Consider Yourself…One of the Family

Charlotte Craig

USA Tae Kwon Do Olympic Team 

Charlotte Craig
started studying Taekwondo when she was 5, “the normal age,” she said. Except Craig had a dysfunctional kidney removed four years earlier, when she was 1, and the doctor didn’t recommend contact sports.

    “I’d beg and cry and be at home practicing even though I wasn’t really in classes,” she said.  Finally, her parents allowed her to go to the training center with her two older brothers. Inside, she would round up all the other little tagalong siblings and pretend to teach her own Taekwondo class.

Day one: Life in the village and beyond

Today we are scheduled to travel to our training camp based in Dalian, China. It's an hour flight from Beijing to Dalian and we must leave the Village at 8:30 a.m. to travel to the airport. Once again I do some repacking of clothes and items that I will need during the 10 days in Dalian. I do some footwork drills in front of the in-room mural of the discus ring at Beijing National Stadium (Birds Nest), then go down to the dining hall for breakfast. Today the weather is beautiful and the air quality and visibility are superb. I can actually see the beautiful mountains surrounding Beijing and I see blue sky in between the gray clouds.

The Olympic Village housing for the athletes are high end apartments built very recently with stone floors and beautiful dark wood doors, brushed silver fixtures and tiled bathrooms. Each apartment in the village has already been reserved for occupants to move in after we leave. There is a rumor that the price of the apartments will be based on who occupied them during the Games. I'm sure that the apartments occupied by medal winners will be worth more....I will have to sign the wall in a spot somewhere and leave a nice note for the family the moves in after us...


Girl is tae kwon do champ
San Bernardino Sun, CA 
The Performance Martial Arts Center is where Rancho Cucamonga couple Daniel and Jane Kim run a tae kwon do studio and teach children and adults the Korean.
 

The Kims' protege, however, is 8 years old. Danell Kratzer of Fontana was recently named champion during the national Junior Olympics Championships in Detroit. She beat a slew of contenders during a regional meet in Fresno before qualifying for nationals. There, her sparring techniques got her past more than 2,000 contestants.

"It felt so good to know I accomplished my goal," Danell said about becoming junior champion. Not surprisingly, the fourth-grader is hoping to join the Olympic team when she's old enough. When the Beijing Olympics begin this week, she'll be glued to the tae kwon do matches, keeping track of Charlotte Craig, the 17-year-old Murrieta resident who is on the American tae kwon do team this year. "She just inspires me," Danell said...
