No Class on Memorial Day

Monday, May 30th is Memorial Day, and as a result, there will be no class at PBSC. See you all on Wednesday.

Two Thursday classes cancelled in February

Hi everyone,

I just got bad news from President Elia. It looks like class will be canceled tomorrow (Thursday, February 10th and Thursday, February 24th). I'll see you on Tuesday. With the cancellations, let's try to start at 5:00pm for those that can make it so we'll go a little longer. Have a great weekend.

Pyung Hwa (Peace),
Sabomnim

No Taekwondo Class This Thursday (January 27th)

Just wanted to let you know that there is no TKD practice Thursday night. There is a men's basketball game starting at 7:00pm, which will be televised. See you at FAU next Tuesday! I will see you, however, at PBSC on Wednesday (January 26th). Everyone have a great weekend.

Pyung Hwa,
Sabomnim

The FAU gym is now available for workouts!

Club President Elia has relayed that the FAU Taekwondo Club can now meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning Tuesday, January 18th. The times are the same as last year, from 5:00pm to 6:30pm.

Fliers should be approved tomorrow and posted throughout the FAU campus, so keep and eye out. The fliers will state that the first day of practice is Thursday, January 20th, however this is for new members. All regular members are encouraged to attend starting TOMORROW (January 18th)!

Spring 2011 registration is now open!

Students may begin to register for class immediately, and are encouraged to do so promptly to avoid prolonged overrides. Instructions for registering can be found here.

Classes are scheduled to begin at PBSC for regular (registered) members this Wednesday, January 12th, at 4:30pm. New students are invited to attend class starting Wednesday, January 19th, since there is no class on Monday (the 17th) due to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. For now, the FAU workout times are still pending, and more information will come soon.

Hope everyone had a Happy New Year and is ready for training!
