Hi guys as you all know we just had the competition last Saturday, and without a doubt it was a explosive day. For competitors and spectators i can safely say it was a fun day had by all. Competition season hasn't left just yet as there are more opportunities to compete coming very soon. So lets share what we say on Saturday, what was good what was bad and help each other improve. Please share your thoughts about the day.

Hey guys, as we are bang smack in the middle of preparing for our exams. I thought it would be a great to share some tips on how best to prepare. What has worked for you in the past? How often do you practise? What would you recommend to someone who’s sitting their first exam?

Hey guys just came across a 3 part video about the History of Taekwondo. I thought it was a interesting watch and it gave me a better insight into the techniques we use and the physics behind them. Some good insight into Korean History and traditions as well as where paticular techniques derived from. Plus its nice to see how many people all over the world practice Taekwondo, how its benefited them and what lengths instructors have taken to spread the art  to the point where its reogonised internationally as a Sport and Martial art.
