When Mr. Rana Sadaqat Ali started his Martial Art training in 1987, he started with Shotokan Karate, Kung fu, WTF Taekowndo. In 1992 he found the ITF and Chang-Hun Taekwon-Do. The prevalence at that time was only to learn how to fight or combat. But he soon realised that Taekwon-Do is an educational art for imparting self-discipline, moral culture and mental discipline besides the physical ability and confidence to face important and crucial situations in life. The Taekwon-Do of Gen. Choi Hong Hi the beloved Founder of Taekwon-Do teaches us the importance of self-discipline and moral etiquette and that it is more important to be a good human being than a good fighter for the benefit of self as well as for the society as a whole.
