I am inspired today to write a review of Seattle Tae Kwon Do due to my experience in class last night. I entered the scjpp; tired, having worked out for 4 straight days (including a 6 AM morning run) and a long and stressful work week. Not long in to class I had double the energy that I'd had at any point during the day and ended up working out for two hours. This is the type of magic that happens daily at Seattle Tae Kwon Do. The style is always challenging and envigorating. In addtion, the community of teachers and students understand that through exploring the connections between body mind and spirit kids and adults are able to tap in to more strength and energy than we every thought we had. Sure, martial arts is not for everyone, and STKD may not be right for every martial artist. The cool thing is that the first month is always free (for kids and adults). The adult students vary from petite women to men over 6 feet tall and range in age from teenage to those in their 7th decade. I started on my 40th birthday as an overweight Mom of two who had never maintained and exercise program for more than a few months. Everyone is welcome to try out a few classes to see how they feel. Concurrent kid and adult classes make it easy for families to train at the same time. If you've every thought about training in the martial arts, or are returning to training and seeking a new school, it is worth your time to check out Seattle Tae Kwon Do. You have nothing to lose but a bit a sweat, and that you get to trade for a great dose of energy.
