Dedicated to Kids in the Martial Arts

Caitlin Mosley

Born in Minden, La, 11 year old Caitlin Mosley started in the martial arts, at Ultimate “My instructor was Mr. Gonzales, I really enjoyed class and all the other kids,” remembers Caitlin.

Currently a 2^nd degree Black Belt in TKD, she remembers how excited and proud she was to get her Black Belt in 2002. “It takes a lot of hard work to get your black belt and with my parents and instructors help I worked to earn it.”  

One of the top seeded competitors in the NASKA circuit, Caitlin loves to compete in traditional and musical divisions for forms and weapons. Her first tournament, like so many others, was a local event. “My first tournament was at Poff’s in April 2001 in Pensacola, Florida and I was a green belt. I did one event which was traditional forms and I placed first.”  This was only the start as she is still placing first a lot in the traditional forms and weapons divisions in the local and NASKA tournaments.

Not only is Caitlin a strong individual competitor, she tried out for the K.I.C.K. (Kicking In Christ Kingdom) Team this year and made it in January. “I have wanted to be on the KICK Team since I first saw them. The part I enjoy most is being part of a team where everybody cheers for everybody else.” says Caitlin. “I think my greatest accomplishment is getting on the KICK Team.” It won’t be her last greatest accomplishment.

Like most strong competitor, Caitlin doesn’t take a lot of credit for her own success saying instead,” I was lucky someone thought I had the talent and the martial arts plays a major role in my life. I want to thank Mr. Won for helping me get where I am now and for letting me join the KICK Team. Another person I want to thank is my coach Jonathan Boyd for pushing me and not letting me give up or giving up on me. Also I want to thank Mr. Marcel Jones and Ms. Amy Won for my kicks. Last I would like to thank my parents. My mom for encouraging me when I had trouble and my dad for being like a coach at home.”

Talent plus training, a positive attitude and the spirit to win, the desire to share and help others combine to make Caitlin Mosley a fine example of a martial artist and someone whom we are all proud of on the KICK Team.
