Chi Taekwon Do, Miami, Florida, first opened in 1981 located in a small strip mall with
1000 square feet of space, founded by Grandmaster Steiner, presently 9th Dan. The continued
growth of Chi Taekwon Do over the following years, caused school expansions and several
physical moves in Miami, which culminated in permanent state of the art headquarters
to be built and owned in 1990.
In 1983, Mr. Francis Lue, presently 6th Dan, relocated and founded Chi Taekwon Do in
Punto Fijo, Venezuela, and also experienced continued growth which today includes
several schools in Caracas and schools in many cities in Venezuela.
In 2004, Chi Taekwon Do continued its
growth by the addition of another school
center in Miami Shores, Florida, headed by
Master Aaron Fruitstone, presently 7th Dan.
School age students are accepted for
continuing training at all Chi schools as long
as they maintain a B average and any
student may train at all of our schools without contracts.
Written manuals for every level contain the training curriculum for all students, consisting
of fundamental hand and foot exercises, patterns-the application of fundamental exercises
practiced against an imaginary opponent, sparring- the application of fundamental
movements and patterns against a moving opponent, self defense- consisting of sweeping,
throwing, pressure points and joint attacks, as well as the required breaking of lumber and
concrete, not to mention history and philosophy. Besides a physical exam, students are also
required to take a written exam, and at the Black Belt level, also write a thesis, teach and
perform community service. Courses are also taught to students who have special needs.
