Instructor Profile Bruce Fisher – Redlands

PROFILE

NAME: Bruce Fisher, 3rd Degree

LOCATION: Redlands, QLD

BRIEF HISTORY: 

I started training in Taekwon-Do in 1986, where a work colleague was teaching a few people at Dunwich, North Stradbroke Island. The small class quickly grew into a club and my journey with Taekwon-Do had started.

 A work move in 1989 saw me in Dysart, Central Queensland which just happened to have a Taekwon-Do club. In 1991 our instructor organized a visit by Il Shim International Taekwon-Do – Master Daher. This Taekwon-Do was impressive and not long after, our instructor joined Il Shim International Taekwon-Do.

I attained my 1^st degree black belt in 1996. A move to Brisbane in 1998, found me travelling 40 minutes to an Il Shim club. I graded for my 2^nd degree in 1998 and started my own club in the Redlands that year.

In 2007 I attained my 3^rd degree.

Over the years I have attended numerous seminars and training courses with Master Daher, as well as the International Instructors course in 2006, 2008 and 2010.

The passion I saw in Master Daher in 1991 continues today.

 Taekwon-Do has taught me perseverance, to keep on chipping away to strive for that next belt or to better a poor technique and I trust my students will learn this as well as the other tenants of Taekwon-Do.

Describe your best moment in Taekwon-do: Gaining my 3^rd degree after some physical setbacks and seeing my first two students ( one my son) get their first degree black belts.
