Tracy is one half of the brilliant LezWatch duo, a wonderful contributor of the Wordpress community, and owner and operator of family owned Yikes Inc, web design company.  How on earth does she have time for all this? We talked to her a bit about her busy schedule, updates on the LezWatch database, and an VERY educational conversation about what really happened when two ladies want to make a baby, which TV gets almost 100% wrong!

O’Malley Tae Kwon Do Center teaches traditional martial art and practical self defense for men, women and children. The program is an individualized and comprehensive approach to helping students achieve their fitness levels. Instead of only focusing on a student’s strength, Mr. O’Malley helps overcome his or her unique challenges. Mr. O’Malley created a unique program to teach children and adults how to be confident and powerful on the inside and out. In additional to Tae Kwon Do hand and kicking techniques, Mr. O’Malley has made self defense modules a requirement for all students. During day and summer camps at O’Malley Tae Kwon Do Center, Mr. O’Malley creates workshops for young campers to practice power poses, learn extensive self protection strategy, and participate in anti-bully programs conducted police officers. Beyond Tae Kwon Do practice, Mr. O’Malley has introduced a line-up of extraordinary people who teach his students in a variety of subjects and skills. Ralph Peterson Jr. (Jazz musician and professor at Berkelee) teaches students how to play drums; Xiang Li (renowned artist from the Forbidden City of Beijing, China) has conducted a series of art workshops for children and adults; Tracy Levesque (artist and assistant instructor) has her beautiful artworks displayed inside the school. Adam Leffert (an experienced technology consultant) who has been Mr. O’Malley’s student since the age of 14 still studies and teaches (part-time) today. To check out the latest O’Malley Tae Kwon Do Center activities including instructional videos, photos and events, follow them on Facebook. I hope you find opportunities to meet and learn from Mr. O’Malley. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/feisworld/support
