2011 TRAINING SEMINAR
USCDKA KWANJANG COMING TO GAYLORD!
--------

Dear Faithful Students & Leaders,

I have invited my personal instructor, 9th Degree Black Belt, Sr. Grandmaster Edward B. Sell, USCDKA KwanJang, to visit our school and teach a very special training session called “12 Secrets of CHUNG-DO”! We teach CHUNG-DO all the time, but it is different when taught by a world Champion and Creator of modern-day CHUNG-DO! I strongly encourage all our students to attend this special event!

Sr. Grandmaster Sell will teach on subjects that will educate, entertain and inspire all our students to be all that they can be. It is guaranteed that this seminar will improve your over-all performance with topics on personal self-esteem and leadership, combined with techniques that can only be taught by the KwanJang! Such advanced training will strengthen your mind, body and spirit.

Come and receive the most elite Taekwondo training offered in America. Sr. Grandmaster Sell is proclaimed by the World Taekwondo Federation, Seoul, Korea, as America’s Taekwondo Living Legend! Let’s show our 100% support for this most extraordinary Taekwondo teacher. Contact me for details.

Chief Instructor Tyler Branigan

Congratulations Black Belt Testing Candidates!!!

Luke Olson and Bob Olson tested and passed for 2nd Degree Black Belt!! Congratulations Guys. You two made me very proud today. As always it was a very hard testing but they've both trained very hard this past year for this test. Black Belt Testings are normally from 3 to 5 hours long. And they are grueling, I know, I've been there myself.

Make sure and congratulate them Monday Night at class. ~ Chief Instructor Branigan

Hello Everyone,

So far we are down to Tennessee, its been pretty smooth sailing. Looking forward to the Conference events. This year looks like a banner year for workshop options. For those of you that are unfamiliar with our National Association check it out www.uscdka.com . We travel to the Florida Headquarters once a year for fresh training. This event is open to all USCDKA members at any rank. I would encourage you to put it on your calendar for next year, it is an experience you'll never forget. Work shops include anything from Traditional Forms to Breaking Bricks, and Hopkido to Tumbling.

On another note Just a quick reminder Next Monday Class is still happening. Tuesday and Friday evening classes will be cancelled. Tuesday and Thursday Morning Classes are still in session and will be handled by the more than capable hands of Mr. Baur. I am updating the calendar with this information now.

Congratulations Testing Candidates!!!
