Did you try the Cambridge JHK school? I got my black belt from Jae Kim. I mostly went to the Boston school, since I was competing. But when I could, I caught classes at the Cambridge school. The Cambridge school is completely different -- much smaller and much more enthusiastic instructors. The Boston school has a history of going out on Friday nights after full range sparring, but you wouldn't know that without knowing the right people. The Cambridge school hangs tighter -- celebrates each other's birthdays, goes to each other's weddings, catches meals together, goes to the hospital when we break bones, etc. I used to live by one of the head Cambridge instructors (Mr. Hwang) and I can honestly say I've never had more fun being tortured by an instructor as Mr. Hwang.
