Mrs. Haylee started doing Taekwon-Do when she was 6 years old. She started after following the steps of both her cousins that started before her. It was difficult at the beginning like any other training but she was always determined in continuing regardless the struggles. Haylee is one of my students that started when DO-Martial Arts was founded and going throughout all the Junior and ITF programs. It has been a journey but she managed to accomplished what a lot of other students couldn't and we are proud of her accomplishments and her growth not only in TKD but in her persona and skills.
