Taekwondo

A few weeks ago we went to the hall and we saw a lady with a black belt. We thought we were gonna learn karate but we learned taekwondo. The first thing we learned was the tenets of taekwondo. These are the tenets of taekwondo.

• Courtesy
• Integrity
• Perseverance
• Self-Control
• Indomitable Spirit

In the first week we learned how to say the numbers in korean.We learned it in Korean because Taekwondo is a Korean sport.  After that we learned how to punch the basic. The basic punches are the nose punch and the belly punch. The next week we learned how to to the quick flick kick.  We added the two moves and we got a combo.

The third week we learned how to get out of a grab. This move comes in handy because if we master it we can buy us some time to runaway from our enemies. Then we did this for about 5 weeks of the eighth weeks. In the last week we learned how to break a board. I broke a black board. The black board was the strongest board of the them all the whiteboard was the easiest  The other boys did to. It was the last week and we were sad to let Mrs Robinson leave.
