Ahn Taekwondo
Cincinnati, Ohio

this year's focus
Joint Locks, Counter Grappling
and
Ground Grappling

This year marks the 2nd year that the Black Belt Summer Retreat will be held in Cincinnati, Ohio at Ahn Taekwondo.  As always, the summer retreat will focus on the various physical aspects of Taekwondo.  The 2009 retreat will concentrate on the Joint Locks, Counter Grappling (application of joint locks) and Ground Grappling.   We will be exploring the majority of the over 50 joint locks contained in Shin Ho Kwan.  These will include but are not limited to finger locks, wrist locks, elbow locks, shoulder locks, knee locks and neck locks.  In addition, we will explore how to use them in real world situations (counter grappling).  Registration and new student orientation will start on Friday at 6pm and the retreat will formally commence at 8pm with the opening ceremony.  The retreat will end on Sunday at 12 noon.

taught by Master Sean Pearson

Open to all black belts 15 years old and older (anyone that turns 15 in 2009 can also attend).
