Why KellyAnn Clouser Loves Taekwondo
by KellyAnn Clouser

I like Taekwond because it is active. I like to scream and kick stuff. I like to wear the uniform and get belts. You get to learn more stuff. If a stranger tries to get you when you are out by yourself you can use twist away to escape. You get stronger and healthier. You get smarter. It is a good sport. I like to break the boards with the firecrackers in it. When I grow up I'm going to make a taekwondo bobble head. I like to watch taekwondo movies and I like to spar. It is a good hobby.
