April/May 2012 Newsletter

Hi everyone, a quick note on the latest news for our Taekwondo club.

This  year we are looking to enter into an interclub tournament with Mr Pat Carter at his Warwick club. Detail and venue have yet to be confirmed-watch this space!

After our highly succesful Black belt gradings-well done guys!!!     We will look to encourage lots of new members, so if you know someone who may be intersted bring them along.

Hopefully, another seminar will be set up soon, I will let you know shortly. Blackbelts need to keep training, a first ( or indeed 2nd) Dan, is NOT a master!

In June we are hoping to attend the Midlands Championships at Kettering, make sure you attend at least two Championships a year, you can’t improve unless you put yourself out there!

Get into sparring mode by coming down on Saturday sessions, we will be practicing sparring routines, controlled contact, kicking speed, hands, padwork and of cource points!!

We now need to enrol some  more new students at our club, so if you know anyone who is interested bring them along, first lessons free!!!!

We will be having a leaflet drop day- delivering leaflets to businesses and houses in the areas. If  you can help please see me, thanks

 

In the mean time get practising;   remember    FAILING TO PREPARE IS PREPARING TO FAIL!

 

 

Please continue with your training and above all enjoy it. Use it or lose it!!

Regards,

Simon Loveland

5th Dan Instructor    Atherstone Taekwondo
