The indoor competitions in May did not gather as many enthusiasts as those of the last months. However, the level of the matches was high, and in general, the development curve is clearly rising. The monthly gym competitions will continue again in the fall, but you can also spar during the summer.

Junnu's summer camp is full
The summer camp aroused enthusiasm
The junnu summer camp organized in the first week of June has gathered registrations beyond expectations. There are already more than 20 names on the list, so additional registrations can no longer be accepted. However, if you have already managed to plan that week's expenses based on the summer camp, but have not yet registered, please contact the club's instructors either by email (info@taekwondourheilijat.fi) or on site at the gym.
Those who registered will receive more detailed information about the camp via email at the end of this week.
Kalajärvi's hard-working taekwondo enthusiasts got to show their skills at the belt test held yesterday, Thursday, May 8, 2014. Those who started the first courses in Kalajärvi were able to take the green belt exam, and those who started this course had the yellow belt exams. A total of 9 enthusiastic testers took part in the belt tests and each of them performed the test very well! A few homeworks were given to some to practice before the final acceptance of the exam, but overall the exam was a good performance. The exam was taken by Juho Ranta, 2nd dan.
The people of Kalajärvi still have taekwondo training next week in Konala, when Kalajärvi school is closed. Exercises for both age groups at 17-18!
Congratulations again to all the belters!

Ski holiday camp:
Taekwondo athletes practiced diligently twice a day at the ski vacation camp during the entire ski vacation week. The most diligent campers stayed kicking even during the evening exercises. Between workouts, we went for a treat at the lunch table of the cafe Corelli downstairs. There was still enough snow to get down to Kannelmäki. In addition, on Thursday we went to Kanneltalo to watch a movie.
Taekwondo athletes would like to thank all campers for a great week!

Taekwondo athletes at the Madrid camp
Taekwondo athletes in top training in Madrid
Taekwondo athletes' representatives Tanja Lovikka, Kasper Wargelin, Eddie Quinones and Sara Quinones have spent the Christmas break training taekwondo at the international camp of Finland's Olympic coach Jesus Ramal in Madrid.
During the week, the TU11 team has received top-level instruction and plenty of match experience against international opponents. The camp has teams, e.g. From Spain, Italy and Mexico.
On Sunday, the camp culminated in a huge indoor competition, where the competitors gained competition experience against their own competitors. This is a good starting point for 2014, for which every camper in Madrid has already set both domestic and international goals.
Below are Sara and Eddie's poom skills and pictures from the camp:
