On May 23rd, this fine group of athletes competed at the AAU Region 8 Taekwondo Championship in Missouri. The theme of the day was perseverance under pressure for the kiddos, and they excelled!! Many of them fought on the fly and earned all the glory they hold in this picture, and more! These kids never cease to amaze us with how well they compete with determination no matter what situations they find themselves in. We are beyond proud!
Huge thank you to John Szyhowski and Jasmine Gallegos for hosting this tournament! We always love the opportunity to see our Elevation by Infinity family!

Coaches Anna and Allyssa lead the LTA team at the Clinton tournament this weekend, and they were BUSY! With a team of 25 athletes, they were coaching, mentoring, and competing, and they were absolute professionals. These girls are helping to build the next generation of LTA, and we couldn't be more proud!

This weekend proved to be one of leadership, with some of our high color belts testing the waters with coaching our younger athletes. We are so very proud of positive roles models these young people are becoming. This is why we do what we do!

Our team was able to bring home TWO team trophies for sparring! It speaks volumes of their hard work and efforts in training each week! Way to go team LTA!! Stay tuned for a medal count this week!

Huge thanks to IMPACT and Wanda and David Ludemann for hosting this event each year. It truly is one of our favorites! Your efforts in organizing the event do not go unnoticed, especially your nod the comraderie this sport brings. Your after party is simply unmatched and we love how friendships are made there. Thank you so very much. Until next year......
