SM-kisat 2025 käytiin kaksijakoisissa tunnelmissa. Liikesarjoissa menestys oli jopa odotettua parempaa kun taas ottelussa flunssa otti niskalenkin joukkueesta ja tulos oli heikoin ikinä SM-kilpailuissa. Osa joukkueesta jäi sängyn pohjalle ja esimerkiksi Peetu joutui jättämään kisan kesken jääden hopealle molemmissa sarjoissaan. Tuplamestaruuden otti Marita Jaakkola joka yksilösarjassa otti myös kaksoisvoiton yhdessä Kirsimarja Raitasalon kanssa.

Match

Team Manager Pauli Raivio's report

The spring competition season kicked off with the traditional Loviisa Open, where 127 athletes won medals. TU had no less than 15 athletes in this group, and this team was not spared a rain of medals!In the amateur series of the morning, both the rankings and the attitude were spot on. First timers Liisi and Jaana went into the challenge with an open mind and we can expect a lot from them in the coming competitions, even if they still lost today. Max returned to racing after a short break, but again showed that he was right at home and took gold in show style. Narvin fought a very even match, but this time they had to settle for bronze with a small difference. Isabella and Rana staged a stunning final between the two sides after beating both of their opening opponents. There was no shortage of situations and drama in the final and the girls were both deservedly awarded with a well-deserved cheerleading award at the end of the day!

Afternoon Chahra and Bard took gold in their own series by clear margins, and in spectacular style. And so did Sena, who showed what great courage and guts at their best can achieve. A tremendous victory in battle. From the same series, the double winner Isabella took bronze. Milay advanced to the final in their own category with a good win, but this time they had to settle for silver despite a strong performance. Elias, Venla, Vivian and Aleksandra gave way in their opening matches, but the performances still promised a lot and everyone went all out to get points in even the most challenging matches.A big thank you to all the athletes, coaches and support staff! It's good to continue from here towards the World Championships.-Pauli Raivio, coach

Participants get I invite you to the exam by email.

You can also find the list  https://tu11.fi/taekwondo/vyokokeiden-osallistujat-ja-aikataulut/

How do you get to the belt exams?

You can get to the belt exams by collecting enough practice marks from the previous belt exam. We calculate training visits based on recorded workouts, so Please remember to record your exercise with a track tag every time you go to the gym. 

The prerequisite for entering the exam is also that you know the things required in the exam, the movement sequences, and follow the rules of behavior in the gym at a sufficient level.

You do not need to register for the exam in advance. However, please let us know if you are not going to participate in the exam after receiving the invitation by email. Also let us know if you didn't receive an invitation, but you think you should have a belt test. 

What is required in the belt test?

In the belt exam, you need to know the technical requirements of the exam and the sets of movements. The requirements of the previous exams also still have to be mastered.

Practice instructions for belt tests

How should you prepare for the exams?

The best preparation for the exam is to attend training actively and versatile. For example, enthusiasts who emphasize match training should also attend basic training from time to time, and correspondingly, those training in basic hobby groups should deepen their skills in the form of match training and movement sets.

Movement sets should be practiced especially well, because they gather almost all the techniques required in the exam and embody the ability of the enthusiast to rhythm the techniques and generate strength in them. After learning a new movement sequence, repeat it as much as possible.

In the weeks before the exam, movement sets are also repeated more than usual in training. 

What does the exam cost and how is it billed?
