The training times of the summer season start on June 7.

The summer practice times are published on the practice times page>>

We practice throughout the summer, except for the two middle weeks of July, July 12-25, when we take a summer break.

In the summer, there are plenty of training opportunities for all age groups, no matter what your goals are in terms of development. Summer is e.g. what a great time to practice your skills or try out what competitive training in racing teams feels like.

Points to note about summer training:

  • Age and level groups have been combined a bit, because in the summer group sizes have traditionally been a little smaller. In addition, the training topics are designed so that there are challenges of a suitable level for all belt values.
  • There are two feature exercises for the competition teams during the day when schools are on vacation. We provide more detailed instructions for athletes. In addition, Fridays are reserved for competition teams' independent training and extra training.
  • Fitness circuit, core, stretching and hill training make the long-awaited return to the training offer
  • For those over 13 years of age, there is also an amateur match and an amateur movement series workout. The popular kick workout can also be found again on Sunday.
  • For children's groups, there are outdoor workouts on Thursdays in addition to the basic workouts. If you still want to increase the amount of training, you should ask about the possibilities of participating in the training of the racing group.
  • The advanced 10-15 pass over the summer to train in the 10-12 and 13-15 age groups.
  • In the summer, there is plenty of room in the calendar for private lessons or small group lessons. Book yours right away!

    How do you get to the belt exams?

    You can get to the belt exams by collecting enough practice marks from the previous belt exam. We calculate training visits based on recorded workouts, so remember to log your exercise every time you go to the gym. Participation in video training sessions must be reported separately as a compiled list to the address before the exams info@tu11.fi.main.hoste.fi.

    The prerequisite for entering the exam is also that you know the things required in the exam at a sufficient level and follow the rules of conduct in the gym during the exercises.

    You do not need to register for the exam in advance. However, please let us know if you are not going to participate in the exam after receiving the invitation.

    What is required in the belt test

    In the belt exam, you need to know the technical requirements of the exam and the sets of movements. The requirements of the previous exams also still have to be mastered. You can find the technical requirements in the training instructions on the hall wall.

    We are currently updating the belt test requirements. After the update work, they will also be available in electronic form.

    How should you prepare for the exams?

    The best preparation for the exam is to attend training actively and versatile. For example, enthusiasts who emphasize match training should also attend basic training from time to time, and correspondingly, those training in basic hobby groups should deepen their skills in the form of match training and movement sets.

    Movement sets should be practiced especially well, because they gather almost all the techniques required in the exam and embody the ability of the enthusiast to rhythm the techniques and generate strength in them. After learning a new movement sequence, repeat it as much as possible.

    In the weeks before the exam, movement sets are also repeated more than usual in training. 

    What does the exam cost and how is it billed

    You can find our belt test price list:

    https://tu11.fi/taekwondo/hinnasto/vyokoehinnasto/

    We will invoice you for the exam by email after the exam.

    VIRTUAL LESSONS

    Book a private lesson or a hall for your own use

    In accordance with AVI's decision, the hall is closed. However, the ban does not apply to family events. You can reserve area 1 for the use of your family living in the same household, if your family has a valid internship contract for a person born in 2007 or earlier. You can book two hours in a row, but only once a week. Bookable hours are checked in the system. Area 1 is accessed through the HAC corridor door.

    It is also possible to organize private lessons. Book private lessons by arranging an hour with the coach, and then reserve the gym for your use.

    During private reservations, the use of equipment is allowed, but please remember to disinfect them at the end of the training.

    Note! anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a responsible guardian.

    FOR RESERVATIONS

    AVI's instruction

    ”The space may be rented for private and family use. Such use includes, for example, the use of the premises for birthday parties or weddings. Private and family life does not include, for example, the practice of a sports team or the use of a gym with people who are strangers to each other, even if the space has been rented by a private person.

    The regional administrative agency cannot precisely define the maximum allowed number of employees. The private person who rented the space can bring a personal trainer or other private teacher with them to the space if they so wish. However, this type of activity cannot be recommended, as avoiding unnecessary close contact is important to reduce the risk of infection."

    We organize outdoor training opportunities for competition groups, as well as independent training separately from our instructions.
