TAEKWON-DO
Children and adults alike can learn self-defense, improve fitness, gain confidence and most of all, HAVE FUN!
Created in the late 20th century in Korea, TaeKwon-Do is one of the newest martial arts in the world. It is known for its emphasis on kicking techniques. Our class focuses on body awareness, self-control, and energetic focus. We learn patterns, foot and hand techniques, sparring, self-defense, and break boards! We teach the Chang-Hon forms as instructed by General Choi, the founder of Taekwon-Do.
In our class, parents may participate right alongside their children. Our students are encouraged compete first within themselves, always striving to be the best they can while still having fun.
Instructor Roslyn Bauer (2nd Dan) began her training in 1998 with Master Hups (8th Dan), and earned her black belt as a student of the United States Taekwon-Do Federation and the International TaeKwon-Do Federation. Ms. Bauer is a scientist, a student of yoga, a triathlete, and an outdoor enthusiast. She brings elements of these interests into the do-jang. She founded Paonia Taekwon-do upon moving to the North Fork Valley with her family in 2016. Her 7-year-old sons are members of the class. Ms. Bauer continues her training under Master Hups, and will be eligible to test for 3rd degree black belt in 2019.
