The CDG Leadership Academy: Session #5

Last night CDG LEADERSHIP ACADEMY gathered at Zang Taekwon-Do studio for an inspiring and action-packed session that combined lessons in leadership, life philosophy, & martial arts.

We want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to Grand Master Rob Zang and his students for hosting us and putting together such an inspiring session!

We learned the key leadership tenets of Tae Kwon Do: Courtesy, Integrity, Perseverance, Self-Control, Indomitable Spirit, and Modesty. Through Grand Master Zang’s stories and guidance, the students reflected on how these values can shape their lives and empower them as leaders.

Then we all participated in a hands-on introduction to TKD, learning and practicing basic punches, kicks, and self defense.

The highlight of the evening was a powerful goal-setting exercise. Each student wrote a one-word goal for 2025 on a wooden board, symbolizing their personal ambitions and aspirations.

With encouragement from Grand Master Zang and their peers, the students used their newly learned Tae Kwon Do kicks to break their boards, signifying their determination to "crush" their goals in the coming year!
