2009 Keimyung President’s Cup TMA Open Tournament
Yesterday the BirdieSisters competed in their 8th taekwondo tournament. It was held at Rolling Meadows High School in Rolling Meadows, Illinois. Erica Jackson competed in breaking and sparring, while Myah Jackson competed in breaking.
BirdieSister Erica Jackson’s breaking was 6 breaks (elbow strike, back fist strike, round- house kick, tornado kick, reverse side kick and jumping side kick). This prove to be a winning combination. Erica placed 1st in sparring as well, winning two very tough matches.
BirdieSister Myah Jackson’s breaks were 2 tornado kicks, jumping front sap kick, reverse side kick, jumping round house kick and jumping front side kick. This combination also propelled Myah Jackson into 1st place in her breaking.
Making his first appearance at a taekwondo competition was the youngest Jackson, John. At age 4 and after only 3 weeks of lessons, John finished 2nd in his breaking group.
