The Masters at Danvers Sun Taekwondo Academy would like to congratulate their students for their exemplary participation in the 2nd GTA-US Taekwondo Competition held on June 9th at Stoughton High School. STK student Virginia Rooney of Saugus took home the gold for her breaking routine. Ginnie, as she is affectionately known, is 82 years young, and continues to inspire everyone around her.
Our very own 8th degree Black Belt, Grand Master Soon Woo Hong, who has the distinction of being both domestically and internationally licensed as a 2nd Class Poom Dan Promotion Examiner through World Taekwondo headquarters, served as the Tournament Director. A total of 11 international referees were in attendance.
Mr. Lauralouis presented an Official Citation issued by Massachusetts Governor Maura Healy recognizing GTA-US, and State Senator Walter F. Timilty presented a Massachusetts Senate Citation. There were over 1500 people in attendance. Competitors ranged from ages 4 to 82 years. Danvers Sun Taekwondo students brought home 10 gold, 13 silver and 6 bronze medals. Congratulations to all who participated for making us all proud!
