Hungary Summer Camp |
|
2008
was the second year that students from LLTKD travelled to Hungary
for the week long training camp organised by Universum Taekwondo.
This
year 13 students from all clubs were represented. Like last year,
it was a great and challenging experience for everyone with a 6:30am
morning session, 2 hour lunchtime training and another 2+ hour evening
session in some very hot and sticky conditions.
It
is not often that non-professionals have the opportunity to train
three times a day and it certainly gave a taste of what the full
time athletes experience!
Special
thanks go to Andrew Dorrian for making the trip
so enjoyable, and to Master Támas for making the camp possible.

Kingston
Tigers Win Cambridge Open!
The Kingston University Taekwondo Tigers came back from the 2007
Cambridge Open having won a tremendous 11 medals from 12 fighters.
Congratulations
go to all the contestants for having put in so much effort in a
relatively short space of time (some have only been training since
October).
The Team with the Winner's Shield
Taekwondo
beginner Hesham Dar said: "As a beginner to Taekwondo,
this competition was a little nerving on the days leading up to
it. However once we arrived at the venue and familiarised ourselves
with the event, the focus was on competing with the skills we had
practiced in the few short months.
The fights were exciting to watch as well as participate in, and
everyone showed their support to their team. This first competition
was a lot of fun and a whole new experience to many of us, and for
me, one that I’d like to compete in again".

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 both the martial art, whilst practicing the sport.
Master
Lawrence has clubs running from Sunday to Thursday; turn to the LLTKD
