WHO IS GRAND MASTER GOH
 

Grand Master Chae T. Goh was born and raised in Korea . Grand Master Goh started his Martial Arts training in the early 50's at the age of seven. By the age of sixteen, Grand Master Goh had received a Martial Arts Black Belt. Grand Master Goh is one out of a handful of Grand Masters in the world who hold the rank of 9th Degree Black Belt in Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido. Grand Master Goh has been extremely successful both as a Martial Art Instructor and as a competitor. His accomplishments include championships both in form and fighting competitions throughout Asia . Many of Grand Master Goh's students have won Regional Grand Championships and competitions as well.

In 1970 Master Goh was selected with a handful of other South Korean Masters to write a thesis describing how they would change the Martial Arts training process to more effectively spread the Ancient Arts in America . This was a very high honor for Master Goh. He alone out of all candidates was selected to come to America with the mission of spreading the Martial Arts of Korea to the American culture.

Grand Master Goh's teaching experiences include:

  • Korean Navy
  • Korean Tae Kwon Do Mun Moo Kwan Federation
