The transformation we've seen in Allison and AJ since day one of starting class is incredible. We love seeing how Chung Do Kwan has brought out the personalities of these two amazing White Belts day after day! We're excited to see how AJ's leadership and dedication to the art will lead him in his taekwondo journey and love seeing Allison's quick and effective precision throughout her basics and free sparring. Keep up the good work 💪!

Congratulations to all who tested in the past belt exam, we are proud of you.

One of our favorite moments this past week was our yellow and green belts teaching our new yellow belts and our no belts forms before class.

We're excited for the community, discipline, and friendship that is being built at our school.

Operation Spoonful: Success!

Reminder: No class today in honor of Memorial Day

Can't believe it's already been one year since we started, be on the look out for a little something special to celebrate.

One year down, decades to go

One of the most amazing things that happened over the weekend for Joe's test was the sheer amount of family members and students who traveled and sat through a multi-hour exam to watch their instructor test.

We could not feel more grateful for the overwhelming support we have received from our students for our own taekwondo journeys . We've truly cultivated something special with our school.

In addition, we would like to thank Master Blevins for giving Instructor Joe this opportunity, and all the 3rd and 4th degrees that took time out of their evenings to judge this exam. We'd like to thank Instructor John Mee for everything he has taught Joe and his determination to make it to this exam despite a recent surgery.

Lastly we would like to thank all the other candidates that tested alongside Joe, it truly is a special memory and it's these moments that are remembered and reminisced.

We're proud of you Joe.

Congratulations to our latest yellow belt, Mohith!! We love seeing the transformation we've seen in this dedicated Martial artist from day one to today.

Can't wait to see all the new discoveries this new step in taekwondo will bring.

Love Clare's form at the JPII talent show! From the amazingly flexed ankle, to the tight fists and bent supporting leg, Clare's attention to detail is impeccable

We were so happy we could come out and support one of our students, Rebekah Chauvin, and her stunningly vibrant art at Chesterfield City Hall! Check her portfolio out at https://www.rebekahchauvinfineart.com/
