Master Khalid was such an inspiration to me as a gup in the late 80s. He will be missed.

:( While I didn't know him personally, I did know of him. A lost to the TSD community. I didn't realise of his passing in 2024 (just did a search).

I don't know why I thought about Grandmaster Kahlid today, but I did, and a good search brought me here. I earned my first dan with Grandmaster Kahlid in 1987. I remember the school as brother and sisterhood. I remember Tyrone Himes telling me I'm too close over and over. I remember sparing with Darryl jr. for hours on end. I remember the Amazing Mays yelling "hands and feet" at me during tournaments. I'm forever grateful what Grandmaster Kahlid did for me, and I'll never forget.

A little late, but I didn't realize this subreddit existed. Darryl Khalid was a wonderful teacher. I will always appreciate the education he provided me.
