My son and I have been receiving instruction from Master Rick St. Clair for close to ten years now and I can say without hesitation that we have received a top notch martial arts education in Tae Kwon Do as well as other disciplines which relate and augment our instruction. Master St. Clair holds his students to a higher standard and depth of knowledge and as such employs or promotes only those who have shown full mastery and proficiency of the Tae Kwon Do discipline and its guiding principles. Knowing this, it is unfortunate to find that one individual who was asked to share his knowledge and teach his fellow students yet felt it necessary to voice his misguided and self-important opinion which only serves to dishonor and discredit himself. Having known Master St. Clair for all these years I have found him to be a fair and just man of high integrity and honor befitting his title and rank. Although we took a break, we were welcomed back without hesitation and now, my son will soon be closing in on his black belt with the full support of the students and instructors, and of course, Master Rick St. Clair.
