Master Nickie Quan
Master Nickie Quan is a 7th Dan (7th degree Black Belt) and has been training under Grand Master Shin for over 30 years. As a child, Master Quan was “high-energy” and always looking for adventure (or mischief, perhaps). His parents sought out Master Shin with the feeling that Taekwondo would provide the balance of discipline and athletics.
As he trained and matured, Master Quan would go on to being a successful student both academically and in Martial arts. He began assisting classes at the Camarillo studio while in High school to stay focused on competition goals. After High School, Master Quan was presented the opportunity to attend college in Korea, training in their Olympic sport Taekwondo team program.
After returning to the US, Master Quan resumed teaching classes with Grandmaster Shin, this time at the Thousand Oaks school. While there he finished his college education at California State University, Northridge with a Bachelor’s Degree in Marketing. In 2007, Master Quan returned to the Camarillo school to lead operations as the General Manager for Tae Ryong Taekwondo Schools.
Today, Master Quan is teaching in the community of Brentwood at the Tae Ryong training center at 11600 San Vicente Blvd., which opened Summer 2015.
