Celebrate CHOSUN'S 27th Year
As we enter another holiday season, as always, the Chosun Taekwondo Academy offers an anecdote to the frenetic pace that can envelop us.
As you make your "to do" list and check it twice... don't forget your training... it is a steadfast constant and provides the needed respite from the stress of the season. Chosun is unique in that we offer many programs to stay calm and centered...
The Chosun Yoga program, ongoing Qigong classes and meditation classes offer ways to find the true joy of the season by engaging in age-old practices that help us connect to the human spirit and humanity.
We wish you the happiest of holidays!

April is an important month in Taekwondo history because, on April 11, 1955, the word taekwondo was coined and it is considered the birthday of traditional taekwondo. This month also marks one year since the official rebranding of the United States Taekwondo Association, created by Grandmaster Richard Chun in 1980. To help celebrate the United States Taekwondo Alliance, join us for a Special Sparring Seminar on April 14th. Details below...

Dear Martial Arts Enthusiast,

Welcome to the March 2024 edition and the 166th issue of the
Chosun Taekwondo Academy / United States Taekwondo Alliance
E-newsletter!

March is Women's History Month The 2024 National Women’s History Theme

“Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity and Inclusion”

"Today, equity, diversity and inclusion are powerful driving forces that are having a wide-ranging impact on our country. As members of families, civic and community groups, businesses and legislative bodies, women are in the

forefront of reevaluating the status quo."
In that spirit, let's celebrate all the women and girls who persevere in the martial art of taekwondo despite forces that seek to discriminate on the
basis of gender.
To learn more, read Grandmaster Cook's article, Invoking the Tigress 2019 to hear the stories of several CHOSUN taekwondo women warriors in the Martial Musings section below.

Dear Martial Arts Enthusiast,

Welcome to the January 2024 edition and the 164th issue of the
Chosun Taekwondo Academy E-newsletter!
The month of January takes its name from the Roman god, Janus who is depicted as having two faces on one head; one looking ahead toward the unfolding future and one to the past. The many successes we have shared as a school body over the years have laid a strong foundation as we take a step into the future. We count our blessings and proceed with confidence and resolve.
Happy New Year!
