Ye
Olde Renaissance Woman rises from the ashes of Ye Olde Font Shoppe. We are no longer publishing small press poetry books but if you're looking to do
that email me and I'll recommend a new publisher. However,
I moved to Tennessee and have decided to freelance the many skills I have
accumulated over my years as a computer programmer, teacher, martial artist, crafter,
and poet.
Come back and see what I may have to offer you!

Moved to Tennessee
August 02, 2010
After
fifteen years in Connecticut, my itchy feet told me it was time to move south
again. The background picture at the top of the page and the pictures in these
sidebar items are views from my street. I think I'll stay for awhile. At least
another 15 years.

Greeneville Tang Soo Do

Greenville Tang Soo Do is affiliated with the
Tang Soo Do Masters Alliance.
In our Junior class, students learn respect, self-discipline, confidence,
focus and physical fitness as well as the basics of Tang Soo Do. Classes are
fast-paced and full of energy.
Our Adult class focuses on discipline, physical conditioning
and motivation as well as traditional Tang Soo Do.
The first class is free!!
Class Schedule
We have found a location but the details still have to be worked out. We hope to classes running by March for one three month session before summer vacation.
Classes will be Monday nights. Until the school is established long enough to have a range of belts, classes will be divided by age.
Juniors 12 and under |
6:30 pm |
Teens and Adults |
7:15 pm |
Weapons/Sparring/Extra Help Class |
8:00 pm |
With regards to class cancellations due to inclement weather.
- If classes are cancelled I will Twitter and the message will appear in the Twitter feed to the left
- If Greeneville or Greene County schools are cancelled and road conditions appear to be unsafe at around 5:00 p.m., chances are that junior and adult classes will be cancelled for that day.
- If a storm happens late in the day but school wasn’t cancelled, karate classes are likely to be cancelled.
If a karate class is cancelled by your
instructor for any reason, an additional day will be added to the end of the
current session schedule. This prevents students from losing a class because
of a storm.
Tang Soo Do Terminology
Here are some study guides and quizzes to help students learn the Korean terms needed in Tang Soo Do.
Creativity in many realms!
