Dwayne
Eaddy
Over 20 years ago, Dwayne Eaddy started
his martial arts training in Hiep Tinh Mon World Matial Arts with Grandmaster
Quoc Dung, Master Nhan Pham, and Master Quoc Phong. After 2.5 years of
training, Mr. Eaddy was afforded the opportunity to test for the coveted 1st
dan Black Belt. In the coming years, Mr.
Eaddy would begin his life with a career as a soldier. The Army would send him
all over the world. At his first duty station, Ft. Drum NY, he studied Tae Kwon
Do under Mr. Decker of Watertown, NY, and trained in JKD with Kevin
Seaman. After achieving the rank of red belt in WTF Tae Kwon Do, the time
came for him to PCS (Change Stations). Every year he visited his dad and
studied with Grandmaster Dung in Washington, DC. In 1993 GM Dung promoted him to 2nd
dan in HTM World Martial Arts. In the
fall of 1994 he arrived in Schofield Barracks, Hawaii. The first thing he did was inquire about the karate scene. Meeting local Masters Ron Ponehl, Marcus DeValentino, and Wally Jay to name a
few, the next three years in Hawaii would be excellent training for him, in
fact some of the best he has experienced.
During this time, his training and kicking skills would improve as he
trained with Tae Kwon Do Champions Darryl Woods and Liz Evans. Dwayne would return to the mainland in 1997,
at which time he would receive the 3rd dan black belt from GM
Dung. Yet another PCS to FT Campbell, KY would be a challenge for
Mr. Eaddy, as the sports office was not supportive and there we no local
schools. After asking and searching, he
founded Master Vince Dy and began Dykenjuka
training with Master Dy for about 3 years. It was great.
They knew some of the same martial artists. Master Eaddy then made the very difficult
decision to venture away from the military return to civilian life in Columbia,
SC. Focusing on his career as a truck
driver, he took a little over a year off from martial arts. Once he completed the training for his second
career, he inquired about instructors with whom he briefly trained in high
school, Zach Soikos and Ronny of
Genova’s Karate Academy. He was successful
in finding them, but was disappointed in the lack of collegiality and sense of
brotherhood he believed to be so important to the martial arts and decided to
move on. The karate landscape had
changed yet he continued to train on his own.
He visited other schools and found that Tony’s Family Karate School had
Saturday classes, which was great for a truck driver because he was home on the
weekends. He trained there for about a
year. Master Tony ended the weekend
classes, which left him in a quandary.
Master Eaddy resumed training on his own. Approximately six years later
GM Dung told him it was time for promotion but it would be very costly. He couldn’t afford that. It was when he remembered O’Sensei Porter and
researched his organization. Master
Eaddy e-mailed him. In the meantime he
searched for a suitable organization but none would honor the rank he had
achieved for fear of offending current members.
It was extremely disheartening to find that money was such a strong
motivator in determining his worth, quality and ability as a martial
artist. Master Donna Ray offered him
refuge in the true martial way. He then
started working on advancing and improving his old organization, renaming it
the International Fighting Arts Federation.
Being promoted by one’s own organization is not considered favorable so
he continued to train and look for a federation/association within which to
promote and provide him guidance and leadership. O’Sense Porter e-mailed him, setting the
standard for him, and he stepped up to the challenge. The result was him awarding me my 4th
and 5th dan black belts; however, he still didn’t have the
leadership/fellowship he was looking for.
Master Ray was still his primary TSD instructor and promoted him to 4th
dan. Unfortunately, I was her senior
student and there was a lack of other senior black belts with whom to
train. Still searching, he found GM Patrata at a seminar. Master Eaddy’s wife, being a great judge of
character, loved him and Master Eaddy asked Grand Master Petrata to be his
mentor. He said yes. Master Eaddy then found GM David Srgo of
Fayettville, NC. He spoke in detail with
Grandmaster Srgo, who also knew Master Donna Ray. Over the next two years he worked on his
curriculum, traveled extensively, and journeyed to Washington DC several
times. He found that Grandmaster Quoc
Dung was not interested in taking his art to the next level. Armed with a vision of what martial arts brotherhood
could be, and the support of his wife, It was then that he founded the American
Hiep Tinh Mon Karate System. In Master
Eaddy’s view, AHTMKS is the most comprehensive martial arts system; it covers
every range of martial arts in a very unique way. The system is but my ideas that he has
researched /learned over the years. It is my expectation and vision that my
students will continue to develop the system.
Mr. Eaddy enjoyed a long and successful competition career, winning
many National/Local Championships, to include but not limited to the President’s
Sports Award and the All-American Award. He was a member of TEAM Hawaii
when stationed at Schofield Barracks in October of 1994, a regular on the
Karate Stars TV show and was the first to be featured in Master DeValentino’s Instructors’ Corner. In 1995 Master
Eaddy formed Eaddy’s Martial Arts Academy and the Vobinhdinh Hiep
Tinh Mon Fighting Arts Federation. In
March 1996, he taught United States Army soldiers in Sinai, Egypt. Eaddy’s Martial Arts closed in October 1997
and re-opened in 2005 as the World Martial Arts Training Center. The Federation was renamed the International
Fighting Arts Federation (IFAF).
A member of the United States Martial Arts Association (USMA) under
O’Sensei Porter, in which he is a Certified Rank Examiner, Master Eaddy has
cross training experience in martial arts as: American Kenpo; Chuck Norris Tang Soo Do
System; Shoalin Wushu; and Dykenjuka.
Master Eaddy has served as a Combatives Instructor to the soldiers of the United
States Army Civil Affairs and Psychological Operations unit. He serves his
country well, joining the military in 1990 as an infantryman, serving with the
10th Mountain Infantry Division, the 25th Infantry
Division, and the 101st Airborne Infantry Division. He now serves as an instructor for Civil
Affairs and Psychological Operations soldiers in Ft. Bragg, NC. Master Eaddy has had training, classes or seminars with
such notables as Grandmaster Wally Jay, Grandmaster Gary Alexander, Grandmaster
James Johnson, O’Sensei Phil Porter, Grandmaster Marcus DeValentino,
Grandmaster Patrata, Master Ron Pohnel, Grandmaster David Sgro, Instructor
Kevin Seaman, and Tang Soo
Do Moo Duk Kwan his primary instructor was Master Donna Ray.
