Aslo I heard that Chuck Norris studied Tang Soo Do as well. Does anybody know if this true? If not or if so, what martial arts did he study?

It was in South Korea that Norris acquired the nickname Chuck and began his training in Tang Soo Do (tangsudo), an interest that would lead to black belts in Tang Soo Do, Tae Kwon Do, and Shinto-Ryu Karate, and a black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu; and the founding of the Chun Kuk Do ("Universal Way")

Tang Soo Do was one of approximately 30 different Korean styles of Karate. In the early 1970s all the styles but a few, Tang Soo Do being one, united to form Ty Kwan Do. the national sport of South Korea.

Tang-Soo-Do has been around for a very long time, I have been doing it now for a little over 3 yrs. Yes Chuck Norris studied it and is well known for it.
