Kalajärvi taekwondo course students' belt tests

The belt exams for Kalajärvi's taekwondo courses were held yesterday, April 25, 2013, and a total of 16 eager test takers achieved the new belt value in the exam. Six trainees achieved the yellow belt, i.e. 8th kup belt rank, and the remaining ten trainees were graduated to the 7th kup belt rank, i.e. the first green natsa. Teemu Heino 4th dan and Juho Ranta 2nd dan received the belt test. In the opinion of both teachers, the belt exam went exemplary for the group as a whole and there was no need to doubt anyone getting a new belt rank. Teemu and Juho congratulate everyone who got a new belt rank!!!

The next belt exams in Kalajärvi will be held at the end of the autumn courses, near the end of the year, when those who have been practicing for the longest time will have the opportunity to pass the belt exam with a 7th+ kup belt value, i.e. get another green natsa on their belt. Participating in this belt test, however, also requires going to training at Konala's gym during the summer or fall. This is due to the fact that as the belt value increases, the amount of practice required before participating in the test also increases, and the practices are only held once a week in Kalajärvi. There is so much to learn before the next belt test that practicing once a week is not enough.

Next week in Kalajärvi, the last exercises of the spring season courses will be held before the summer break, so come and train everyone!
