NEW RHEE TAEKWONDO BLACKBELTS

 

At some stage of kicking, punching, blocking, shouting, amid pain and endurance, hopefully sweating, Rhee Taekwondo practitioners aspire to wear the elusive Black Belt. Many have embarked on the journey to the black belt and more will do so in the future. It is a tough road but "nothing is impossible to a willing mind"
- (books of Han Dynasty).

 
The symbol of the black belt indicates the endless universe which opens to an unlimited horizon of knowledge. The black belt holder signifies a certain degree of maturity and proficiency in the art that has been reached, and is said to be impervious to darkness and fear. It does not however, represent the status of a tough guy, the best fighter in the class or one's ability to embark on bullying.

The symbol of the black belt is indicative of character rather than physical power. It has the ultimate values of a strong moral culture, spirit, perseverance, responsibility and the ability to face life with dignity.

Rhee Taekwondo black belts are trained to be martial art practitioners and not sportsmen/women. That is where the difference lies.


Our New Black Belts Promoted by Master Rhee in 2010

Greg Bennett Adelaide High School Gym 1st Dan Black Belt


Significant time, effort, perseverance and self discipline were required to reach the black belt standard. Having reached this level I am aware that while this is a significant achievement, it is not, of itself, an end-goal but rather a milestone on a journey and a journey that I would recommend to all. Achievement of a black belt is not easy, but it is definitely worth striving for.
I am grateful to Master Rhee and the instructors within Rhee Taekwondo for their help, guidance and advice along this path; a path that will continue as I strive to improve my aptitude in the art of Rhee Taekwondo.

Dennis McLean Ingle Farm Gym 1st Dan Black Belt


I am honoured to be a Rhee Taekwondo black belt. It has been a culmination of three years of hard training and dedication. After starting Rhee Taekwondo at the age of 6 and having a long break before taking up the art again, achieving my black belt has reaffirmed my passion and enjoyment for the Rhee Taekwondo martial art discipline.
