Situation overview of taekwondo athletes 24.5.

Hey,

The exercises will continue next week and we will train all summer! Have you already checked your training times on the website? In the summer training, we take the necessary precautions into account and part of the training is done outside with each group. In June, the benefits that we offer for all contracts to those who paid their training fee during the corona period will also start.

This week's live workouts

You can find live lessons and links to participate:

https://tu11.fi/taekwondo/live/

If the page does not show the hours correctly, refresh it by pressing (f5) or from the menu of your device.

You don't need to register for live lessons in advance, it's enough to participate via the website. The link guides you to the implementation of the Zoom service, no matter what your device is. To participate, you need a smart device with a camera, such as a computer, mobile phone or tablet. You can also participate without your own video, but in that case the instructor will not be able to give you feedback.

It's worth clicking on the coach's video after the workout has started, so that it is permanently attached to your screen as an active, i.e. large, video (pin video). You should also turn the sound off (mute) in your own video, but remember to turn it back on if you want to talk to the coach.

Please remember that you can collect training notes for the belt tests from all the video workouts and live workouts you complete. Younger enthusiasts must get their parents' signature for the completed training. Return your training entries to the gym after opening.

The age divisions are indicative and you can participate in any exercise. For young children, adult exercises may seem difficult, but that does not prevent participation.

So you can join our website's Live! from the section

Wed 27.5. 20:00-21:00 – Mobility training and stretching (all enthusiasts)

Thu 28.5. 17:00-17:45 – Children (under 12)

Considerations and instructions for summer training:

• You must not come to the exercises if you have even minor symptoms. The coach has the right to remove from the hall all trainees who he interprets as sick.
• Parents or other chaperones are not allowed to come to the side of the gym to wait or watch training. The child is brought to the hall entrance and picked up from the same place after the lesson.
• You may arrive at the venue no earlier than 15 minutes before the start of the training and you must leave the premises immediately after the training is over.
• If possible, change into training clothes at home and avoid using the hall's changing rooms.
• Hands are washed carefully with soap before and after training.
• A safety distance of two meters is always kept from other enthusiasts when not doing pair exercises.
• The exercises are designed so that close contact is taken as little as possible. In pair training, the same pair is kept throughout the training and the equipment used in the training is also not rotated from one pair to another. At the end of the day, the equipment used is disinfected.
• Shouting (kihap) is avoided in training. 
• The cleaning of the hall will be increased and made more efficient.
• Hand sanitizer is available at the hall counter, but we recommend washing your hands with soap.

Implementation of outdoor exercises:

• The outdoor exercises of the children's elementary groups are organized near the hall. Meeting always in the hall's lower lobby. Weather-appropriate equipment included. In rainy weather, the practice will be held indoors at the coach's discretion.
• Hill training for adults and competition groups is organized in Malminkartano's teyttös. Gathering at the bottom of the stairs. Address Vuorenjuuri 40, 00410 Helsinki. Equipment suitable for running training included. The exercise is suitable for enthusiasts of all fitness levels.
• The outdoor training/character training of the competition teams is organized at the Myyrmäki sports field on Raappavuorentie. Comes with equipment suitable for outdoor training.

Summer benefits for those who participated in the corona period campaigns

In March and April, we organized a campaign in which we offered a free training month to everyone who paid for their next payment period, and two months if you paid for two training periods at once. We can only humbly thank you for the great support you have shown to the club in a challenging situation!

Free months are added to training contracts automatically, and the next invoice appears in the email as usual only when the entire paid period and the free month have passed. Some of the enthusiasts whose new payment started at the very end of April may have already received a new invoice, but the free training month will be automatically added to that payment period.

In addition to this, paid enthusiasts are offered or have been offered:

• Virtual workouts of the growing library
  • The production of the virtual classes was put on hold for a while after the live training started, but the library is still planned to be expanded and the already produced videos will remain in use by enthusiasts.
• Live training several times a week
  • Live training will be held until the end of May. At the beginning of the summer, we will ask the enthusiasts separately if they want to participate in the live training also after the gym opens as part of the training.
• Self-paced exercise program for home training
  • The training program can be found in the same place as the virtual classes and it is still a good tool for developing your own training
• Possibility to borrow the club's fire mats for your own home training
  • Borrowed fire mats must be returned by the beginning of June
• Free camps as soon as the hall is opened
  • We will inform you more about the camps soon
• No summer break this year, but the exercises will continue without a break throughout the summer, if the situation allows
• Update or additional services for all contract types:
  • Basic agreement for adults -> A month's training right for the weight room
    • Starts at the beginning of June. Access to the weight room for June is added to the access tags. Ask your coach for tips on punch training!
  • Basic contract for children -> One month training right for the children's competition team
    • All those who train with a children's basic contract are allowed to participate in the training of competition groups during June at no additional charge
  • Adult athlete contract -> One month's training right at the weight room. Private lesson for those who already have a contract for the gym.
    • Starts at the beginning of June. Access to the weight room for June is added to the access tags. Ask your coach for tips on punch training! If you already have the right to train or you are too young for strength training, book one Slack through!
