Perth Soo Bahk Do

🔥🥋GOOD LUCK TO ALL OUR CANDIDATES! 🥋🔥

To every student stepping up for grading this weekend — your dedication on the floor has led to this moment. Trust your training, breathe, and show us the discipline and heart you bring to the dojang every class.

We're proud of each and every one of you, no matter the outcome. Go show us what you've got! 💪

👊🏼WITH PREPARATION THERE IS NO FEAR👊🏼
Our instructors offering up their early Sunday morning to develop and improve their instructor skills. Today we’re working on how we can integrate our Moo Do philosophies into our class and giving the instructors tools how to do this. So proud and humbled by these keen instructors to share the art with the students.

I’m looking forward to the next few weeks where they are going to put this in practice.

Soo Bahk!

💪🏻 PUSH FOR BETTER 💪🏻
As we did previous years we are participating in the annual push up challenge to create awareness for mental health. As martial arts is a great way to give your mental health a boost we are all for this. Currently we are half way through the challenge and there is unity in shared “suffering” 😂. Arms feeling a bit tight, but for a good cause. Thanks everyone for your participation in this. Let’s Push for better.

Make sure to share the line with these amazing practitioners from Australia.

📅 IMPORTANT DATES AHEAD 📅
A few key dates coming up that you need to know about:

This Saturday - Belt ceremony for Paul French. We'll be celebrating his achievement and progress. Great work, Paul.

Next Thursday - Special class at Kardinya Dojang. We'll be connecting with interstate visitors, so bring your energy and make them feel welcome on our floor.

Saturday 30 May & Monday 1 June - No classes at Kardinya Dojang due to the Australian National Camp (ANC).
Mark these down. We'll see you there.

How honoured are we of such strong female leadership!

🌍 WHAT A WEEK IN SPAIN 🌍
The Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa week in Spain - that's the kind of experience that reminds you why we do this.
Connecting with practitioners from around the world, sharing knowledge, pushing each other to grow - this is what keeps our art vibrant and alive. The training was intense, the learning was deep, and the connections we made will carry forward.
A huge congratulations to Alan Scott SBN on his testing. Watching him step up and give everything he had - that's what commitment looks like. Amazing job.
This week was about more than just technique. It was about our global community coming together, supporting each other, and strengthening the lineage we're all privileged to be part of.
Grateful for every moment of it.

🌏 CONNECTING ACROSS THE WORLD 🌏
Today we're reconnecting with our international friends as the Spanish Ko Dan Ja Shim Sa begins.

There's something special about these moments - practitioners from different corners of the world coming together, sharing the same art, the same values, the same commitment to growth. The conversations, the training, the learning that happens when we connect like this - it reminds me why our lineage matters.
We'll be learning much and training hard alongside our global community. This is what keeps our art alive and growing.

Always a pleasure to see everyone again. Let's make the most of this opportunity.

👥 KEEPING OUR STUDENTS SAFE 👥
Last session our instructors came together to focus on something that underpins everything we do - safety.
When students walk onto our floor, they trust us. They trust that we'll push them to grow while keeping them protected. That we'll create challenges that build them up, not break them down. That responsibility is something we take seriously.
Our instructors trained on how to ensure every student - from our newest white belt to our most senior Yu Dan Ja / Ko Dan Ja - can train with confidence, knowing they're in good hands.
This is the foundation that lets growth happen. This is what makes our dojang a place where people can push their limits safely.
We've got you. Always.
