Melbourne Taekwondo Centre - Bayside

🥋 PREP WEEK AT MTC BAYSIDE 🥋

It’s a big week at MTC Bayside — and a great reminder of just how many opportunities there are at MTC. 💪

This week our students are preparing for grading, while behind the scenes our coaches and athletes are heading in different directions to continue learning, competing and representing MTC.

🇨🇳 Harry & Riley are travelling to China
🇦🇺 Bernie & our Development Squad are heading to Tasmania this weekend

From grading and development to competition and international opportunities, there’s always something happening at MTC.

Different pathways. One team. Endless opportunities. 🥋🔥

Congratulations to MTC Bayside’s newest 5th Dan Kukkiwon Black Belts! 🥋👏

A huge congratulations to Peggy Bampton, Rob Brown and David Louey on this incredible achievement.

Their 5th Dan represents far more than rank — it marks a lifetime of dedication, contribution and commitment to Melbourne Taekwondo Centre.

We are incredibly proud of everything they have contributed to our club, our students and the wider Taekwondo community.

Congratulations Peggy, Rob & David! 🥋🏆

5th Dan — a lifetime of Taekwondo.

🥋 Practice Grading Week! 🥋

This week is all about assessing our readiness for grading.

Students will be put through the skills and requirements they’ll need for their upcoming grading, giving instructors the opportunity to see what they’re confident with and where they may need a little more work. 💪

It’s also a chance for students to experience some of the pressure of grading in a supportive environment and build confidence in what they’ve learned.

🏅 And this week, we’ll also be presenting the medals from Competition Week, celebrating everyone who stepped up, challenged themselves and gave their best!

Let’s see how everyone is progressing! 🥋💪🏆

🏅 Competition Week is here! 🥋

This week our students will be stepping onto the mats to compete for a medal during class! But the biggest goal isn’t just winning—it’s learning to manage nerves, give your best effort, and have the courage to have a go.

Good luck, everyone! 💪🔥

MartialArts Confidence Courage

This week at MTC Bayside we’re taking on one of everyone’s favourite activities—board breaking! 💥

Board breaking isn’t just about strength; it’s about resilience. It’s about backing yourself, pushing through nerves, and having the courage to try, even when something feels difficult.

Every board broken is a reminder that with persistence, confidence and the right mindset, we can overcome challenges both on and off the mats.

We can’t wait to see everyone give it their best this week! 🥋👊

Throwback Thursday 🤣🥋

Back when Bernie and Harry were the ones getting kicked instead of coaching from the sidelines. 😂
