My mentee meet up / session was a success! I have a new mentee due to losing my other due to camp ending. We worked on her form, reviewed self-defense number 1-3, and learned number 4. More exciting news, she will also be coming to sparring on Fridays!!

Junior belts are fun to work with. They want to soak up all the knowledge and enjoy practicing their form more than twice.

I've been in martial arts since 2002. I started in tong soo do under Head master M.K. Lee in Pineville, N.C. After I broke my left hand during a colored belt exam, I switched to Taekwondo under Head master William Grady down in Pineville, N.C. I trained at Eagle Taekwondo for 8 years, earning my 3rd Dan. When Covid the dojang did not survive. I have now been training at King Tiger , North Charlotte location, under Grand Master Evins since June of 2023. I am excited to start my Masters journey, but very nervous at the same time. I look forward to meeting the other candidates.
