Annual Black Belt Retreat
3 decades ago, Shin Ho Kwan started offering a Winter Retreat for its black belts. That retreat was specifically designed to offer black belts a means to focus on the mental aspects of Taekwondo and only had 6 attendees. More recent retreats have attracted numerous black belts from across the USA and Mexico, and have grown to attract black belts from other martial arts, such as Kali, Hapkido, Karate, and Aikido. Originally only Grandmaster Pearson taught the two-day retreats. Now the four-day retreats are taught by Grandmaster Hee Kwan Lee (Hapkido), Grandmaster Sean Pearson (Taekwondo), Grandmaster Adrian Garcia (Police Tactics), Master Bill Humbel (Kali) and Sensei Gardner (Aikido). In addition, Dr. Peter Kladstrup (Health) is a visiting instructor for the current retreats. These retreats are truly life-changing events that are not to be missed.
The retreat is only open to Adult (15 years old and older) Black Belts or equivalent.
