Tapiola's spring season

The spring season starts in Tapiola with the newest alleys. Most of the training will be conducted by Petteri Kauppinen (4th dan). Petteri is the Finnish champion of both the match and the movement series. In addition, he has practiced a lot in the mother country of the sport, Korea. Petteri brings especially technical precision to training and above all a good feeling.

Sampo will continue as the leader of Monday's training sessions, and Sunday's training sessions will have a changing leader and with changing training topics.

The training map changes a little, the advanced train more and more together and the training of the beginner group is also combined. The arrangement gives everyone enough opportunities to participate in exercises according to their own interests.
