Taekwondo athletes at the Madrid camp
Taekwondo athletes in top training in Madrid
Taekwondo athletes' representatives Tanja Lovikka, Kasper Wargelin, Eddie Quinones and Sara Quinones have spent the Christmas break training taekwondo at the international camp of Finland's Olympic coach Jesus Ramal in Madrid.
During the week, the TU11 team has received top-level instruction and plenty of match experience against international opponents. The camp has teams, e.g. From Spain, Italy and Mexico.
On Sunday, the camp culminated in a huge indoor competition, where the competitors gained competition experience against their own competitors. This is a good starting point for 2014, for which every camper in Madrid has already set both domestic and international goals.
Below are Sara and Eddie's poom skills and pictures from the camp:
The training camp for taekwondo athletes gathered people
The training camp organized on Saturday 28.12 gathered a lot of participation from all age groups despite the Christmas break. In the first training, various acrobatics and body control movements were practiced. In the second exercise, the main theme was jumping kick starts and various jumping exercises. In the last training, the enthusiastic participants still got to split the air in the form of various jumping kicks.
The Christmas break continues until New Year's Day, but on Thursday 2.1, training will be held as usual.

Successful championships
The Sm-kisat and the Pori Cup were a success
Taekwondo athletes match by match
Milla Väyrynen, SM – Cadets -37 Kg
In the first match, Milla fought Lotta Parta, who won the series. Lotta led the match until the last seconds, when Milla tied the match. In Sudden Death, Lotta would miss the head, but the judges gave the points. In the final, Partanen won 12-0 before full time. Bronze for Milla.
Kasper Wargelin, SM – Cadets -37 Kg
Kasper faced Santeri Helte, who knew how to reset Kassu's match well. Kassu couldn't make use of his best qualities and thus the defeat was a fact. Bronze for Kassu
Aaha Moullaev, SM – Cadets -53 Kg
Aaha was overweight for his series, but he competed above the series. Niko Saarinen was clearly better 21-4. Aaha gets bronze in the first cadet match.
Aleksi Väyrynen, SM – Cadets -41 Kg and SM – Youth -45 Kg
Aleksi had the same opponent in both series, Naantali's internationally experienced Keijo Soinio. In the first match, a good rhythm was already found, but the initial hesitation brought defeat. In the second match, the rhythm disappeared again and both sets won bronze.
Voker Feka, SM – Youth -63 Kg
Still a cadet, Voker debuted in the juniors, where the experienced Pessi Närhi was better. However, silver for Voker.
Tanja Lovikka, SM – Adults -49 Kg
Tanja couldn't find an opponent, so she took home the gold at the weigh-in.
Pauli Raivio, SM – Adults -68 Kg
Pauli I pressed the longest day of the whole team, when the final was the third match of the day. Henri Jutila fell in the first and Aleksi Nurisalo in the second. The final was exciting in advance, when Loviisa's Sami lahtinen faced off. Sami is a familiar opponent and training partner. The game was again decided by a questionable header, but one of the only international-level finals of the day was still a brilliant performance.
Petteri Kauppinen and Juho Kostianen SM – Adults -80 Kg
Gold for Juho and silver for Petter. In the first match, Petteri made a show of Wahid Ahmad. The second match also seemed to go great and Petteri pushed Juho hard.
Teemu Heino, SM – Adults +87 Kg
Teemu is still the number one big man in Finland. The match was relaxed and several physical difficulties did not prevent the final to be an overwhelming points victory. Teemu's 15th championship and a great display of the liberated match brought by the routine.
Megii Moullaev, D1 juniors -40 Kg
Megii played well at her level. The result is silver, which will surely brighten up in the near future.
The guardians are Sampo Pajulampi, Juho Ranta, Teemu Heino, Petteri Kauppinen, Juho Kostiainen and Pauli Raivio.

Jesus Ramal and Suvi Mikkonen will organize an international camp in Madrid on December 26-30, 2013. At least 2 athletes from our club will go to the camp. You go too. More information from Sampo.
Here is Suvi's message to Finnish taekwondo players:
”Suomalaiset! 26-30 joulukuuta pidetää Madridissa 2 talvi leiri! Viime vuonna leiri oli aivan mahtava ja tänä vuonna on jo monta joukkuetta ilmottautunut esim: Mexico, Portugal, Skotlanti, Saksa… Ja monta muuta kiinnostuneita. On mahdollista saada koti majoitus jonkun perheen kanssa meidän seurasta mutta ei riitä kaikille eli jos olet kiinnostunut ottakaa yhteyttä ja varatkaa oma paikkanne!! Myös tietenki voi majoittua hotelliin. Leirin Hinnoista ei ole vielä tietoa mutta ei ole kallis. Viime vuonna oli 3 suomalaista mukana, toivon että tänä vuonna on enemmän! Treenejä on 2 kertaa päissä 2 ryhmässä: lapset ja kadetit on 1 ryhmä ja junior ja senior on toinen ryhmä. Ja kisa viimeisenä päivänä. Are you going to miss it?”
- Suvi Mikkonen
The taekwondo athletes opened the autumn season at Loviisa's Junior Challenge. There were medals and one trophy.
Joni Ståhl and Sara Quinones took gold, Luca Leskinen, Kasper Wargelin and Severi Sarala took silver and Eddie Quinones took bronze. In addition, Luca was awarded as the fighter of the children's series.
Erikoisin sijoitus on ehkä Eddielle, joka otteli Severin kanssa kolmen ottelijan poolissa. Voitot menivät ristiin ja loppusijoitukset eivät oikein kuvaa sarjan tapahtumia. Severin ja Eddien ”jäsentenväliset” oli todellinen taistelu.
Kasper, who was the only one competing in the cadets, played a decent match, although getting used to the new rhythm was difficult in the first set. The final climb was tough, but not enough to win.
