Looking into which school to join.

[oni-no-nunchaku]

Hoi all,

I have recently moved away from my home country for further study. I used to train in Chung Do Kwan, which is an amazingly rare style. So I'm looking into starting my TKD training again. Now of course, the only schools that I can find near me are either ITF or WTF schools, and being trained in CDK I have rarely been exposed to either of these styles.

So my question:
What are the main differences between ITF and WTF? And being a 1st Dan in CDK, which school should I ask to join?

For additional information; I've heard that Chung Do Kwan schools are under the authority of the Kukkiwon, however I'm not to sure on this.

If you are part of the Chung Do Kwan that practices the Pyung Ahn and Naihanchi forms you may feel at home in a Tang Soo Do school as well. We had a couple Chung Do Kwan guys at my last school and they seemed to fit in just fine.

That was a brilliant idea.
But saddly there aren't any Tang Soo Do schools in my city.

Thanks for the advice though!

Other than tournaments, Chung Do Kwan is the only TKD I have any contact with. Sorry couldn't be any help.
