January Taekwon-Do Grading – 28th Jan 2015

January 31, 2015January 31, 2015 Nick Overton

On January 28th Leicester Taekwon-Do had its first Kup grading of the year. 11 people took part in the examination and all performed well.

They were asked to perform the following as part of their grading:-

Patterns up to their grade
Set sparring – 1/2 and 3 step sparing routines.
Free sparring including 2 onto 1
Theory questions linked to their grade
Breaking or power tests against a bag

After the grading had finished the black belts were asked to sum up their thoughts and all agreed that all had performed well and I am pleased to announce the following promotions:-

Ethan Chan to 9th Kup
Iganas Bagdanavicius to 8th Kup
Sam Bradsworth to 7th Kup
Adil Butt to 6th Kup
Suzanne Ralphson to 5th Kup
Aman Pancer to 4th Kup
Liam Culpin to 4th Kup
Mark Button to 3rd Kup

As well as this, I would like to congrats the following people on undertaking their grading too. All 3 of these members have transferred from the TAGB recently and this grading was to confirm their status as 1st Kup

Izaak Jankowski – 1st Kup
Jakob Jankowski – 1st Kup
Janusz Jankowski – 1st Kup

Finally I would like to extend my thanks to the following black belts for support the grading and for helping me make the decisions:-

Mr David Martin II Dan
Mr Michael Martin I Dan
Mr Edan Tyson I Dan

Congratulations to all. I now know that all members of the club are training hard for their next grading!!

Again, well done all.

November 4, 2014February 18, 2015 Nick Overton

To celebrate the Leicester Taekwon-Do Academy first year as a club, we are organising a Christmas do joined with a celebration evening.

The idea is that members get to meet with family and friends in a less formal way and celebrate Taekwon-Do without their suits on. There will be light refreshments and a time for all to gather and talk to one another. There will be a short presentation from Mr Nick Overton to members of the club for their support and contribution to Taekwon-Do.

Hopefully everyone will be able to spare an hour that evening.

Venue: Southfield Drive Community centre

Time: 6pm – 7pm

January monthly Kup grading at the Leicester Taekwon-Do Academy

March 2, 2014February 18, 2015 Nick Overton

January monthly Kup grading

On Thursday 30th January Leicester Taekwon-Do Academy had their first Kup grading. The night started with a vigorous warm up. This was swiftly followed by some basic fundamental moments. The grading then start. First was the patterns. All members perform all their patterns up to their gradings well. Next came the kicking drill. Everyone who was grading was put through their paces and performed at a very high standard. During a standard water break each had a chance to share what they knew in terms of theory. Finally we finished with some sparring.

All tried very hard and should be very proud of themselves.
