    There are two Hapkido dojos in my area. I have a few questions about them.
    The first and Darrell D’Antonoli is the Grandmaster. Can't find much info on him. His dojo is called Budo Shingikan. It seems like a McDojo where parents drop their kids off after school. But I dont know.
    The second is called Gilbert Martial Arts Academy. It is headed by Chaz Turner. His style is combat Hapkido mixed with Muay Thai which he called Advanced Combat Tactics. However I looked on the ICHF website and there is nothing about him.
    Does anyone know anything about these two dojos thanks.

    http://budoshingikan.com/faq - Japanese style, not sure why they would be teaching Hapkido...

    I'm assuming the town is called Gilbert? The Budo Shingikan site has the word "Gilbert" on the tab title.

    Chaz Turner turned over the martial arts business to Dan Brayman to concentrate more on his real estate.

    I looked at the facebook page for GMAC, seems ok and worth checking out...the page only showed small children, so I'd be concerned about having enough adults to progress with.
