Latest in our student's adventures around the world! Aaron, a 3rd dan black belt at the Cambridge dojang, visited Barcelona Spain and Berlin Germany! While in Spain he even met up with a former student and trained with her at her dojang.

Some of our students went hiking recently and were inspired by nature to do some kicking! Did you know that General Choi, founder of tae kwon do, recommended mountain climbing as not only good for the legs, but the spirit?
