Name: Albert Abrahano
Major: Computer Science
Academic Standing: Sophomore
Position: President/Instructor
Rank: 1st degree black belt
Bio: Albert has practiced Tae Kwon Do for 6 years under the apprentice of Grand Master Byung Hak Choi, who also taught some talented students such as Master Craig MacDonald, Master Tim Terry, and Master Thomas Katz. After Albert came to Stony Brook, he has been training with Veronica Vajdova, a black belt graduate student in Stony Brook and former president of Tae Kwon Do Club. After Veronica left, Albert gladly carried on the mission to improve himself, and others interested in Tae Kwon Do, the Korean martial arts form. In the Friday sparring sessions, Albert often wears down his opponents with accurate blocks and hits, then lets out a furious combination of kicks as a finishing move.

Name: Jun Ma
Major: Electrical Engineering
Academic Standing: Sophomore

Rank: black belt
Bio: From Huang's Tae Kwon Do School. I'd be more than happy to help you if you have any kind of questions about Taekwondo, or anything else within my ability. Everyone's welcome to join us. |

Major: Biology
Academic Standing: Sophomore
Position: Instructor
Rank: 1st degree black belt
Bio: "Don't worry about it." said Woo. When you come to practice session, he will be there.

Name: Nan Wang
Major: Business
Academic Standing: Junior
Position: Instructor
Rank: 1st degree black belt
Bio: Nan comes from the same do jang as Jun. They were in fact together since junior high school. He is very experienced in Tae Kwon Do and his kicks are accurate and steady. Unlike Jun's lenient coaching method to students new to Tae Kwon Do, Nan tries to coach the students the tough way and push to their upper limits. If you are a person of strong will and likes the awesome pain during stretching, he is the coach for you. Unfortunately he has not been so active this semester after he started commuting from Flushing.
