Business series enthusiasts:
The amateur series players were on fire in their first races. Gold for Essi from the yellow ones and bronze for Anna. The pair Essi and Anna took gold. Great bets from Adna and Afnaan in pairs and individuals, but this time they were left out of the medal places.
Juuli Mankonen (F -49kg) and Bardia Mirzaei (M -80kg) represent Finland and we follow Talli in the Open G1 tournament. Bardia starts the match with 110 and Juuli with 510. Both have a medal available with one win. Good luck for the matches!

Sequences of movements (poomsae) are a central part of taekwondo training. They are competed all the way up to the World Championship level and are an essential part of technique training and development in belt ranks. Practicing sets of movements is one of the best ways to develop versatile in the sport.
Taekwondo athletes put a lot of effort into practicing movement sequences, and our athletes have excelled in both domestic and international competitions. In the 2023-24 season, the activities will be further developed and there will be exercises suitable for all skill levels. We also strongly encourage enthusiasts with lower belt grades to try competing and goal-oriented training. You can participate in competitions with a low threshold - amateur series are available for all belt levels.

Race group
The competition group is intended for athletes who compete or are about to compete in ranking series. In the fall season, part of the competition group will represent Finland in the EC competitions, so the exercises are planned to support their preparation. You need an athlete contract for the competition group.
The competition team always has technique training on Mondays, which is also suitable for arrogant enthusiasts who want to develop their technical skills. Ask the coaches for more information if the exercise interests you.
Laura Kinnunen, Ville Lehtinen, Marita Jaakkola and Pauli Raivio are the coaches of the competition group
Children's competition group
The children's competition group is intended for all enthusiasts aged 8-15 who are interested in competing in business series competitions. At the beginning, you participate in amateur series according to your own belt rank, and the goal is to gradually move towards ranking series. We also learn about freestyle movement sequences and acrobatics training.
The group has one own exercise per week, but the group members also participate in the children's hobby group and, according to the coach's instructions, also in other movement series exercises. In addition, additional training sessions are organized for the group before the competitions.
You need an athlete's contract for the children's competition group, but you can freely try a few times to see if the exercise suits you. Ask the coach for more information about contracts.
Pauli Raivio is the coach of the children's racing team
Hobby shop series (children and adults)
Amateur movement series are intended for enthusiasts with at least a yellow belt who want to develop in movement series and perhaps also compete in them. The group is also suitable for excellent technique practice and as part of preparation for the following belt exams. All 8-12-year-old enthusiasts participate in the children's hobby group, as well as the children's racing group under 13 years of age. Enthusiasts over the age of 13 participate in the adult group and 13-15 year olds in the children's racing group.
Aino Kortelainen is the coach of the children's amateur sports series and Alex Jürgens of the adults.
Poomsaeklinikka and free exercise
The poomsaeklinikka is intended for all enthusiasts who want to improve their movement sequences or learn new movement sequences. The exercise is also suitable for competitive athletes. The clinic is a free-form exercise where everyone progresses according to their own goals, practicing independently. However, there will be a coach and experienced athletes who will guide you in techniques and practicing new sets.
Poomsaeklinika's coach is Pauli Raivio.
Free practice on Fridays is intended for athletes in competition groups. The hall is then reserved for self-initiated training and development.

We are already looking forward to the start of the season - see you at Sal!
We will move to the autumn training schedules on August 15, 2021. Changes to schedules are possible.
There are some changes in practice schedules and groups. The children's groups are now divided by age as follows:
3-4 year olds
5-6 year olds
7-8 year olds
9-10 year olds
11-12 year olds
13-15 year olds
All basic groups have 2 trainings of their own and in addition to these, with the exception of 3-6 year olds, one joint training session. Those training in advanced groups and advanced groups can choose either a body control, match or movement series exercise (from the exercises of hobbyist groups) instead of or in addition to joint training.
For adults, there are two amateur match practice sessions, one of which is directed by Juho Kostiainen. All adults with a yellow belt are welcome to these exercises. However, in Juho's training, the emphasis is on advanced match technique.
The number of physical exercises has been slightly reduced, but we remind you of Punttisali.com's amateur offer:
