Sophia's summer training in Greece

7448_10201130097281748_1975182339_nSophia Vassilaki is training in Greece in the summer. The first week passed Kiriakos Parasidis in the gym, under the guidance of assistant coach Haralambos Balaskas. The club's name is Peristeri and a large group of top Greek cadets and juniors train there, as the brightest star Stavroula Kontou, who took silver at last year's European Youth Championships in Zagreb.

"Really tough and skilled girls who train hard. There is no money for foreign competitions. In Bulgaria, they had won gold in at least two classes," says Laura Vassilaki, after watching the exercises for a week. Below are pictures of the exercises taken by Laura.

Next, Sophia will continue training on the island of Kos, where she started her training.

At the summer camp, we trained and enjoyed the sunny weather

taekwondo taekwondo taekwondoThere was enough buzz in Konala's gym and the surrounding area at the beginning of June, when TU11's first taekwondo day camp gathered 12 juniors to train, play and hang out together on June 3-7. A video was also shot at the camp, which will be shown when finished.
Each day's program included two guided taekwondo exercises, shared meals and outdoor activities. During the week, kicks, pooms, basic technique and acrobatics were practiced, and on Friday the camp culminated in mini-competitions, where they competed in pairs or groups in the skills part, pooms and matches. At the fastest, front kicks hit mits in 34 fifteen seconds, and even for a jump kick, the slap had to be held while sitting on the shoulders. In Pooms, we saw some great couples
individual performances and in the match the cheers were amazing and the distances were just right!

Next summer, kicking again and even better!
