Unfortunately, due to the low number of registrations, we have to cancel the weekend business series competition. A new company at the beginning of autumn with a new gym!

Welcome to the first Helsinki Poomsae Challenge event 7.5.2022!

Taekwondo athletes 2011 and Kampsport Fighters jointly organize a low-threshold movement series competition. The indoor competition-style event is suitable for beginners as well as veterans and serves as an excellent addition to the domestic spring competition season or, for example, as a preparation competition for PM competitions.

The Poomsae Challenge is not a traditional gym competition, as the points are given with official scoring devices and we also try to get trained movement series judges to attend. In addition, the Taekwondo Association's business series committee piloted a new mentor system at the event. From experienced mentors, both competitors and business series coaches receive concise feedback on their performance.

We divide the competition series according to registrations. The series are divided according to age and skill level, and you can also compete in groups, doubles and freestyle.

The winners of the series will be awarded and all participants will be awarded a diploma!

Due to the prevailing corona situation, we consider it best to cancel the gym competition event planned for Saturday. The time right before Christmas is challenging anyway, because possible chains of exposure and quarantines would not only be more challenging to figure out, but would also ruin many people's holiday plans. In addition, relatively few participants have signed up for the indoor competition so far. 

The aim is to hold the event at the beginning of the year if the corona situation allows. 

Taekwondo athletes' regular scheduled exercises are on break in the middle two weeks of July 12.-25.7.  

During the break We encourage all enthusiasts to do virtual workouts >>

Those training in competition groups and adult groups can use the hall for independent training. If you are interested in using the hall, send a message to info@tu11.fi.main.hoste.fi before the break starts.

During the summer break, we do not respond to emails regularly. For urgent matters, send a Whatsapp message to the club's number 0451827290. 

We organize a separate season opening camp in August, which is free of charge for all enthusiasts who have a continuous contract valid during the summer. 

Practices according to the summer schedule continue 26.7. and we move to the autumn training calendar 16.8. 

Happy summer for everyone!

At the belt exams in May, a large number of enthusiasts earned their new belt rank. Pat on the back! Hard training was reflected in great performances in the exams themselves, and the bar didn't budge for anyone. 

Thanks also to Mati, Marita, Kirsimarja and Riku, who supervised the exam under the watchful eye of Paul as part of their own progress in the ranks of the black belt. Excellently planned and conducted tests by each. Of course, the same applies to Minna, who won the 3-6 year old exam with a strong routine. 

This is good to continue towards summer training! 

 

Coach training for taekwondo athletes was unfortunately interrupted at the end of autumn 2020 due to the corona situation. It has not been possible to continue the trainings in the spring either.

In June 2021, we will organize a level 1 training as an intensive course. The course applies to everyone whose Level 1 education was interrupted in the fall, as well as others interested in the subject. We encourage all enthusiasts over 16 years old with at least a red belt to participate. You can attend the training even if you have already completed a similar training, because the subject areas have changed.

Note! Training is mandatory for those participating in the DAN exam in June, if a similar performance has not been done before. 

Objectives and subject areas

• Learning the ways and practices of the society
• Identify ways to create a safe and stimulating training atmosphere
• Identify ways to intervene in problem situations and dangerous situations (e.g. injuries)
• Illustrates ways of practicing taekwondo skills through progressions and differentiated exercises
• Learn the basic model for planning a single exercise
• Learn the basics of different teaching styles and exercise implementation methods

Schedule

Thu 3.6. – 17:00-20:00
Thu 10.6. – 17:00-20:00
