Several years ago, I was training in and teaching Haidong Gumdo, a Korean Sword Martial Art, independent of any organizations.  A fellow Sa Bom Nim in Dang Soo Do, and Haidong Gumdo out in Arizona, sent a message about a Korean swordsman he just hosted, and that I should host him in Texas as well. You can read about the rest of it in my other blog post - [Way of the sword](https://rockholdkarate.com/blog/way-of-the-sword "Way of the sword"). Anyway, read it after you read this one.

Long story short, I was reintroduced to archery through Kummooyeh. The last time I did archery was around middle school age, so several decades back. Was introduced to archery by my Dad and his Dad, of course, I loved it. But sometimes life happens, and things fall aside, and before you know it, years fly by.

Anyway, my passion for archery was reignited, and I wanted to do more than just traditional Korean archery. Unfortunately, there weren't many options in the area. So I started researching what archery organizations were out there. A ton of small ones just in Texas alone, but I wanted to be part of something bigger. Enter USA Archery, which happens to be the home of the USA Olympic Archery Team, which got my attention. Deep diving I went and discovered I could get training and certification to become an archery coach.

This would solve several problems I had, finding an organization and a mentor, and then providing archery to my local community since it was lacking. I found my archery coach based in the Dallas area; she was one of two women who were the highest-ranking coaches in Texas at the time. She was also a powerlifter and was getting her doctorate in Kinesiology. When I met her at her training courses, I knew this was the archery coach for me.

I was already teaching Korean archery as part of the Kummooyeh program, but I wanted to do more archery since the community was underserved. Inspired by my USA Archery Level II Instructor certification, I beta tested my Archery for Homeschoolers program, and it took off. This then led to the introduction of Rockhold Archery, which offers USA Archery programs: Explore Archery, JOAD, and Adult Archery. I am also a dealer for Lancaster Archery Supply, so I can tailor equipment to my clients' archery needs.
