This was an email recievd from someone who recently started TKD, who was looking to see a "Family Tree" of how UK TKD orgs have split and developed over the years. From the initial UKTA splits to, well, as present as possible.
No reasons, just when they occured and when different groups were form.
I think it would be an interesting and worthwhile project and something I would be willing to use the subscribers list to gain info from.
A similar US project might prove interesting as well.

Am busy with a similar ITF-focussed (rather than general Ch'ang Hon focussed) project for South Africa. South Africa ITF currently has 11 Kwan, all affiliated to the SA-ITF. The major two roots from which these Kwan developed are both from England, beginning their Taekwon-Do careers under GM Rhee Ki Ha.
Apart from these Kwan, there are three other Chang Hon groups that I am aware of in South Africa. One is with another ITF affiliation, the second is affiliated with GTF and the third is affiliated with WTF, but still does Chang Hon patterns on occasion, it seems.
All of this is part of a project I'm leading for the SA-ITF to research the history of Taekwon-Do in South Africa.
