Congratulations to our Texas Tang Soo Do students who participated in the WTSDA Region 4 Gup Clinic in Cedar Park on May 16, 2026!

Our students joined martial artists from across Texas for an afternoon of intensive training, learning, and fellowship. From Tang Soo Do fundamentals and self-defense to weapons training, hyung applications, and kicking techniques, everyone demonstrated outstanding effort, focus, and a commitment to personal growth.

A special thank you to the outstanding instructors who shared their knowledge and expertise throughout the clinic:

🔹 **Master Patrick West, 7th Dan** – Tang Soo Do Fundamentals
🔹 **Mr. Stacy Godshall, 1st Dan** – Multi-Attacker One-Step Drills
🔹 **Mr. Robert Harrington, 3rd Dan** & **Mr. Robert Burch, 1st Dan** – Bunhae of the Pyung Ahn Hyungs
🔹 **Mr. Derek Berthold, 1st Dan** – Knife Self-Defense
🔹 **Ms. Svetlana Clifft, 1st Dan** – B**g Combinations & One-Steps
🔹 **Mr. Brian Toye, 3rd Dan** – Flexible Weapons

We are grateful for the dedication of these instructors and the Region 4 leadership team for providing such a valuable training opportunity. Events like these allow students to learn from a diverse group of experienced martial artists while building friendships and strengthening our Tang Soo Do community.

We are proud of how our Texas Tang Soo Do students represented our school and look forward to seeing them continue to grow from this experience.

🌸 Celebrating Our Incredible Moms at Texas Tang Soo Do! 🌸

This Mother’s Day, we want to give a huge THANK YOU to all the amazing moms who support, encourage, and inspire their children every step of the way on their martial arts journey. Your dedication means so much to our Texas Tang Soo Do family, and we are truly grateful to share in your child’s growth and success.

To celebrate, we hosted our special Mother’s Day class where the students became the instructors! Our students had a blast teaching their moms martial arts skills, techniques, and a little bit of Tang Soo Do spirit. 💪🥋

Every participating mom proudly earned a Pink Belt along with a Certificate of Participation — and plenty of smiles along the way!

We loved seeing so many families training, laughing, learning, and making memories together. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this year’s celebration so special.

Happy Mother’s Day from all of us at Texas Tang Soo Do! 💖
