HISTORY MADE: TAEKWONDO DAY IS OFFICIAL IN NEW YORK STATE! 🗽
September 4th has long been celebrated throughout the Taekwondo community as Taekwondo Day — and now, because of the hard work of Taekwondo schools, masters, instructors, students, families, and supporters across New York, it is officially recognized by the State of New York!
During Taekwondo Month in New York State, schools across the state came together to give back to their communities, including hosting community self-defense classes and other outreach programs that demonstrated the positive impact Taekwondo has beyond the dojang.
We are incredibly grateful to Assemblyman Josh Jensen for championing this effort and getting the official resolution passed. 🙏🇺🇸
This is bigger than one school or one organization. This belongs to the entire New York Taekwondo community.
Because of everyone who participated, promoted Taekwondo Month, opened their dojangs to their communities, and helped make our voices heard, the September 4th celebration we have recognized for decades is now officially recognized in the State of New York.
🥋 September 4 — Taekwondo Day in New York State
🇺🇸 A celebration of Taekwondo. A recognition of our community. A moment in history.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible!
