Taekwondo Yellow Belts Earned By OPI

On September 27, 2007, one OPI participant, Johnny M., and our Program Director, Katie Mikolyski received their yellow belts in Taekwondo.

Katie has been attending Taekwondo lessons at the International Taekwondo College with many of our participants since August. Their teacher is Master Park.

In order to earn their yellow belts Katie and Johnny were asked to perform forms, stances, punches, and blocks. They were also asked to explain what Taekwondo meant to them personally in one word. Lastly, they successfully broke a board in two using their hands and then their feet.

We are all very proud of Johnny and Katie and wish them continued success as they progress in Taekwondo.
