We sweated and had fun at Junnuje's summer camp

GuaranteeIMG_1145b26 eager children and young people were able to practice taekwondo under the guidance of Paul and Tanja at the wondour players' summer camp. There were training sessions twice a day, and in them we delved into changing themes ranging from acrobatics to matches and from movement sequences to self-defense. Some of the riders got a fast-paced first contact with the sport. Between workouts, we spent time outdoors and excited about Kung-fu Panda's adventures. A tasty lunch was eaten at the lunch table of the cafe Corelli, and additional energy was refueled in the afternoon with a snack. Taekwondo athletes thank all campers.

You can visit the club for more pictures from facebook pages.

In the middle of the year, Taekwondo athletes are clearly the biggest

Halfway through the year, Taekwondo athletes are by far the largest club in the Taekwondo League, measured by licenses. This is a nice transition to summer training and even small vacations in July.
