April/May Newsletter - 12th May 2008 at 6:47pm
Hi everyone, a quick note on the latest news for our Taekwondo club. This month we had a superb Seminar with Master Donnelly, along with the grading before it. 14 out of 21 people who graded received A passes- not bad when all of them except for one person had only had 8 weeks since their last grading! Well done to you all, we won’t be grading again until late summer -keep logging on for exact dates! I hope you gained from the experience of Master Donnelly instruction, I always do!!
Upcoming we will be turning our attention to Sparring and Championships! 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!!
The Midlands Championships are up coming and we would like a lot of our members to use this Championships as an opportunity to compete, without the pressure of the English/British Championships.
Talking of the British Championships, this year is the 25th anniversary of the TAGB - the Silver Jubilee, and to mark this special super seminar are to be held ( see events) PLUS a Black Belt team area Championships. In order to be picked for this team or even to get extra sparring practice you must go to the training days at Willenhall WV13 2NS a 10.00 am start. Each session will cost £5.00, this is open to Black belts, red Belts and maybe Blue Belts.!!!
Junior Black belts need to think about the September/October pre grading to take their first Star gradings-Danny,Alex and Becky.
Please continue with your training and above all enjoy it. Use it or lose it!!
Regards,
Simon.
