Missoula Taekwondo Championships
We, Missoula Taekwondo Center will host the 5th Annual Missoula Taekwondo Championships on October 25th. Hosting this event is our opportunity to bring our MTC family together and host other Taekwondo enthusiasts from throughout our region.
We have loved this event in the past because of the great spirit that our family has shown by coming together to provide our state with a fun, fair experience. There are many ways to participate including: competition, refereeing, volunteering in various capacities, donations of food and other items to the Booster Club and of course just being in attendance to watch and cheer on the rest of the Missoula TKD Center family. We encourage everyone to take part in this event in at least one capacity.
To register to compete please fill out and return a registration sheet by Tuesday, October 21st. All ages and belt levels are encouraged to compete, and competition will be in forms, sparring, creative forms and group forms. The Porter Family, who own the candy machine, will be paying the registration fee for 1 first time competitor from Missoula TKD Center. We will draw from on time registrations on Wednesday the 22nd.
There are many areas volunteers will be needed including set up and take down, sales, data entry and concessions. There is a clipboard on the front counter with sign up sheets for all the various duties. We really appreciate the giving nature of our MTC Family and thank everyone in advance for helping out.
Our tournament is our greatest and most fun gathering of the year and we look forward to sharing the experience with all of our Taekwondo Family.

Announcement to All who Visit MTC Each Week
Each week those who do Taekwondo at Missoula Taekwondo Center come together to enjoy classes taught at 2305 Grant St in Missoula. When students come they also often bring with them parents, siblings, grandparents and many other supporters. We would be neglecting a great many people if we addressed only our students as part of our family.
We enjoy having such a large extended family. Having such a great group of supporters for each of our students will help ensure that they are successful in the pursuit of being a better person through martial arts.
We offer areas for spectators and for young siblings to utilize during class time and we encourage everyone to use them. We would like the focus though while in the dojang to remain on the fact that classes are being taught continuously and are affected by the noise and activity level off the mat.
We ask that all people while in the dojang allow the individuals receiving instruction to do so without unnecessary distractions like excessive noise. We are also happy to have the space for smaller children to play in the “Castle Room” and would like it to remain an inviting spot for any child who wishes to use it. For this we would like to ask all parents of children who use this or other areas in the dojang to leave them as clean or cleaner than when they arrived. We realize many individuals utilize these spaces and would like to ask every one to just take the moments before leaving to make sure any areas used are tidied up. Also the front dojang is increasingly used for classes and Poomse practice. We would like the primary focus in this room to be Taekwondo , whether it is a class or just individuals practicing, please allow individuals in this and all areas the ability to practice without excessive distractions.
