Congratulations George, for being awarded student of the week. George has been training for 2 years and quietly building skills and progressing on his Taekwon-Do journey, over the last term, he has really stepped up and competed at Nationals and entered two other tournaments, and has now committed to 3 day a week training in term 4.

It is this type of commitment to his training, that will ensure that George's progress accelerates and he will be experiencing those winning podiums soon. Well done George, excellent effort!

TKD STUDENTS - THIS IS OUR LAST CHANCE TO GAIN VALUABLE TOURNAMENT EXPERIENCE - BEFORE THE TERM 4 STAR SERIES!

The All Arts Youth Championship is this Saturday, and registrations close in just 3 DAYS!

With our club goal of having more students engaging in tournaments next year and pushing for that top club spot at nationals next year, this is a valuable opportunity to get more tournament experience before stepping onto the bigger stage.

Competition is where you learn to manage nerves, perform under pressure, test your skills and discover what you need to work on. Real development happens when you're prepared to step outside your comfort zone.

At this years All Arts Youth Tournament, there really is something for everyone, with 5 TKD specific events — Sparring, Patterns, Flying Kicks, Power events and more.

🏆 Plus, there's a $200 CASH PRIZE for the Overall Champion!

Don't sit on the sidelines and wish you'd entered.

🔥 3 DAYS LEFT TO REGISTER. Get your entry in and get on the mats!

LAST SQUAD TRAINING OF TERM 3 – THIS SATURDAY

If you want to become a better competitor, Squad Training is where the work gets done.

At our recent Taekwon-Do tournament, all five of our top medalists consistently attend Saturday Squad. That’s not a coincidence. Extra time on the mats, higher-level training and working alongside other committed students produces results.

Next year, we want to build a strong Hwa Rang competitive team capable of achieving at the highest level – and Saturday Squad will be the cornerstone of that development.

Parents, if your child has ambitions to compete, improve faster or simply see how good they can become, these are the sessions to get them to.

Last Squad of Term 3 – this Saturday.
Come ready to work.

Celebrating success!!
Last weeks Student of the Week, is shared by the Lenny family.

All three becoming National Champions at sparring in their first Nationals tournament.
Once again this does not happen by accident, the Lenny's train at the academy 5-6 days per week, their success is by design, effort and commitment, they literally out train their opponents.

Keep setting the club standard.

Well done guys!!

Hello team, here are the club results from Nationals. We did very well overall & particularly well in sparring, but we need to create some depth in our medal tally, by working on patterns, specialty & destruction. So Saturday squad trainings are key.

Our junior classes are really growing, with some very talented students, so by next year, we should have a large number of yellow, green & blue belts eligible to compete.

It would be great if more of our youth in the senior classes competed. This is why participating in our in house youth tournaments is so important to build confidence in competing and to gain valuable experience.

As our club continues to develop, let's set ourselves a target of both taking that number 1 club spot next year and helping bolster the midlands region.

Lot's of work to be done, but let's get started TODAY!
