Sophia Vassilaki took gold, Teemu Heino and Tanja Lovikka silver and Aleksi Väyrynen Bronze.

Internationally, the hardest match was the meeting between Teemu and Zakharias Asidah, where Teemu Taipui lost 6-4. Even though this time there was a loss, Teemu stayed on the ride of the WC medalist, who is in great shape.

In addition to our own medalists, Pauli Raivio, who instructs and trains at our gym, took home the gold medal in his series.

At the taekwondo athletes match camp, approx. 40 trainers

TaekwondoKim Sinisalo and the instructors of TU11 got the enthusiasts going

The first workout was directed by Sampo Pajulampi and focused on movement and combining different techniques with it. In addition, hand-to-hand saves played a big role. Both kids and adults got themselves moving briskly in their own sessions.

In the second part, Kim Sinisalo directed a practice focused more on match situations. The new innovative exercises provoked thoughts and gave everyone a challenge.

The longest trip to the camp was made this time by Paimio's group of 5, led by their coach Mikko Yrjövuori. In addition, coaches from our own club were seen from Malmi, Riihimäki, Kerava, Vantaa, Espoo and Helsinki.
