We are excited for our Kick A Thon fundraiser tonight! The J. W. Kim Taekwondo black belt candidates will be doing tens of thousands of kicks in support of The BBF tonight!

All those kicks can work up an appetite. Anyone can stop by the Jersey Mike's store next to the DTC dojang tonight for dinner and let them know you're there for The Black Belt Foundation/J. W. Kim Taekwondo and they'll donate 20% of the proceeds to The Black Belt Foundation!

Grand Master Kim was recently in Alagoas, Brazil for a tournament hosted by The Black Belt Foundation. It was a great event providing a good experience and a meal for all who participated!

Grand Master Kim also did an interview about the foundation for local TV.
