Participating in these events can bring a variety of benefits to individuals, including physical, mental, and emotional growth.

First and foremost, karate helps children improve their physical health. This is because karate involves a lot of physical movements that help strengthen their muscles, improve their coordination, and increase their flexibility.

A Taekwondo Grand Master is a highly respected and skilled individual who has achieved the highest rank in the martial art of Taekwondo.

Often, parents and students ask me questions about how can one become a Black Belt in our martial arts program. And if there is a such a thing as “double black belt”.

Almost 500 excited and motivated competitors from seven states found their way to the Lewisville Convention Center, to compete for gold, silver and bronze medals. Karate students from as far away as New Jersey flew in to prove their skills. Nearly a 50 of them form our school alone!

Black Belt rank is where the true training BEGINS, not ends. Instead of learning new moves every couple of months, we will be taking what you know and developing it so that you can use it effectively and without thinking.

Everything looks peaceful and wonderful. But as two of the little girls are playing, a neighborhood boy, mad about being excluded from a game, went home and got a pocket knife out of the drawer of his father’s toolbox. He then went back to the girls and brandished the knife in a threatening manner.

TaeKwonDo has taught me how to make my body strong and flexible and the importance of exercise and focus. It has also taught me to stand up for myself, my friends, and my family, but that I only use TaeKwonDo as a defense.

I have learned how to defend myself, how to focus and have better self control, and how giving it my all in taekwondo can really help me even in school and with behavior. I try to get all three stars on my belt; sometimes I get all three, and sometimes I need to do better.

Being a Black Belt is important to me because it proves that I have what it takes to set and achieve my goal. It proves that hard work and determination will result in success. As long as I try hard and don’t give up, I continue to learn and grow in the martial arts.
