O JangTAE GEUK 5 SEON/Wind

This form holds one of the most

important concepts for the

advancing martial artist. Wind can

be a gentle breeze, yet as it grows

in intensity it gains power and

destructive force until it destroys

everything in its path. The true

martial artist can harness this

paradoxical strength and

weakness. The more powerful we

become through our Taekwondotraining, the more peaceful and

calm we should become. This is

the essence of the Tao - the Way.

Meet Your

Instructors

Mrs. Nichole Morgan Brown Belt.

Nichole has been training

with Silva Martial Arts for

about five years now, and

has been working with the

tiny tigers class for most of

that time. She also runs

Summer Camp every year

with Mr. Silva, where her

crafty background comes in

very handy for all sorts of

projects with the campers.

Outside of teaching at

our studio, Nichole also

teaches cooking, and arts and crafts classes for children.

Her husband Josh, and two children Kylie and Ryan also

train at our studio. Josh also helps teach classes, andrecently earned his black belt at SMA. Someday the

whole family will join him as black belts!

June Tip

It is very important to test

when you are ready, and not

rush through your belts.

Training hard, and

perfecting your basics gives

you stronger skills to build

on later.Very few people test every

time from white to black

belt. Most students miss a

testing once in awhile,

especially at the higher

ranks.

Try not to focus on testing

for belts or stripes. Instead

focus on perfecting yourskills, and doing your

absolute best!
