Dear Grand Master Yun,
When we first enrolled our two older daughters, then ages 12 and 10, at your school, we had no idea that Tae Kwon Do would ever become such an important part of our family's life. All we were looking for back then was some physical training and regular exercise for our kids, with a little self-defense for good measure. But it didn't take long for the girls to grow so interested in the classes that it became a very important part of their week.
As our daughters progressed through the belt levels, they grew in confidence and skill. They enjoyed the classes and made new friends. The tournaments and testings were great opportunities for growth due to the challenges of competing against others and performing in public.
One of the biggest benefits of Tae Kwon Do is the self-defense training. While hoping our kids never need to use these skills, my husband and I are confident that if such a situation did arise, they would be able to defend themselves well.
We really appreciate the values that World Martial Arts Academy teaches the students, such as the five tenets (Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control and Indomitable Spirit), the poem "Just One Word," and the Children’s Home Rules. We love the emphasis on respect and the family atmosphere in the classroom.
Our oldest daughter is now a second-degree black belt and an instructor at WMAA, and her younger sister will be testing for second-degree very soon. Our two youngest children, ages 10 and 8, joined a year ago and are making progress toward their black belts.
We look forward to many more years of being involved with WMAA!
Sincerely,
Mary-Eileen Swart
