GRADING!!!

committee — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 12:18:41 +0000

Hello TKD ninjas!

Here it comes……. ‘THE FINAL GRADING’!!!!!!!
This is the last grading of this year. Let’s end our TKD journey with upgraded colours of TaeKwonDo, shall we?

—————————————————–
You must know what is expected to grade to a higher level by now, so this can be just a reminder!

***Wearing DOBOK is compulsory to grade!!!

What is accessed (for all levels):

1. TKD BASIC TECHNIQUE
2. KICKING TECHNIQUE
3. PATTERNS *
4. SPARRING
5. SHOUTING!!!!!!
6. ATTITUDE
7. BREAKING TECHNIQUE
8. SELF DEFENCE

*Patters for different belts :

Yellow = Pattern 1 to 3
Blue = Pattern 1 to 5
Red/Black (1st Dan) = Pattern 1 to 8

(Please try not to procrastinate to learn the patterns ON THE DAY since it takes time to learn them! Remember, grading is a chance for you to demonstrate how much efforts you have put in TaeKwonDo and only yourself will know whether you are ready to go to the next level. So take your time to keep practising them!)

If you are a Cho Dan Bo (black tip, red belt) or black belt and is willing to grade, please notify me in advance!
—————————————————–

After the grading, we will have a SPECIAL EVENT for you. The outcome of this event will stay with the club forever even if you leave the club. So even if you are not grading, DO NOT HESITATE to come and join this awesome event! It will be at Dojo Room after the grading!

—————————————————–

SOCIAL DINNER!!!!

Are you craving for Thai food? (I AM….. it’s been forever since we went there last time! haha)
We will have a social dinner after the grading in Thai Long 1 in NewTown. Again, even if you are not grading, come along! Escape from the overloaded assignments for a short while…

—————————————————–

The Annual General Meeting of SUTC 2011 is approaching soon. There will be heaps of experience members with the club and the committee on the grading day. Come and ask questions if you are interested in running for the committee next year!!

See you all on Sunday and train HARD!

Hello TKD lovers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (high five!)

committee — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 21:47:14 +0000

The first semester has been successfully ended thanks to you all who enjoyed the trainings and made most out of all the social activities!
Our club has grown with more members and with more energy and it is amazing to see how the old and new members can harmonise so well together!!
Always remember it is every single one of you that is playing a crucial role in writing the legend of Sydney Uni TaeKwonDo Club (SUTC). And all of us together are the sexiest club in the world!!

Here is what is happening with the club :

1. Holiday Trainings

The holiday trainings are ongoing until 20th of July. The trainings are at the regular times (3 – 4.15pm and 4.15 – 5.30pm) in the regular place (Dojo Room in H.K.Ward). The classes are going to be focusing on competition preparation since States is coming up very soon. But everyone is welcome to join the classes even if you are not interested in competing! The holiday trainings are conducted by our awesome coaches, Johnnie and Arthur, voluntarily – thus, the classes will be FREE. Also, Alex, an experienced senior black belt, will share his experience in sparring on Friday classes. Nevertheless, you will have to purchase a monthly pass first and then we will refund you by the beginning of the second semester. Please keep your receipts and present to the committee for refunding.

- Extra Trainings with Master Hong -
Master Hong is offering his classes to the members of SUTC which are on:
Wednesday : 6.45pm – 8.30pm in Ryde Public School
Saturday : 10 am – 12 pm in St Mark’s Catholic College, Perfection Ave, Stanhope Gardens

2. TKD Camp!

TKD Camp IS COMING!!!!! Only once in your lifetime!!!!! (…..until next year) You don’t want to miss out on this!
The deadline for the camp deposits closes 30th of June. Please let us know if you need extra time for special consideration. Obtaining the right number of attendees is really important for the committee to make the best programme possible! The camp will combine both trainings and a lot of FUN! If you are still a ‘MAYBE’, MAKE YOUR DECISION NOW!!!!!

More information will be found on FB :

https://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=186196568096687

3. ‘TORNADO TEAM’

SUTC is creating a special team for the Australian Uni Games (AUGs)! We will fly to Gold Coast in the last week of September and sweep away all the opponents like a TORNADO. And guess what……. WE WILL BE THE SCARIEST AND SEXIEST TORNADO EVER!!!!!!!

The whole purpose of forming the Tornado team is to plan and train together for our AUGs trip. So if any of you guys are interested, please let the committee members know! Yellow belts and above are eligible to compete in AUGs. If you have even a little doubt in yourself in competing, there are only two things that I would like to say. Firstly, things start becoming impossible only if you believe so. I believe you all have a fire in your heart that can burn so bright – as long as you try! Plus, the whole purpose of competing is to have FUNNN and to make memories that will last for your lifetime!!! We will make the most out of what we can when the time is right.

We, the committee, will try our best to support the players in AUGs!

Please show your interest! More detailed updates will reach you soon!

4. August States (6th and 7th of August)

August States is approaching soon! Again, yellow belts and above can fight! We will prepare for the States during the holiday, so please come to the trainings if you can, as it will help you greatly! Please inform the committee of your interest! YOU ALL CAN DO IT!! Especially if you are thinking of joining the Tornado team, as it will be good experience before we enter AUGs. There are some steps that you have to follow in order to compete in States :

a. Be a member of Taekwondo Australia
The application form for the membership of Taekwnodo Australia is attached with the email
Please fill up the form and hand it to me or our secretary, Amar, with $55 of the registration by the end of July!

b. Register online
After you are confirmed to compete, we will go over the registration online together.

That’s all for now!!!!!!!!

Hope you are all enjoying the holidays! We will see you in second semester if you can’t make it to the holiday trainings!! Miss you all!!!

U S Y D TAEKWONDO!!!!!!!!!!!!

All Belts who wish to grade please learn your patterns properly, for colour belts please memorise the current pattern and the previous patter. I will teach you “one-step-sparring” and “self defence” on Monday.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ciREKkCr_U – one step sparring (Don’t panic, white belt level is easier)

See you all on Monday at 3pm for training.

Jason Liem

PS: Please do not hesitate to ask us for help anytime you see us

For the Poomse, here’s a site I found quite helpful

http://www.tkdnsw.org.au/pattern.asp

Also we will be having a Club Photo taken after the grading. Uniforms are a must, we gotta look smart and spiffy after all. Again, I’ll tell you guys when the Mooto uniforms are back in. If you don’t have one you can borrow one off Jason for the photo.

Good luck with your pattern memorisation and I’ll see you all on Monday.

TKD announcement 20/4/10

committee — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 11:24:13 +0000

Hey guys

Ok, just a reminder. If you own a Mooto uniform, get the top half to Jason before this Friday. The printing on the back is coming off and we’re going to get it redone. Bring it in clean. No passing it over as soon as you’re done wearing it in training alright? Please ensure that your name is somewhere on the uniform as well.

Also, as you may have heard we are changing the location of our Wednesday late class. It will no longer be held at the Aquatic Centre. Instead it will be held in the basketball courts of HK Ward. Class times are now from 3 – 4.30 pm in the Dojo Room and then from 4.30 – 6 pm at the Basketball courts. We apologise for the inconvenience this might cause.

See you all at training

More TKD news 31/3/10

committee — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 21:52:56 +0000

Hey guys

Alright, first things first. The BBQ. It was rained out today, but we’re gonna try again on Thursday. Same time same place. Please attend if you can. I know I will.

Raffle tickets. Buy em! Seriously. It’s for a good cause. Namely… Us. The club. We can’t be as awesome as we are now if we’re out of pocket. So get buying guys. Talk to any of the committee members, we’re the ones selling them. Prizes include a stay in a Bali resort, fancy Mooto backpacks, and some sparring gear. And no, you’re not seeing things. Jason has managed to get the winner a stay in a resort. No plane fare, but yeah. I doubt any other uni raffle can boast the same.

Training over the break. It’s off for this Friday and next Monday. I repeat, Good Friday and Easter Monday are a no go. Training is still on the Wednesday and Friday from April the 7th onwards though and is to be held only at HK ward. So no basketball courts next wednesday.

Mooto shoes and the arm and shin guards are in stock now. The arm and shin guards may not all be white. Some of them may be black. Just a heads up.

Uniforms are not ready yet. They are currently in the process of being printed on. I’ll inform you when they’re ready.

As always, for those of you who have them, bring your arm guards and shin guards to training tomorrow.

See you at training
