Olympic Style Sparring

	All students are trained in Olympic style sparring. Olympic style sparring brings out the best of the students abilities, in control, power, and concentration.   Each student (young and the not so young) is encouraged to attend tournaments that are held throughout the year, to gain knowlegde of their level of skill, and training.  Tournaments are a great way, for young and the not so young, to find out their strength and weakness. It is the best learning tool to know your skill, discipline, and control. But it is also great fun to able to witness some of the worlds best athletes come to test their skill level Here at the Moon's U.S. Tae Kwon Do College all our students have taken positions in the gold medal for first place, silver for second, and the bronze for third place at each event they have participated in. There is a close bond each student has, in encouraging each other in one event after another, and is a unique family experience.

Members are often asked to perform at Special events, to demonstrate their skills in breaking, sparring, and weaponry use. Members rehearse a choreographed demonstration that is not only beautiful to watch, but is also used as a teaching tool for other students to learn from. Member’s trained for demonstration events consider it an honor to be part of "Moon’s U.S. Tae Kwon Do Demonstration Team."
