Summer Beach Training

17/7/2018

PictureMr and Mrs Swain, with their students, and instructor Mr Lammin
Every year Mr Lammin hosts a number of beach training sessions on the lovely Bournemouth beach.  These sessions are a great chance for our students to train with others from locals classes, as well as having some fun on the sand and in the sea!

This time round, with Mr Swain still recovering from injury he was asked to help run the session, which he really enjoyed.  It was great to see a good turn out from Swain Taekwon-Do Students - who all thoroughly enjoyed it. Fingers crossed we can have even more next time!

The session this time covered a bit of fitness, patterns (testing the memory and balance) as well as some kicking and sparring in the sea!

On Tuesday 19th June our Little PUMAs had the opportunity to show of their skills in front of Mr Swain while grading for their new belts.  The Little PUMAs were asked to display their developing Taekwon-Do and Coordination knowledge they have been working on over the past three months.

Mrs Swain and Mrs Hallett (our Little PUMA instructors) have done brilliantly preparing them for the grading; with all 7 passing!  All Little PUMAs were presented with their new belts, certificate and Coordination badges.

We also had the pleasure of awarding one student their Little PUMA Black Belt; the results of 2 years of hard work.  That's a very long time for someone under 7 years old!

Grading Results:
Leo McCabe - Orange Belt
Rhys Holloway - Orange Belt
James Dempsey - Green Belt
Lyla Mumford - Blue Belt
William Lambelle - Red Belt
Alex Harris - Brown Belt
Tyler McGhie - Black Belt!

The next three months sees our Little PUMAs working on Focus and Concentration alongside their Taekwon-Do Skills!

P.U.M.A. English Championships

We had our largest group of students yet enter the P.U.M.A. English Championships on 1st July in Swindon - but there is still room for more. All but one of them were competing in their first ever competition which takes a lot of courage and deserves respect in itself.

It was a very hot day but all our students kept their cool and performed well. Other instructors even commented how well some of you did, which shows how hard you all are working. I am sure they all took away some valuable experience which will help them in their next competition.

Who did what?
Anissa Se-Upara - High Kick and Patterns
Sutti Se-Upara - Patterns
Erin Couper - High Kick, and a Bronze in Patterns
Pippa Read - High Kick, a Bronze in Patterns, and a Bronze in Sparring
Aimee Mansel - Bronze in Musical Patterns, Bronze in Sparring, and a Silver in Patterns!

These results put us in joint 17th (out of 33 schools) in P.U.M.A.s new competition league table, after the first competition. I'm sure we can climb that throughout the year.

Alongside our students, Mr Swain spent the day refereeing at the competition, while Mrs Swain spent time as a referee as well as competing - taking Gold in both Patterns and Sparring!
