📝Learning from the best ✨

Fresh off from bagging another European Gold, we have had the privilege to attend a world class seminar by none other than Eva Sandersen. After experiencing the training a Poomsae Champion goes through, the young participants came out re-energised and inspired. This seminar has come at a great time where the new recruits are preparing for their first Poomsae competition and the returners are building their confidence in their performance for the same competition. A few of the older members are preparing for the upcoming London Open.

Narae Cubs is a youth engagement project funded by the King’s College London’s Volunteer Project Fund.

The year started strong as young athletes in the Narae Cubs project finally received their well-earned medals! After three months of training, they signed up for Ali’s Dojang Championships, marking a key milestone in their journey. This month also saw six new participants join the programme and a boost in volunteer engagement, growing from two to six members from KCL TKD. Excited for what’s ahead this term!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A special congratulations to Master Stephen, who received the Leader Award from the Jack Petchey Foundation in recognition of his eight years of teaching and supporting children and young people in their Taekwondo journeys. A well-deserved achievement!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
🥋 Upcoming Training & Events:
• Master Jeong continues running intensive competitive poomsae sessions until April.
• Master Suj led a one-day kicking workshop with Overgravity at their new venue, receiving great feedback—thank you to all participants for your dedication!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This month also welcomed new and returning members through youth projects with @society.links and @oceanyouthconnexions.
