Costa Mesa, CA (For Release) – On Saturday night, July 27, SahyunNim Victor Teran, a 7th Dan Black Belt in Taekwon-Do, was honored for his accomplishments with induction into the Masters Hall of Fame at the organization’s 20th Anniversary Celebration.

Master Teran was introduced to Taekwon-Do at the age of five and earned his black belt at 13.

Following that, Master Teran worked for the U.S State Department as an Agent-in-Charge before returning to the United States to concentrate on teaching Taekwon-Do.
Master Teran’s induction into the Masters Hall of Fame recognizes both his experience in the art as well as his work in his community.
