The Real Karate Kid Coping With Reallife
Below is the compelling tale of the young Grandmaster who never had normal martial arts instruction, who found their own Cinderella.

Joe Lovrek isn't any unusual to the problems and challenges that life gives your way. Joe was created in a little country community in Texasand existed in a modest truck together with his mom, grandma, and aunt. Joe's dad was absolutely out of the image, causing Joe with no male role model. A lover of action-packed martial arts movies Joe pleaded with his mommy to enable him sign up for martial arts. At the era of 9 Joe's desires can correct and he visited 1 month of Chung Moo Doe lessons at his local martial arts university. Joe found on easily and it was apparent he had an all natural ability that needed direction and processing. However, Joe's mom noticed the continuing tuition did not fit into her modest budget, and she had to get Joe out of type.

A few weeks later the colleges president, 8th-generation Grandmaster John C. Betty, usually called Iron Kim, named to ask about Joe's absence. Joe's grandmother answered the phone and discussed that though they'd like Joe to go to his faculty, it was not inside their budget. After listening carefully Master Kim explained that he couldn't demand that his teachers teach Joe, because they have to be taken care of their time, but he himself could prepare and develop Joe.

Master Kim not merely qualified and enhanced Joe's style skills, but he became the much needed daddy amount in his life and taught him how to be an honorable man. By the era of 14 Joe was competing in undercover competitions visited by well-known black belts and Grand Masters. Joe continued teaching and fighting with Master Kim on a regular basis until 1994, when at the age of 18 everything changed. Ready to assert his freedom and commence a new living Joe created the daring decision to maneuver for the location along with his pregnant girlfriend.

While Joe reached out to Mater Kim to allow him know of his imminent programs he was loyal, however depressing to view Joe move. However, a day later Master Kim called Joe to permit him understand that he would also move to the city and begin training at another of his Oom Yung Doe schools. Joe found an apartment for he and his sweetheart and Mater Kim observed a spot near his college. Joe continued to coach with Master Kim and discovered the desired expertise I thought about this

of fighting with flicker pace, which is really a type similar to the 1 inch impact produced by the late Bruce Lee. Joe competed in understanding 8 various kinds of martial arts combined Hap Ki Do / Ai Ki Do, Kong Su / Taekwondo, Kom Do / Samurai Sword, Tai Chi, Udo / Ju Jitsu,Kung Fu, Ship Pal Gae (18 Firearms), and Bagwa.

He extended to compete in underground tournaments and accomplish exceptional success by getting an undefeated winner winning over 300 battles.

A year after moving towards the location tragedy struck when Joe came to type to get that Master Kim had experienced a tragedy. Joes was heartbroken as well as in holes, so he went home to find comfort in his family--his senior high school love and their precious baby child. While Joe arrived home, he found not the love and luxury he was needing, but a letter from his sweetheart saying "Joe, I really like you dearly, and that I genuinely believe you were my true love, but I'm simply too young right now and that I need to stay my life, I am transferring to Mississippi and I don't want one to follow me". In the flicker of an eye Joe lost his only father, the woman he liked, and his precious baby girl.

Joe's life started to spiral outofcontrol as he attempted to cope with the increasing loss of all he placed near and beloved. At the young age of 20, Joe no longer felt his life was worth living and began sneaking into bars and getting swallowed on an almost a nightly basis. Since clubhouse existence contributes to nothing but difficulty, Joe found himself inside the center of battles against 6-8 people atatime, which landed him in prison on numerous occasions. This downward spiral continued until 2001 when Joe obtained an unexpected contact--Master Kim had returned home.

Excited to reconnect with his dad and mentor Joe named Master Kim, but to his dismaya woman responded the phone and told him that Master Kim thought like he'd broken Joe in his deficiency and could no longer speak to him. Joe pleaded using the woman and discussed that his absence didn't matter--that he missed Master Kim and needed him back in his life, but the phone went silent. This letdown further accelerated Joe's journey of self destruction and also this once undefeatedunderground fighter, continued to reject his education and discipline.
