Korea's Best article in the October 2007 issue of Black Belt magazine
I am honored to be featured in the "Korea's Best" article in the October 2007 issue of Black Belt Magazine. I know a couple of the other people featured, and know of many others. It is quite an honor to be included with such fine martial artists.
The article "Korea's Best: 20 Masters Reveal the True Treasures of the Land of the Morning Calm" was compiled by Edward Pollard.
From the article regarding Korean martial arts:
"Its arts teach Americans a host of skills and attitudes that, year in and year out, are improving the lives of their students. The following is a list of some of those benefits as identified by 20 movers and shakers in the martial arts."
This was how the quote of mine was presented in the magazine:
Alain Burrese
Hapkido teacher, author
"One of the most significant facets of training in the Korean arts is the relationships you form with your instructors and fellow practitioners. When I returned to Korea to train in 1997, one of my teachers, Lee Jun-kyu, provided me with a place to stay. I lived with him and his family and trained in every class he taught. When we were not in the dojang, I did many other things with them. These memories are extremely important to me."

You can also check out a feature on a friend of mine, author Barry Eisler.
Yours in Training,
Alain
