| Do
something different - try Taekwondo!
Before
we know it, it'll be summer time...
Taekwondo is a great way to stay in shape as well as have fun. Summer
is approaching, why not kick start that old new year's resolution
and get fit for summer?
Once
you start training you may have a few aches and remember muscles
that you haven't used in ages, but once you get into it you'll feel
great. Training isn't expensive when you compare it to gym membership
and you have a class around you so it's much more fun. You don't
have to sign a contract, you can try a class to see if you like
it. Don't be shy - give it a try!

did unexpectedly and exceptionally well at the 2009 Colours Awards
Dinner held at Twickenham rugby club on 27th March. All 20+ club
members who were at the ball were delighted to see the club receive

put in. Let's see if we can repeat the success next year.

Taekwondo
is a Korean martial art with history extending over two thousand years.
Taekwondo first and foremost is a martial art with practical and useful
methods of self-defence.
In
1988 Seoul Olympics, Taekwondo was introduced as a demonstration sport.
Since then, the competition/sport side of the martial art has become increasingly
popular. In Master Lawrence’s Taekwondo clubs, you have the opportunity
to learn the martial art, whilst practicing the sport, having fun and
making some great friends.
Master
Lawrence has clubs running from Sunday to Thursday; turn to the LLTKD
Clubs page for your nearest venue. Meet the great team of instructors
and if you have any queries, please click here.
