Carl Coulanges - Documenting Taekwondo Through The Sports Hit List

from A Black Belt Way of Life

Carl Coulanges is a born and raised documentary filmmaker from Queens, New York. His love for sports & pro wrestling led him to a career in media and broadcasting. He turned that love and passion into teaching. After graduating from St. Francis College, his degree in media earned him an internship at PBS. In an industry where networking is essential, Carl was able to make those connections to further his career. Now a professor and admin at Iona University, he decided to take his love for sports and pro wrestling to create his own channel, The Sports Hit List. A sports & pro wrestling channel on YouTube and social media that offers sports debate on everything current, past, and future of sport. Martial Arts came into his scope of work through a mutual friend and student of Master Joseph Lupo Jr. Never having been involved in martial arts, in particular Taekwondo, led to intrigue. A casual conversation and some video work done at a Black Belt promotion exam led to the start of the "Master Joe" documentary. A piece that he has shown to his students countless times as a learning piece. More documentaries have ensued from this one piece focusing on competition and Military Taekwondo. Storytelling is an art; Carl Coulanges is a master of this art.For everything BBWOL and The Sports Hit List, click below:The Sports Hit List - https://www.youtube.com/user/CoulangesProductions"Master Joe" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TvacFwaY6a0&t=866s"Master Joe - Journey to Korea" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qMI65CYgog"First Look - Armed Forces Taekwondo Team" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2I2lsYRo08AYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@blackbeltwayoflifeSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/276fCOHsnHb8YcakObQqWP?si=6cf665afac1043ebAmazon Music - https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/9d314fb1-51bb-4232-b3ab-60247520f343/a-black-belt-way-of-lifeApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a-black-belt-way-of-life/id1769633501Best Martial Arts/Mooto USA - https://bestma.usKickfit Taekwondo shoes - BBWOL at checkout for a discount - https://www.kickfit.usPress Record Studios - https://pressrecordstudios.com/New York Black Belt Center - https://nybbc.org/
