GRANDMASTER TRAN TRIEU QUAN,Posted on : Fri 19th Feb 10
It is with great sorrow that I can confirm that Grand master Tran has been confirmed dead in the earthquake in Haiti, the full story can be read in the link below. I was aware that he had been missing and feared the worst, and that has indeed now been confirmed.
I had the privilege to train with GM Tran on three occasions and also to attend some of his seminars on the philosophy behind Taekwon do. He was a humble and very inspirational man, who came across as a true leader from the first time I met him. I believe his greatest contribution to our martal art was to continue General Choi's mission to create a martial art that connected mind and body - the Taekwon and the Do. I for one will continue to develop that mission as will many who worked with GM Tran.
