TKD Success Stories
I began training when I was 16, just after finishing freshman year in High School. At the time, my grades were Cs and Ds, and I had no motivation, no passion for anything. I always wanted to take martial arts, but I had no clue how it would change my life hugely and for the best. I was nervous on my first day, but the instructors were very kind and helped me understand the moves I felt comfortable and found that as I improved, they bumped up the intensity perfectly to my needs. To my surprise, my grades began to improve. I began to work harder at the important things in life, and to have a better connection with my family who also started to train with me. One year later, I was getting all As and Bs, happier than I had ever been! I kept training, and as I climbed the ranks toward black belt, I started to take on more in life I got a job and a second job, and just felt exhilarated! I paid my way through college, a huge accomplishment for me, and graduated 3.7! It all started with this Academy, and the values and lessons I learned while training. I now co-own LightSpeed Martial Arts Academy with my husband, Master Salisbury, and life could not be better!
