GM Brian Jang's Poomse Seminar

On Saturday, September 14th John McCrackin, Dan Andersen, and Mike McCrackin attended GrandMaster Brian Jang's Poomse Seminar in Waupaca, WI.  The event was well attended by taekwondoists from all over Wisconsin and Illinois.

GM Jang provided a refreshing look at all the Taegeuk poomse and also the black belt poomse from Koryo - Jitae. The group spent 6 hours breaking down the individual steps in the forms while GM Jang gave critical adjustments to our techniques in accordance to the rules and regulations of sport poomse.

American Taekwondo & Fitness is very grateful for this unique opportunity and would like to thank GM Jang for sharing his expertise and spending his time with us.  We would also like to thank Master Stephen Decker and the Wisconsin Taekwondo Association for organizing the event.  And also Becky & Dar Peterson of Waupaca Taekwondo for providing the venue.
