Warrior Taekwon-Do News: 30 March

Dear Members,

It was awesome to see so many family and friends come to support the mini kids on Thursday at their first grading for the year! Congratulations to all the grading applicants on your promotions! You can view some photos from the day here. 

Today the TKD Kubz kids get their chance to grade during class at 3.30pm - if your child is a TKD Kubz kid but is not grading they should still come along as class is still on for them as usual.

We also had our Movie Night on Friday night which was well supported and a lot of fun. 

Class Timetable
Don't forget our regular timetable is on as usual this week - make sure you to come to class for some fun sessions in this last week of term, including learning and trying out some tournament skills as we head closer to our club tournament in two weeks' time. 

Next week our reduced holiday timetable starts, so make sure you've got your class time diaried if there is a change for you - view the timetable here. There won't be any classes over Easter Weekend too.

Answering Your Questions
The top question we've had about our upcoming club tournament is how long it will be and whether it will be all day. We can't tell exactly when it will finished (as it will depend on numbers and how quickly we get through each event) but we expect it to be finished by around midday/1pm.

The other popular questions have been around whether you can enter if you've only just started training this year, and whether you have to enter all of the events. You can definitely enter if you're new to Taekwon-Do, and no, you don't have to enter all of the events if you don't want to. 

Two Weeks To Go! 
Warrior Taekwon-Do Tournament Fun Day 
Sunday April 12, 8.30am registration, 9am start
Warrior Training Zone, 198 Marua Rd, Ellerslie
 
Our entries are climbing with entrants from Ellerslie, Three Kings and Diocesan branches, so make sure you get yours in to! We'll be getting you ready for the event in class.

There will be events for every age division across all four competition events: patterns, sparring, power and specialty. This day is being arranged especially for YOU so that you can apply your Taekwon-Do skills in a different context and gain some experience and confidence with tournaments in a safe and supportive environment.

We would like to see everybody entering from all of our branches unless they have a very good reason not to, so go ahead and enter now if you haven't already!

Detailed information and registration online here, or register at the table in the foyer

Have a great training week!


Best wishes,
