KKC TAE KWON DO

I am out of class for the week, I should be back from NY by Monday the 7th! Thanks to Ms Stacy and Mr Watson for handling classes in my absence, as well as to all our black belts and red belts who will be assisting. A few reminders: -Waconia Class: new session starts this Monday 3/31. Please get on the list or bring your registration confirmation to class. -Belle Plaine class: new session starts this Wednesday 4/2 -Tournament students: Papers and payment are due by 4/12. You can turn these in any time to Ms Stacy. -Starting Wed, lower rank students who would like to sword spar for tournament are invited to stay for the first 10 minutes of second hour to practice and learn the rules. If you have practice sticks please bring them!

 We have been working on improving sparring in our advanced group, and have decided to add a Sparring Class. Similar to the Weapons Class, this will take place in the last 20-30 minutes of second hour, and is for Green belts and above. It will be a specially scheduled week, our first week being sometime in April (before the NTI tournament) date TBA. The goal is to practice full contact sparring, so I need students to start looking into full gear!  If you want to be included in the full contact group you MUST have: -Head Gear (face shield recommended, required for tournament sparring) -Chest Protector *Highly recommended:  -mouthguard  -groin cup for gentlemen.  I will be offering a 20% off sale on head and chest gear, order to be placed Wed March 26th . I also recommend checking for used gear online, I saw listings on FB Marketplace, check ebay or craigslist. There are many practically new listings. Feel free to send me links or screenshots to make sure it woul...

UPDATE: Class tonight IS cancelled. Belle Plaine registered students will recieve an email shortly. See you Saturday! Belle Plaine class tonight (3/5) should be cancelled, I am just waiting for confirmation from Comm Ed. Reminder of our snow policy- if the school hosting class cancels, so does TKD. We do not offer make up days, but allow you to train at other locations throughout the 6 week session at no extra cost.  I will update this post once I get confirmation! Advanced class: we will make up the missed weapons class on Wed next week.

 We will be doing weapons practice in all advanced classes this week. Green belts and above- bring your bo and chucks!
