Black Belt Promotion Test Congratulations!
The Fruits of 15 & 20 Years of Dedication! A New Chapter in European Haidong Gumdo (4th & 5th Dan)!
The Haidong Gumdo 4th and 5th Dan Black Belt Promotion Test was successfully held on November 28th.
It is by no means an easy feat to dedicate oneself to a single discipline for over 10 or even 20 years without giving up. Your long-standing efforts, perseverance, and passion deserve the deepest respect. This promotion is a well-earned and valuable culmination of your hard work.
We extend our heartfelt congratulations and deepest gratitude to the Masters and Instructors from Switzerland🇨🇭, France🇫🇷, and Finland🇫🇮, who have diligently trained for periods ranging from 15 to over 20 years.
Furthermore, we offer our sincere appreciation to Grandmaster
Sang-Hyun Han, Headmaster of the European Haedong Gumdo Association. He traveled all the way from Korea, navigating a busy schedule for the Dan Test and the Swiss Mountain Camp, and provided detailed, personalized feedback to every single examiner. Thank you very much!
Your steadfast spirit and dedication will undoubtedly pave the way for a brighter future for Haidong Gumdo!
HAIDONG!
Master Lee.
