Get yourself going!

Whether you are a beginner or a specialist in kicking technique, by 7.1 at the latest. it's time to kick yourself into the taekwondo exercises. There are groups for enthusiasts of all ages and levels, and you can join at any time!

Spring practice times

There have been small changes to the practice times since autumn:

• 4-6 year olds practice on Mondays from 18:00 to 19:00 and on Saturdays from 11:00 to 12:00.
• 7-9 year olds practice on Mondays from 17:00 to 18:00, but for Wednesday and Friday the practices are an hour later at 18:00 to 19:00. The reason for the change is that there are still many more people in the age group who ride with their parents, and it can be difficult to get five to the exercises. Accordingly, 10-12- and 13-15-year-olds train earlier on Wednesday and Friday.
• There is one more movement series competition practice for Wednesday

Bella, Sofia and Vickan won gold in the group series, Aino bronze in the individual series

The competition careers of under-12-year-old business series competitors in the children's series could not end much sweeter when Bella, Vickan and Sofia went to grab gold in the children's EC competitions. The day was crowned by Aino's bronze from the more than 30-person girls' singles series. Bella and Sofia also worked their way to the finals in that series. Hardly anyone has missed the hard and determined work of the girls in the gym, and this is how the results of that work are reaped.

Absolutely amazing performance from the whole team! The biggest congratulations to the girls and a big bow to the coaches for the great work with the athletes. From here it is easy to continue to the cadet series.

Five series wins from the final race of the season

The 2018 competition season got its worthy decision in Eura, when the league finals of the match sealed the league championships and in the Eura Cup, enthusiasts and business series competitors measured each other. The taekwondo athletes were in traffic with a small, but even more energetic team.

One of the biggest bright spots of the day was Lauri, who once again met in the opening Plum's. This time the steady twist turned in Lauri's favor and the pace seemed to pick up as we went to the final. The match was perfect because of Lauri's performance, as the points clicked one after the other to Lauri's account. Now the self-confidence was right! In cadet boys, Plum also won silver and bronze in pairs with EHT's Mia Knutsson.

Also To Chaimaan the legs were in good shape and the tactics worked in both matches, even though the opponents were one age group higher. It bodes well for the cadet EC competitions to be held in a week. Chahrazed stylized in his own series for a clear victory with a striking match style, which was not lacking in back spins and strong kick combinations.

The series of small CDs were Jenny's and Iine's from the screen. Jenny worked hard again in two series and achieved a great victory in the cadets -33kg series. In an even higher series, Jenny cleared her way to the final, where Iines was waiting for her. The fight was, as usual, even, but Iines pulled out a longer shot in the end.

With Emmi there was a nice flow in the legs in the first match and when the places were found, the points clicked home with an excellent percentage. There wasn't quite as much momentum in the final, even though the crunch at the end was a great demonstration of how to dig for points even with slightly tired legs. However, I was satisfied with silver. Respectively Janika showed strong performances in his first match, but had to leave the next due to an eye injury. Also Bard had to stop his match due to an injury, but in Bardia's typical ferocious cheering attitude and hunger for training, he was visible again as soon as he returned from the trip to the emergency room.

Congratulations to the medalists of the day!
