(Miree)Hi Scott,Glad your Indonesian school work out well!

Here are some listing of martial arts schools;

Matra Taekwondo School
For people new to the martial arts, the benefits of martial arts training might not be obvious. Some will think, sure, it's a great workout--just look at that "Ty Bo" guy. And of course it's good for self-defense, with all that punching and Kicking. But the benefits of martial arts training, especially for children and teenagers, are much more than simple physical improvements. Martial arts benefits span a spectrum of physical, mental, and social attributes, all of which are learned and improved through martial arts training.Website: matra88.homestead.com/taekwondo.html

She is expat, recently arrived back in Jakarta, also does cosmetic tattoo. Good quality, so not a 'bargain' about 300 thou for a facial.
