August 2-4, 2024
The Taekwon-do International
Martial Arts Immersion Weekend
Caldwell University, Caldwell, NJ
Hosted by Taekwon-do International

This camp is an excellent way for people of all ranks to develop their understanding of taekwon-do from the fundamentals through to new and fun challenges. 

• Spend the weekend with people who love taekwon-do as much as you do
• meet students from other schools,
• Learn from Master Instructors from schools throughout Taekwon-do International

The weekend includes 3 extended training sessions, plus training drills, plus a stretching and review session. Meals are included and there is even a lodging option for people who want to stay on campus.  It also includes that wonderful chemistry you get when you spend time with people who love your hobby too, and who will be happy to talk about taekwon-do as much as you want.
