I'll have to read some of your posts, they sound interesting! Feel free to go to www.ellsworthata.com , check out my blog. I write from the view point of an instructor and hit on a lot of topics around parenting, community service, leadership, and the life skills you learn through martial arts!

I have such a similar story, and it is great to read when you immediately connect with the person, like they are you.<br />My son and I earned our black belts this past December and I saw that at one chapter closing, while being very excited about what the next might be. <br />I started my blog, wrote my book (Living, Healing and Taekwondo - coming soon!) and generally lived out the taekwondo journey. And I am definitely in a place of "What's next?" Of that I am not sure. <br /><br />Here is my contact info - would love it if you would do an essay for my new website: Check out the Warrior Wisdom categories - and tell me what you think.<br />www.taekwondospirit.com<br /><br />Laura<br />taekwondospirit2012@gmail.comLaurahttp://www.taekwondospirit.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9923264.post-11525830979613787422012-01-31T16:14:59.642-06:002012-01-31T16:14:59.642-06:00Hi.

Going from ballet to TKD myself I found it interesting to read some of your observations! Recently our TKD club has made this video so I thought I might drop it off here on the off chance you would see it :D Just something to share :) Cheers everyone!<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bfOpIElLxEAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9923264.post-12577987290128784282011-02-25T00:59:51.163-06:002011-02-25T00:59:51.163-06:00Although I wasn't following your story all alo...Although I wasn't following your story all along, I've gone back and updated myself and I must say you are an inspiration to us all.

After searching for articles and info on women taking TKD, I came across your blog a couple weeks ago. I finally finished reading all your entries. <br />I've wanted to take martial arts since I was in elementary school. In June, my son and I started taking TKD (olympic style) through our park district. I love it. Similar to you, I've also taken dance previous to TKD and am starting a bit later in life compared to the majority of TKD students (I'm 34). Right now there's only 2 other adult students in my class.<br />You're blog is just the type of reading I was looking for :) I hope you're doing good in general and you're still continuing with TKD. <br />Thanks,<br />Carmen<br />frito_bandita @ yahoo.comCarmennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9923264.post-8204315838518362502007-08-03T23:12:00.000-05:002007-08-03T23:12:00.000-05:00I'm so happy you decided to do a "blog" like the o...I'm so happy you decided to do a "blog" like the one you just did the last 2 years.<BR/><BR/>I've responded to another one of your comments but I didn't include my email address and thought I wanted to this time.

Ever since the first post I read about Eli getting hit by a car, I've constantly been checking your blog for updates - it's a bit addicting, really. I understand the need for you to move on and let this story be, but I'll certainly miss checking your blog when I'm supposed to be taking notes in Biology. :P I think that I will continue with the odd post to my blog (mine has always been sort of an "online diary" anyway) and I hope that you will continue to add in your two cents where it's needed. Of course I'd love to keep in touch with you! I have your e-mail address already and I think you have mine (if not, I just sent you a new poem of mine, so you can add me in). Best of luck with TKD - keep me posted on how you and Robbie are doing and thank you for giving me a new and exciting perspective on martial arts for the past 2 1/2 years!TKD Rockerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07465935584038596468noreply@blogger.com
