Receiving her Kukkiwon 1st Dan

Although Jenny tested & received 1st Dan over a year ago, she now received her Kukkiwon (World Taekwondo Headquarters) Certificate. Jenny is also honor student, is 2nd in her High School Class, and very active in the community and her church. She will be leaving us to head to the east coast for college this fall.

Congratulations Jenny!!!

Here are pictures of expected new WTF uniforms for 2013. I am not sure if these are for only poomse practice or the entire art & sport to replace the V Neck. They are considered a Y Neck and in my opinion are meant to resemble traditional Korean hanboks mixed with a martial arts look. I guess making it distinctive in it’s own way!!!

For more information on these uniforms please visit MOOKAS NEWS and translate it to English!

What is your opinion?

Congratulations to Master Royler Gracie for his promotion to red/black belt, 7th Dan by his brothers, Master Rolker and Master Rickson Gracie! I am proud to be a part of the Gracie Jiu-Jitsu lineage, thanks to my teacher, Master Wellington ‘Megaton’ Dias! www.teammegaton.net

Also, thank you for all those who supported the guys along the way and today at the exam!

Here’s an excerpt:

The concert hall at the Syndey Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 12,000 times in 2011. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 4 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
