This Week’s Highlights…

Winning on and off the mat . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4-5 Kenosha Tae Kwon Do has produced its share of national champions, but it’s not all about winning competitions.

Discipline is a major point of emphasis for Master Dennis Nelson, who has approximately 100 students ranging in age from 4 to adult. While learning self-defense techniques and how to avoid confrontations, students are also taught about respect and proper behavior patterns.

Local teams excel . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18-21

It’s been a great week for a number of area community sports teams.

Schools & clubs highlighted . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 26-35

The spotlight is shining brightly on local schools and clubs this week. The St. Joseph Catholic Academy boys and girls cross-country teams performed well at the state meet, the UWParkside women’s basketball team defeated Division I Loyola (Ill.), the CYC Steelers finished a perfect season, the United FC girls Red squad captured a tournament title and the U12 ACE Wizards grabbed first place in their division.

Kenosha Tae Kwo There is more to martial arts than just kicking and punching.

This is what Master Dennis Nelson, owner and founder of the Kenosha Tae Kwon Do Club, tries to get across to those unfamiliar with the sport. He currently has roughly 100 students, starting at the age of 4 and on up through the 50s, who are well aware of the philosophy. He has had pupils as experienced in life as age 80.

Students at the school, located at 2221 63rd St., are motivated to have fun while they learn techniques of self-defense and what to do to avoid confrontations. Some compete at an elite national level, while others are there just to get a cardio workout and relieve some stress.

“We travel all over the country and have produced a lot of national champions,” said Nelson. “There’s millions of martial arts schools out there, but I’m very proud to say that all of our instructors are national champions. All are certified through Kukkiwon, the World Tae Kwon Do Federation headquarters in Seoul, South Korea.”

Kids learn respect and discipline, and win a few trophies too.
