I don't think that's true Dante, I think alot of "American" martial arts are phony sninoffs of tae kwon do, but I am a student of Shotokan Karate in the Japan Karate Association. It's very real, though hard to findin the states. It's not illegal, that's crazy.
I posted this on T4S but so far I havn't got any answers. I thought maybe someone on the main forums would better know.
I want to learn more about the golden age. Where can I find information about
that era? If you know anything about that please respond. I couldn't find
anything on...
