Great Grandmaster Howard Y. Kang passed away April 4th, 2021. With his passing Master Charlie Kang (Great Grandmaster’s son) has been promoted to Grandmaster and thus the CTF lineage and legacy remains in the Kang family.
Chin Mu Kwan literally means “True Martial Art Home” the art of Taekwon-Do as a self defense.
