Melissa Holt

My name is Melissa Holt. I am a senior third degree black belt and ITA certified instructor. I have been training in TaeKwonDo since January of 1999. I began my TKD training under Mr. Heath Riggs and then started training under Mr. Michael Holt, my husband, once we were married. I have been blessed with the opportunity to train with Senior Master Bailey at least once a week since I became a Black Belt. This has truly been a great learning experience and has helped me become the Black Belt I am. Before I became a TKD instructor, I was fortunate to be involved in our previously existing Cardio Kickboxing program as a Certified Instructor. That was TONS of FUN!! Being a TKD certified instructor is a great part of my life now. I have the opportunity to help adults and children realize that they can "reach their highest potential". I have been married to Michael Holt since August of 2001. I cherish our relationship and look forward to many more great years. I have a bachelor's degree in marketing with a minor in public relations. I am employed at Baileys TKD and also by the International TaeKwonDo Alliance as a Academy Operations Support Member. I am daily involved in communicating with ITA school owners as a consultant and representative for the ITA.
