First Tae Kwon Do Armadale WA

Wishing all our First Tae Kwon Do family a very Merry Christmas and a joyous, safe, and well-earned New Year 🎄🥋

Thank you to our dedicated instructors, committed students, and supportive families for your effort, discipline, and spirit throughout the year. May the holiday season bring rest, happiness, and time with loved ones, and may the New Year inspire renewed energy, new goals, and continued growth on and off the Dojang Floor.

We look forward to training, achieving, and celebrating together again in the year ahead.

🌟 Father’s Day 2025 🌟 At First TaeKwonDo WA, we proudly honour the many fathers who step onto the training floor alongside their children.
TaeKwonDo is more than a martial art — it is a lifelong journey of discipline, respect, and perseverance. When fathers and children train together, the benefits reach far beyond fitness and technique. Fathers lead by example, showing their children the value of commitment, resilience, and personal growth. In a world where many young people look to outside influences as role models, the presence of a father to look up to — right beside them on the Dojang floor — is truly invaluable. Acta Non Verba!

Training side by side, fathers and children share in both triumphs and challenges. They sweat together, overcome difficulties together, and learn that progress comes through patience, effort, grit, and determination. These lessons forge not only stronger martial artists, but also stronger individuals equipped with the mental fortitude to face life’s demands.

Beyond the kicks and patterns, these shared experiences strengthen family bonds, build confidence, and create memories that will be cherished for years to come.

This Father’s Day, we pay tribute to all the fathers who guide, encourage, and inspire — both inside and outside the dojang. Your example is a lasting gift, proving that the greatest lessons are not spoken, but lived.

From all of us at First TaeKwonDo WA, we wish you a very Happy Father’s Day.

💪 Building Strength with Bridges! 💪
At First Tae Kwon Do, we incorporate a variety of strength drills into our class warmups, rotating them regularly to keep training dynamic and effective. One essential drill we use is the bridge.

Bridges are fantastic for building core strength, stabilizing muscles, and enhancing flexibility. They engage the lower back, glutes, and hamstrings, helping our students develop a strong foundation crucial for balance and powerful movements. This drill also helps improve posture and body alignment, which are essential for executing TaeKwonDo techniques with precision and control.

Our goal at First TKD is to support each student’s physical development while preparing them to meet the demands of the martial art. Whether it’s kicking, sparring, or performing forms, every movement is strengthened by the work we put in during warmups!

First Tae Kwon Do Armadale wishes all the fathers a very Happy Father’s Day today.

This photo of Snr Ins Danny & Ins Trent that train together at our Armadale training centre.

We understand that being a father is a privilege and an honour, which brings an important responsibility in life. We understand the importance of spending quality time with our children and providing them with the essential skills they need to have a strong, positive and successful future in their lives. First Tae Kwon Do training provides a lot of those life skills.

We appreciate it is not always an easy job and there are constant challenges along the way. Although as a father, your words are important, leading by example is even more powerful. Your actions speak louder than words and set the foundation for the values and behaviors your child/ren will carry into adulthood. Keep up the great work, and remember that your dedication today shapes the leaders of tomorrow."

Within our school there are many fathers who train and/or teach in our classes. We also acknowledge the efforts of the fathers who manage to organise their children to arrive at our classes each week.

Have a great day!

Taekwondo's two-step sparring, or "Ibo Matsogi," is a structured form of partner practice designed to develop precision, timing, distance control, and defensive skills. It involves a pre-arranged sequence where one practitioner performs two consecutive attacks, and the other responds with two corresponding defensive techniques and a counterattack. Two-step sparring is an invaluable training method in Taekwondo, bridging the gap between basic techniques and free sparring, and laying a strong foundation for advanced skills.

During these specialized sessions, Master Vernon devotes his time and expertise to meticulously teach and refine the Black Belt Hyungs/Patterns. His commitment to excellence is evident as he personally checks and adjusts the techniques of his Black Belt students, ensuring they meet the highest standards. This rigorous attention to detail not only enhances their own skills but also empowers them to pass on the correct techniques to FTKD coloured belt students during their respective branch training sessions.
Through this dedicated approach, Master Vernon exemplifies the true spirit of Tae Kwon Do, fostering a culture of precision, discipline, and continuous improvement.
