Day one of the 2012 National Championship was spent at the West Haven dojang for the annual clinics. Mr. McManus, Keith, Bianca and Butch were able to attend. Butch and Bianca took the White and Orange Belt clinic taught by Master Bergers while Keith participated in an intense Green and Red Belt clinic taught by Master Riley and Master Brandon Ferraro. Mr. McManus jumped into the 1st Dan clinic taught by Master Devita and then rolled right into the 2nd and 3rd Dan clinic taught by Master Kopf. The day was high energy and the Masters had a lot of great advise to share.
We finished off a day of training by heading to Antonio's restaurant in Ansonia. Kyo Sa Nim De La Garza and a few members of our Texas Mi Guk Kwan family met up with Mr. McManus and a few Seven Star students for an awesome dinner then a walk up to Seven Star Martial Arts Academy where we had an impromptu Weapon Hyung demonstration by the young ones of the group.
Now it's time to hit the bed so we could be up early for Day Two and the first competition day of this years National Championships. Tang Soo everyone!! Goodnight...
