Way to go Alex, Lucas and Cole! The second high five goes to Lauren, Jessica and Emily who scored a double promotion at their first belt test! Each has been really dedicated and enthusiastic in class and it showed during their exam. Nice job ladies!

                                        Saturday November 6 not only marked the end of an 8-week test cycle, but it was also the culmination of years of hard work, determination and perserverance for our Cho Dan candidates. The candidates final exam began with a 2-hour session Friday night in which they demonstrated blocking, striking, focus kicking, forms and one-step sparring. They returned at 7:30am for a 1-hr session on ground fighting & escapes, 1-hr of Tang Soo Do training with fellow students, and a teaching evaluation.  It was then time to line-up for 4 hrs of detailed evalutaion capped off by continuous sparring, endurance & board breaking.

                                        On Saturday, November 6th we held our Fall Red Belt Test. We are extremely proud of the efforts of the 9 candidates who demonstrated the fire of a red belt.  Our theme for the test cycle was "Moo Do Jaseh", the Korean expression for martial arts stance.  Our red belts showed commitment to black belt excellence and the persevering character we hope to instill in all of our students. Congratulations to you all!
