2017 AAU National Competition

We have some great news to share with the family this week.

From Monday, July 3rd to Friday, July 7th, eight of our TKS students have been competing in the AAU National Competition in Ft. Lauderdale, FL. The students have been training for a year to compete against over 7,500 competitors from all over the United States of America.

This is a highly competitive national competition where students from different taekwondo dojang’s come to display the technique, athletic skill, discipline, and stamina they have trained for all year.

This year was special for TKS Martial Arts because our very first Team Poomsae competed and won the silver medal.
