Grandmaster Stylianidis was only 74 years old. No one else shaped Taekwon-Do in Greece and Germany as much as Georgios Stylianidis. When the founder, General Choi, Hong-Hi, died and left his legacy, many associations and schools did not know which path to take. In 2003/2004,
Georgios Stylianidis came from Greece and helped the predecessor of ITF-Germany to gain independence and free itself from North Korean influences. In 2018, he became technical advisor to ITF-Germany and signed every Dan certificate. We will all honor the memory of Grandmaster Georgios Stylianidis. Board of ITF-Germany.
