Naas Taekwon-Do Club

Some stills from the action this weekend gone at the ITA Dublin Open 2026.

Congratulations and well done to everyone who competed at the recently concluded Dublin Open. I am really proud of your performances, the spirit and the growth. It is not an easy feat to step on the mat and challenge yourself at the highest levels, but you summoned the courage and did it.

Everyone did their best and gained even more experience. As we reach the middle of the first half of the year, we will continue to build on what we have and even do better next time.

Thanks to all the teammates who help them prepare, thanks to all the parents for their endless sacrifices, and thanks to the club competitors.

Enjoy your Easter break.

Once again, Leon pulled off a Silver in patterns at the ITA Dublin Open yesterday. The competition saw over 1300 competitors. Congratulations to you Leon. Job well done.

We are absolutely excited for this year’s Crystal Classic! 💎🔥
This year, we’re proud to feature World Champion James Tuite on our event poster — a small way of showing our huge appreciation for someone who continually gives back to our club.
James regularly visits, supports, and inspires our students, always pushing them to achieve their very best. His dedication, humility, and championship mindset make a lasting impact on everyone he works with.
Thank you, James, for being such a valued part of our journey — we’re honoured to have you representing this year’s Crystal Classic!
Let’s make this year the best one yet! 💪🥋
Thanks to Graphic Image for the poster design.
