227th Promotion Test Friday November 13 @ 4:30 for online students and 5:30 in place

FROM A PARENT One of my friends asked "Why do you pay so much money for your kids to do Tae Kwon do?" Well I have a confession to make, I don't pay for my kids Tae Kwon do. Personally, I couldn't care less about Taekwon-do. So if I am not paying for Taekwon-do what am I paying for? I pay for those moments when my kids become so tired they want to quit but don't. I pay for those days when my kids come home from school and are "too tired" to go their clubs but go anyway. ... I pay for my kids to learn to be disciplined. I pay for my kids to learn to take care of their body. I pay for my kids to learn to work with others and to be good team mates. I pay for my kids to learn to deal with disappointment, when they don't get that belt they'd hoped for, but still have to work hard in the grading. I pay for my kids learn to make and accomplish goals. I pay for my kids to learn that it takes hours and hours and hours and hours of hard work and practice to create a black belt, and that success does not happen over night. I pay for the opportunity my kids have and will have to make life-long friendships. I pay so that my kids can be on the mats instead of in front of a screen... I could go on but to be short, I don't pay for Taekwon-do, I pay for the opportunities that Taekwon-do provides my kids to develop attributes that will serve them well throughout their lives and give them the opportunity to bless the lives of others. From what I have seen so far I think it is a great investment! Taken from Sittingbourne and Faversham TKD.

Taekwondo's roots began as a martial art system for combat... then spread globally as an accredited Olympic sport... and continues to this day to gain popularit...y through incredible demonstration performances around the world. Taekwondo indeed fills many shoes... but let us remember that it was first and foremost a well respected Korean traditional martial art. It is our duty and responsibility as teachers and leaders to preserve our foundation... to lead our students by example in maintaining a healthy balance between tradition and modernism, to exemplify the discipline, customs and culture in our schools and to appropriately educate and empower our juniors to duplicate our efforts. This way, the wonderful art of Taekwondo may continue to thrive with dignity and honor for generations to come. -Johnny CW Kang The video features the Kukkiwon (World Taekwondo Headquarters) Demonstration Team with cooperation from the Korean Culture and Information Service and Korea Cultural Heritage Foundation. . . ... . . , , , , . , . -Johnny CW Kang . El origen del Taekwondo comenzó con un sistema de artes marciales para la batalla. Se extiende por todo el mundo en los Juegos Olímpicos oficiales y hasta hoy es popular a través de las maravillosas actuaciones de demostración de todo el mundo. El taekwondo realmente lleva muchos zapatos... Pero recuerde que fue una de las artes marciales tradicionales de Corea. Nuestra base es nuestra obligación y responsabilidad como profesores y líderes. Dirige a los estudiantes como un ejemplo de mantener un equilibrio saludable entre la tradición y el modernismo, enseña las reglas, costumbres y cultura de nuestra escuela de nuestra escuela de manera ejemplar y ayuda a los posterioristas a entrenar adecuadamente nuestros esfuerzos. De esta manera, el gran arte del Taekwondo continuará prosperando por generaciones con dignidad y honor. - Johnny CW Kang Este video es acompañado por la Academia de Información Cultural de Corea y la asociación de la Asociación de Patrimonio Cultural de Corea.

My daughter drew this for me few years ago, now she accomplished her first goal in Taekwondo.
