black belt in it? In Kung Fu there is no governing body to say you have to do this or that. There is no governing body that says you have to pay annual dues to keep your rank. Thats stupid. How can an org. take your rank away from you? You know what you know. Are they going to erase all the stuff you know out of your head? Are they going to come to your home and take your diploma back? To me these organizations are money making sceems that someone in tkd came up with. Thank God kung fu doesn't have these. Other styles have these crazy org.'s as well but TKD seems to have the most.
