VERONICA TAYLOR
As the daughter of a US Army soldier and growing up in South Korea for her formative years, Veronica was introduced to Tae Kwon Do (TKD) at a very early age. Her father, who trained and competed with the South Koreans (ROK soldiers) while stationed there, was himself a black belt in TKD. As she grew older, and based in large part to her fathers training and her heritage, Veronica always had a passion for training and wanted to herself become a TKD black belt. As a child and early teen years, Veronica trained in Goju Kung Fu, but when she turned 16, and she was able to access a legit TKD school, she started training full time. Veronica eventually earned a Kukkiwon black belt from a Grand Master. Kukkiwon is the official governing body of World Tae Kwon Do Federation and only available to those that are recognized as carrying on the true traditions of TKD.
