Hi, I'm Patrick Burger, a 1st Gup Red belt in San Kil Tang Soo Do. That means, I am an advanced-level student, working towards my black belt. Having trained up to the green belt level as a middle schooler, I returned to TSD as an adult, and am now a direct student of KJN David Sgro.
I love practicing Tang Soo Do, and love teaching Tang Soo Do. I am finding that as much as I love martial arts and seeing growth in particular techniques, It is even more rewarding to see students experiencing personal growth. I mean the character things. Gaining confidence, getting braver, coming out of their shell. And sometimes, getting more cautious, and maybe learning a little humility. Tang Soo Do has had a huge impact on my own growth and character development, and I am looking forward to passing that gift on to the Miner, Kingsbury, and Lake County area.
Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have!
