Guests were treated to a broad array of
presentations including martial arts techniques, computer
software services, and outstanding culinary fare.
The festivities opened with the Wee TKD Class working through
their regimen of warm-ups, marching patterns, self-defense
interactions, rolls, kicks, and punches. The Chamber of
Commerce guests as well as the KMAI staff felt that this
group of young martial artists did an outstanding job.
Following closure of the Wee class a number of older students
trained in an open dojang format, practicing hyungs, refining
kicks and strikes, and demonstrating board breaking.
Interspersed throughout the evening were opportunities for
guest participation. Some demonstrated quickly learned
defensive techniques while others showcased their ability to
break boards. Many of the guests in attendance expressed
their enjoyment of the unusual nature of this Chamber of Commerce
Meeting.
