At a Glance:

• 2013 in review • Announcements • New Schedule • Student

Spotlight

Happy  New  Year!  I  can’t  believe  2013  has  come  and  gone.  KIMA  has  done  so  much  this  past  year:  belt  testing;  competed  in  several  statewide  

tournaments;  performed  demonstrations  for  local  events;  hosted  parents’  night  out;  held  fundraisers  and  charity  drives;  and  participated  in  seminars  with  esteemed  Tae  Kwon  Do  Grand  Masters.    

I’m  very  proud  of  all  our  accomplishments  this  past  year  and  I’m  excited  to  be  working  on  many  new  and  exciting  initiatives  for  KIMA  this  coming  year  –  2014.    

~  Master  Kim
