Celebration – 29/11/2014 at the Leicester Taekwon-Do Academy
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.

January monthly Kup grading at the Leicester Taekwon-Do Academy
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.
Promoted
- Adil Butt 10th Kup to 9th Kup
- Aman Panacer 8th Kup to 7th Kup
