One of the best things about Tae Kwon Do is that it doesn’t matter if you’re not a very athletic person. I was not an athletic person when I first joined Tae Kwon Do. I was in a really bad shape. Unlike many other martial arts that I have practiced, Tae Kwon Do allowed me to start at a lower level and then work on those kicks and forms to make them better. It gave me enough time to work on every aspect and make it better.

Tae Kwon Do is not just kicking (like many people believe). We do a fair amount of hand techniques and self-defense moves. Kicking is emphasized a lot, but I think the hand techniques are emphasized just as much. Another thing about Tae Kwon Do that I really liked was the respect, discipline and self-confidence. I don’t know if every Tae Kwon Do school emphasizes it as much as mine does, but I must say that for me it was the best part of my Tae Kwon Do experience. I just loved it so much.

My master helped me sooooo much! I dont think I could ever pay him back for everything he did for me. He treated me like his own daughter. He called me in early on Saturday optional class so I could run outside in the parking lot, because I had trouble with running. I used to get tired really easily. My Tae Kwon Do school was like my second family.
