leading authority on realistic self-defense is taking the world by storm!
Realizing the dreams of Grandmaster Kim Myung Yong, who established the Jin Jung Kwan system of Hapkido in 1967, Grandmaster Rhoades' intent is to preserve the integrity of Jin Jung Kwan and he has been opening doors worldwide to this incredible opportunity.
Promoting Jin Jung Kwan as a pure and complete martial art system, Grandmaster Rhoades is welcoming professional-minded, progressive instructors, school owners and students to take part in this amazing system.
Offering legitimate certification with worldwide recognition, instructors interested in bringing this high level of quality to their students should contact the Jin Jung Kwan headquarters in Wentzville, MO right away.

His ranking as 8th Degree Black Belt and the backing of Grandmaster Kim himself leaves no doubt as to the validity of instructors and schools that are certified in this amazing, high-quality system of Hapkido.
