| Master Ali Roshankish Studying first in Iran, Master Roshankish has been a student of Martial Arts for over 20 years. He says: "I am a 4th dan in Tae Kwon Do. I have been a 4th Dan for 6 years now. I have been doing Tae Kwon Do since 1991. My favorite technique is flying side kick and jump back kick. I don't have a favorite class. As long as it is martial arts and is hard core and I feel sore for the next few weeks, that would be my kind of class. My hobbies are riding my motorcyle, practicing Brazillian Jiu Jitsu or Mixed Martial Arts. Everyday is a good day when I learn something new and even better when I do any kind of martial arts with my friends or my instructors. I am thankful for what God has been giving me and I am thankful for all the good people around me." Master Roshankish teaches the Adult Tae Kwon Do classes. |

Mr. Vinny Araujo Students call me Mr. Araujo. I am a 2nd degree black belt. I have had this belt for 2 months. I have been studying Tae Kwon Do for five years. I have the honor of being a two-time Mass State champion and won 2nd place in the 2004 Junior Olympics My favorite Tae Kwon Do technique is the 540 roundhouse kick (2 spins in the air), because I thought it to myself. My favorite class is sparring because I love how it is so fast pace. In my spare time, I like hanging out with friends. Mr. Araujo is head instructor for the children's classes, and teaches adult classes on Fridays. |

| Miss Maria S. Students call me Miss Maria, or Miss S. My last name is too hard for just about everyone. I am a Second dan, or second degree black belt. I've had this belt since December 2, 2006. I've been practicing Tae Kwon Do for about ten years, since I started in the first grade. My favorite technique is the spinning hook kick. I love the speed, accuracy, and power that you need to put behind it to break a board or something. My favorite class is forms. I like how we usually kick before, and then mellow down with forms. I love forms because they're useful, and beautiful. Not everyone can perfect a form. Aside from Tae Kwon Do I love to read, act, sing, dance, play sudoku, and write. My favorite sports are things that you can do by yourself, like horse back riding, or tennis. I'm trying to learn to skateboard. Oddly enough I love school. Haha Miss Maria teaches childrens classes. |

Mr. McBrine has received numerous medals and trophies over the years, as well as winning both gold in forms and silver in sparring in the 2004 Junior Olyimpics. Mr. McBrine's favorite part of Tae Kwon Do is forms, as he considers it the most essential part for learning all of the aspects that Tae Kown Do embodies. While Mr. McBrine is also an active member in the community, being principle flutist in the high school band and Vice President of his schools GSA, he always has time for his one true passion; the martial arts. |
