I have been participating in TaeKwonDo since March, 1996. I had been watching my son taking TaeKwonDo for two years before I decided to try it for myself. I've never regretted the decision. TaeKwonDo provides an aerobic and a cardiovascular workout. It also involves strength training, and has increased my flexibility. |
I am a second degree decided black belt in the United States TaeKwonDo Alliance
(USTA). I will be eligible to test for second degree senior black belt in June, 2000. |

I am also a trainee instructor. I was planning to test for certified instructor in September, 1999, in Pensacola, Florida, but real world life got in the way *sigh*. The next time that I could test would be in January, 2000, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It seems like a long time off, but it will be here before I know it. |
