Youth Leadership Project: Argentina

Dear Members of WMDK

Greetings from Argentina.

We want to share about our experience at the First Youth Leadership Symposium in Korea 2016.

It was one of the best experiences of our lives. We were able to share with representatives from different countries.

We feel that thanks to Kwan Jang Nim we have been able to build strong foundations for the future of our art, so we help with the longevity of Moo Duk Kwan.

The 13 countries that were present were represented by wonderful people and great practitioners.

Our common aspect is love and passion for Moo Duk Kwan. That motivates us to work hard for school.

In the meetings, the main points that were touched were the following:

- The identity of young leaders

- The role of young leaders

- Network

In addition, we had many hours of group training, that's why we were very motivated.

We wish to express our gratitude to the World Moo Duk Kwan and Kwan Jang Nim for their support and perfect organization of the Symposium.

We also want to thank the members of Argentina who chose us to represent them.

The photos below show our experiences.

Greetings from Argentina, and HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone.
