Andersen MY ST 1 TAEKWONDO CLASS

Mr.Thomas Lukaszewicz-2nd Degree Black Belt-Trainee Instructor
My name is Thomas Lukaszewicz, and I am currently a first-degree Black Belt in Taekwondo. I started the sport when I was around twelve years old, and I have loved being part of it ever since. When I first started, I considered myself to be a shy person. I really wanted to learn a martial art, but I often kept to myself. After a few months of class however, I really started to see myself changing into a much more outgoing person. To me, Taekwondo is a sport in which you can make some of your greatest friends, while learning information that could save your life.
Although some of my fondest memories of the sport are from tournaments and belt testings, the incredible community is what keeps me involved. While there are many things I love about our school, the two that stick out the most are our dedicated instructors and the rigorous training we offer. This is a sport in which you can make lifelong friends, and I can’t recommend taekwondo enough to anyone who is looking to challenge themselves in meaningful

My name is Michael Lukaszewicz, I’m 17 years old, and I’ve been doing Taekwondo since January 2014. After 4 years of hard work and dedication, I received my black belt on April 21st, 2018. I do Taekwondo mainly for self defense and exercise, and I doubt I could have found something better. A big part of Taekwondo is growing as a person. It creates a good work ethic, respect, responsibility, confidence, good judgement, and leadership.
I’ve been doing Taekwondo since 2014, and I’ve never considered quitting because of how beneficial and enjoyable it is for me. Outside of Taekwondo, I go to Creighton Prep, where I’m involved in the zoology club. In zoology, we mainly just feed the animals and make sure they have enough water. We have 4 fully grown snakes, a bearded dragon, a tarantula, and more leopard geckos than I can count. We also have some aquatic animals like an axolotl, a bass, and a tank of piranhas. I’m planning on going to UNL to study biochemical engineering, or go into law.
Long term, I would like to work in medicine or get into politics.

Mr.Andrew Kula-1st Degree Black Belt-Trainee Instructor
I was born at a very young age. Eight years after that fateful day, I took it upon myself to join a great community known as taekwondo. At the time I thought that I would become a ninja or a power ranger, but taekwondo helped me realize the truth. One day I may have to protect myself. No one looks forward to the day a nice friendly person comes to mug you, but it can happen to everyone. I'm not saying everyone should race to the nearest martial arts studio, it would be nice, but taekwondo, like Nebraska is not for everyone.
I will NEVER regret joining Andersen Taekwondo al those years ago and would recommend it to anyone whether they want to workout or just make friends.
In conclusion, taekwondo is a great sport and great martial art. If you are reading this it means you are interested, so you should definitely join.
