The idea of this work is to reflect and be able to think about certain individual and group psychic processes that occur during the transmission of our art. We will not only look at it from the point of view of transmitting our martial art based on its principles and philosophy, from the appropriate teaching methodology, but also from the effects that the practice of Taekwon-Do produces in terms of boosting self-esteem and the relationship this has with the management and control of aggressiveness.

La idea de este trabajo es reflexionar y poder pensar acerca ciertos procesos psíquicos individuales y grupales que se producen durante la transmisión de nuestro arte.

A sad day in my life was, In February 2008, while during training I suffered a heart at tack. I was rushed to the hospital where a clogged artery was opened and a week later, I went into open heart surgery. I received four bypasses and some stents to keep other main arteries open. It took me several months to recover. Months I was not able to train and teach Taekwon-Do, this was a very dark period in my life. The good news was: I survived and the surgeon assured me this was because of my strong heart and body. Thank you, Taekwon-Do!
