A Note on Credentials
We don't inflate.
The credentials listed here are the ones that have been supplied and verified. We do not manufacture biographies, titles, or achievements. When updated rank information or approved photographs are confirmed, they appear here.
Each instructor's profile also reserves space for their own teaching philosophy — kept distinct from the WTSDA curriculum and lineage. Those statements are being formally documented and will appear as they are approved.
