Announcing 2020 Winter Training Quarters

After last Friday's early snowstorm it was clear we were out of time looking for a COVID safe training location for the winter.

We've entered into an agreement with the wonderful staff of the Lowell Marriott for the winter.

Until further notice classes will be held at the Lowell Marriott, M-W-F from 5:30 to 6:30.

Class size will be reduced for the winter so please contact us to let us know you will be coming.

Will we see you tonight?

Our team of instructors have been studying the new poomsae videos published by the Kukkiwon last week looking for refinements to the execution of the forms.

Monday we practice the tae guk forms.  You're welcome to come learn about the latest info from the Kukkiwon, or just watch our instructors including the latest updates into the practice of the foundation of our art.

Working on instructor bios

We're currently working on full bios of our instructors.

All of our instructors hold rank recognized by the Kukkiwon and the US Olympic organization, USATKD.

We're also working on a tribute page for our Grandmaster Roger Rodriguez.

Our club was formed when Grandmaster was trapped outside the country by the pandemic, trying in some small way to fill the enormous gap left by his absence.

Debut of the new t-shirts!

Monday was the debut of the new shirts ordered from Threads located right here in Dracut on Lakeview Avenue across from where we train every evening.

You can see for yourself the quality.  These were taken before we started training.  You can imagine that they didn't look quite so fresh after an hour of hard training in 90 degree weather.

You might also notice we're wearing masks.  We wear masks while training to demonstrate that it's not difficult, even when training hard in summer weather.

Wearing masks to prevent the spread of COVID19 is based on science and data from multiple sources.

Want to participate in class and forgot a mask?  If you arrive early enough, Threads has several designs for sale.

New banners arrived!

Friday we were proud to be displaying our new banners.  We're looking forward to sharing our knowledge of Olympic Taekwondo.

Our commitment-free public socially distant classes are free and will be free as long as the weather lets us hold class outside.

Now is the time to explore this great sport
