Full Circle Tang Soo Do

Full Circle Tang Soo Do Welcome to the Full Circle Tang Soo Do page! Our goals are three-fold:

1. To learn to protect our lives and possessions from an injustice or danger
2.

Full Circle Tang Soo Do (formerly Platteville Karate Club) has provided martial arts instruction in Cuba City, Platteville and the surrounding area since 1987. Our school is family-oriented, and offers a diverse martial arts program which is both challenging and affordable. Our curriculum is based on the core art of Tang Soo Do (Traditional Korean Karate), the weapons arts of Staff and Modern Arni

s, and practical, reality-based self defense training. Through the study of different, yet complementary arts, we become more well-rounded martial artists and more well-rounded individuals. To promote our physical health and enjoy strong bodies and sound minds through rigorous and effective training
3. To become better individuals, by striving to develop our character and skills through deliberate, thoughtful practice, and hard work

The physical instruction in our curriculum is divided into six threads:

1. Tang Soo Do Open Hand Forms
2. Tang Soo Do Free Sparring
3. Tang Soo Do Power Kicking
4. Self Defense
5. Staff
6. Modern Arnis

Each of these threads will challenge you to develop new skills, and new ways of thinking and acting, which will enhance your life. You will progress at your own pace in a supportive environment, alongside others who share your goal of bettering themselves through the study of these arts. Focus your mind, be disciplined in your training, maintain a positive attitude, and you will be well on your way to success!

Congratulations to Sam who recently passed his test for 4th Gup (Brown Belt) in the Full Circle Tang Soo Do program. He has been taking on more responsibility in class by helping out with instruction and learning how to effectively pass along his Tang Soo Do knowledge to others. Keep up the great work, Sam!

Jennie Weber passed her World MATA Tang Soo Do Federation black belt test last Friday! This test culminates her long journey to 1st Dan after ten years of hard work and dedication, and requiring of her much patience, perseverance, resilience, reflection and humility.

In our school and organization, the curriculum and each individual's journey are designed to help the student become a black belt, not just get one. Each student is expected to undergo substantial changes, facing many obstacles along the way, some external but many internal. This is the Tang Soo Do way to foster real personal growth.

That's what makes becoming a FCTSD and World MATA black belt so special. Congratulations to Jennie on this truly impressive accomplishment!

A black belt test is the culmination of a phase in an individual martial artist's ongoing journey toward self-mastery. While each test is a significant achievement and milestone in and of itself, it's the journey to black belt and beyond that produces the most important lasting changes in the individual and the greatest positive impacts on others. Over the years, I've learned to take plenty of time to enjoy, reflect on and appreciate the journey.

Tang Soo Do, by design, both encourages and leverages the support of others. Many, many thanks to World MATA Grand Masters Jerry, Nancy and Josh Trowbridge for all of their guidance and support for me (Jim Lubbe) and Jennie Weber on our journeys. Also, a big thank you to Mrs. Tammy Humble for being an outstanding training and testing partner. Tang Soo!

Congratulations to those that tested last night for different levels of Black Belt. A true demonstration of perseverance and indomitable spirit. MrsTammy Humble 2nd dan, Mr Jim Lubbe 2nd Dan, and Mrs Jenni Weber 1st Dan
