Brandenburg / Meade County Taekwondo Update

Jamie Brantley

I believe resiliency and wellness are developed through behavioral choices, including the many choices associated with fitness, nutrition, sleep, stress management, recreation, personal development, family relationships, social interaction, faith and service. It is important to educate individuals about ways to make positive behavioral changes, as well as provide active programs to help them enact these changes. I have been a professional educator for over 20 years, beginning in elementary education and then teaching personal development skills, such as communication and stress management, to adults. I am a World Taekwondo Federation registered black belt and USATaekwondo certified coach and referee. I have been instructing martial arts since 2007. In 2009, I began to expand my educational experiences into yoga, fitness, and natural health. Most recently I have developed and implemented programs for soldiers and veterans suffering from stress related conditions and/or chronic pain in the use of yoga, meditation and biofeedback as complementary/adjunct treatments.
