Taekwondo athletes end-of-autumn bulletin
Autumn has already come a long way, and even the last summer vacationers have returned to the gym. The groups have been packed night after night. In the case of junior enthusiasts, we switched to group division according to belt values in the early fall. If someone is still wondering which group they should train in, here's a guide: Everyone who started the sport in the summer or fall trains in the Beginners group. The advanced group is intended for all yellow-belts, and the advanced group is for green belts and up. 3-6 year olds still train on Mondays and Wednesdays in two groups. Group sharing can be flexible due to overlapping expenses or to facilitate shared rides.
The autumn competition calendar looks pretty full, both in terms of indoor competitions and national competitions. Indoor competitions are a great way to try competing in a familiar environment at the Konala gym. Taekwondo athletes recommend everyone to buy their own protection from the club's equipment sales point and to try it out without prejudice, also for national competitions.

26 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.
