pat leehey gma paper What Tae Kwon Do means to me.
What Tae Kwon Do means to me
My wife Chris, my mother in law Jan, my son Joey, and Master Griffin are all equally to blame for me getting involved in Martial Arts. On Christmas 2005, Joey received a present from Grandma Jan that included do-bok and a karate “how to” VHS tape. This gift caused Joey to become very interested in karate and he asked to begin taking classes. Chris wanted us to do this in the neighborhood and found Griffin Martial Arts. She gave me the contact info and I made that fateful first call.
We first came to Griffin Martial Arts to watch a Saturday morning class. I had no intention (or I figured physical ability) of becoming involved as I had multiple nagging injuries. Within minutes Master Griffin had Joey and I up and participating. I tried to beg off, Master Griffin simply told me “Let’s go - you’ll be fine”. As I went through that first class, I noticed that there was a comradarie amongst the parents and children that I had seldom seen between what appeared to be randomly connected people. As a newcomer, I was being encouraged and helped by everyone I was paired with. As a result, I was immediately hooked.
As we started weekday classes, we met Mr. Daniel Olakunle. He possessed a calmness and composure, and yet a fire that I desired. He stressed stretching and technique from the very first class. I began doing the stretching regimine and the kata that he taught us every weekday morning on my own. I began to see immediate improvement in my flexibility, and my back was feeling better than it had in years!
My older son Tanner joined in with us after a few weeks. I had continued the morning workouts and soon found myself in the position to help my sons learn the material and discovered I really enjoyed this aspect of this newly found passion of mine. I began teaching my boys at home, which took a lot of proding and pushing. I learned an invaluable lesson from this, but more on that later.
As time went on, I began staying on Saturday’s for Spar Wars. At first I was very apprehensive, worried about my stamina and simple survival. I was loved the contact, whether I was being hit or doing the hitting (I must confess, I would rather be the one doing the hitting). It provides immediate feedback on your progress and allows trying new techniques in a safe setting. The biggest thing I have learned from sparring is to deal with frustration. The process of sparring and then analyzing the days work as a group, getting others feedback, and then analyzing the it on my own has been an amazing learning experiance. I have learned to keep pushing, keep trying, and to not put my own mental limitations on myself. This continues to be a big hurdle for me, and I learn from every session, even though it may not seem like it in the heat of things.
TKD has meant a re-dedication to body and mind for me, it has caused me to learn and maintain a focus that I did not posses previously. Even though I continue to fight through injuries, I have re-found my body. I am able to do things in my 40’s that I never thought possible in my teens. It has literally become part of my everyday life. I see it in my work, my home life, and I see it as I move about my community. I have become more confident in my abilities, I am able to control my emotions, and I am calmer in my overall demeanor. I use TKD constantly when I am under stress, a quick run through Jung-Shin-Il-Do-Ha-Sa-Bul-Sung or a mental walk through of a form, will calm and refocus my mind and body regardless of the situation.
I have discovered how much I enjoy teaching others. Whether it be my sons, or a fellow student. Many have given of themselves and helped me on my journey, and it is my pleasure and duty to help others. Many people are shy and will not ask for help. I have learned to take a leadership roll and just start teaching. Some people want to learn on their own, and will ask for help only when they want it. I have learned to wait. Pushing too hard will have almost immediate negative consequences, through this I have learned patience.
I have seen the positive and negative sides of competition. I choose to focus on the positive and take from that experience all that I can. I choose to recognize the negative aspects of competition, and strive to keep them at arms length. Competition is yet another avenue for me to learn and grow as I
watch and absorb from others.
Lastly, I have found new mentors as a result of my involvement in TKD. People that I know I will be able to count on to help me with more than technique and form.

Cellar Kickboxing and Martial Arts
An International Kickboxing Federation world champion brings his skills back to campus.
Cellar Kickboxing and Martial Arts will move back to campus this fall with more space and hopes of attracting University of Minnesota students.The Cellar, which is going to be renamed The Cellar Fight and Fitness because of changes made to the programs, will be located on 2715 4th St. SE.International Kickboxing Federation world champion Chris Cichon is the owner and chief instructor at the gym, as well as an alumnus of the University.The Cellar is looking to attract primarily University students with martial arts programs in kickboxing, mixed martial arts, boxing, muay thai, fitness and jiu jitsu , Cichon said.The gym aims to help students become competitive in kickboxing and mixed martial arts and also provide a range of fitness and exercise classes that help non-fighters stay in shape.Cellar Kickboxing and Martial Arts was previously housed in the basement of Joe's Market and Deli on Como Avenue Southeast, but moved nearly four years ago to New Brighton for more space.The location on 4th Street is 6,200 square feet, three times the size of the current building. The new location has a full size boxing ring and two separate training floors, which will allow them to hold multiple classes simultaneously.The Cellar will have a grand opening Sept. 12, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. More than 500 college students have been invited to participate in the event.Cichon said he doesn’t think there are many places around campus that offer similar programs to The Cellar.Griffin Martial Arts & KickBoxing , located in South Minneapolis, does not expect to compete with The Cellar for business.Owner Keith Griffin said he offers classes that place a greater emphasis on fitness, not competition.“I don’t see it as a threat,” Griffin said. “Kickboxing promotes awareness, if they bring it here, it is also good for us.”Kinesiology senior Aurora Palmer said she has been attending The Cellar since 2007 and took a kickboxing class, among others.Palmer said she is happy to see The Cellar return to campus.“As a college student it is a little bit easier for commuting purposes,” she said.Nick Riley , 19, trains in kickboxing at The Cellar and won a championship belt in 2007, outclassing three opponents with no previous experience in the fighting ring.Riley, who is 3-0, said he is scheduled to fight an Alaskan kickboxer who has never fought before on Aug. 22.Riley has four years of training experience and said he spends about ten hours a week preparing for the fight.Cichon said while he hasn’t finalized a membership price for the new campus location, monthly fees to belong to The Cellar will be under $100 per month.

In addition, Master Griffin has promoted the GMAA Internal Karate Championships and the Hall of Fame Classic.
Master Griffin teaches to expect the unexpected, to look-listen and learn, to expect excellence, to be champions not just winners. Cool under pressure creates diamonds, as the school motto taught by Tae-Kwon-Do Grandmaster Jay Hyon: Jung-Sin-Il-Do-Ha-Sa-Bul-Sung When your body and mind work together -- NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.
THIS IS A BLACK BELT SCHOOL, AND WE'RE ON A QUEST TO DO OUR BEST.

Welcome to the exciting world of martial arts! From our pre-school programs to our martial arts fitness programs, Master Griffin and our instructors are dedicated to helping you and/or your family achieve your individual goals. Why is Martial Arts so Popular? Martial arts are so popular because no other activity can provide the same results as martial arts for each individual participant. Whether your goals are self-confidence, self-defense, personal development, fitness, flexibility or to earn a black belt, our school will take you there. Martial Arts is Great for Children Parents today are recognizing that the public school system is not enough. Millions of parents are bringing martial arts, as we teach here, into their children's lives to supplement their education. Carleton University, in a study reported in Psychology Today (January 1985), found that children in martial arts have a lower level of anxiety; an increased sense of responsibility; a decrease in the willingness to take foolish risks; a higher sense of self-esteem; higher level of social intelligence; and were less likely to be radical.
The Griffin Martial Arts Program offered through Community Education, is an excellent introductory program to Martial Arts for children 2 years and up. Learn tae kwon do ( Korean martial arts) learn safe kicks, punches, stances and blocks of the art of tae kwon do. Unique programs for the tiny tigers (2-4 years) is our Look-Listen & Learn program. For our Dragons (5-7 years) and Jaguars (8-11 years) our Leadership & Life skills program will arm children for the future with all the key traits of success and happiness: self-esteem, confidence, & self-discipline. For our teen and adult programs students will develop self-confidence and focus and insight to spot and avoid dangerous situations with the self- defense skills to defend yourselves.
We at Griffin Martial Arts America & Kardio Arts Kickboxing have number of different programs to offer even the busiest students. From our martial arts for children and pre-school classes to our martial arts fitness, and black belt programs we have a program for everyone.
