Demo Team—The Big Show

Every year that we have been in business we have participated in First Night Missoula with a demonstration performed by our students and every year it has gotten bigger and bigger. Crowds gather to watch our high flying kicks and powerful board and brick breaking but are captivated by our performance because they can see themselves in each of the performers.  Our demo teams have always been made up of all ages and belt levels and we are most proud of the diversity represented in our yearly performance.

This year we invite you.  

Come be part of this fantastic group and share with your family and community your passion and hard work.  

Practices begin December 4th and will meet Tuesdays and Thursdays from 7-7:30 until December 20th.  There will also be daily practices December 26-28th, 5:30-6:30. 

Additional practices may be scheduled. On New Year’s Eve we will begin practicing at 11:30AM. The performance is December 31st at 3:45PM in JC Penny Court at Southgate Mall.  Our performers will all receive a First Night button that will allow them to partake in the city wide activities.  

Please sign up at the dojang and make every effort to be at all the practices.

New Year's Demo and Upcoming Demo at the Mall

For the sixth year in a row the Missoula Taekwondo Center Demonstration Team performed in Missoula's First Night celebration. First Night Missoula is our home town's version of an international phenomenon of alcohol free celebrations of the arts.



The MTC Demo Team provided a wonderful and well attended performance at Southgate Mall. (pictures) This year's performance had yellow through 4th degree Black Belts and Master Rosbarsky.

New this year were some powerful brick breaking by our female black belts and Davey and Shawn. Abbey preceded Mr. Rosbarsky's apple off the sword with one of her own.


The Demo Team will also be performing as part of the Health Fair at Southgate Mall on January 5th at 1:30pm. The performance will take place at JC Penney court. If you missed the New Year's Eve demonstration this will be a good opportunity to see all 21 of these martial artists show the skills they have worked hard to perfect.
