Thank you to everyone who participated in the Madison Martial Arts Connection at Silver Lining Taekwondo in Middleton.
It was a great event. We all learned a ton and had fun sharing and experience the martial arts. Look for other events that build community in the Madison Martial Arts scene. It was a great first step.
