Master Bill Linegar
4th. Dan Black Belt

Experience
Master Bill began his studies of Martial Arts in 1972, studying American Karate, Ishinru & Jujitsu styles. He began learning Taekwondo in the I.T.F. style in 1982. In 1995, he had the distinct pleasure to be able to study under Grand Master Jae Young Kim and has been with him ever since as a Student, Instructor, Master and Friend. Both of his sons, Scott & Eric are black belts. Eric, like his father, has a black belt in both styles like his father.

Bill works as a Private Investigator and a Special Investigator for Insurance companies in fraud detection and prosecution. He has been and continues to be employed as a Body Guard and has found his training to have saved his life on several occasions.
