33 Taekwondo at the United Nations Teaching Self-Defense in the Hallowed
Halls of Reconciliation By Grandmaster Doug Cook. Teaching self-defense
incurs great responsibility. Students – even though, they are ultimately being
exposed to skills of enablement, consciously refusing to become innocent

niques need to be practiced slowly and deliberately over time so as to become

second nature.
41 The 1st Cynthia Rothrock Premier Hall of Honors By Sr. Master Guy
Edward Larke. The 1st event was held at the Cherry Hill Holiday Inn in New
Jersey. It ran October 7th to 9th and was a phenomenal success!
There was a FrightDay Night Halloween Party on Friday night from 7:00 -
9:00pm. Everyone jumped in on the craziness, as is evident in the photos.

needed to blow off some steam! As is evident, GM Rothrock loves dressing up
as well.
