Taking Taekwon-Do changed my life in ways I could not have imaged when I started. I started TKD purely by chance; I was talked into it by the guy I was dating at the time. After half my life spent in TKD (I started in February of 1987), I can't imagine anything else. It is who I am... but before I started I could not have imagined taking a martial art - never mind foreseen where it would take me.
