Hwa Rang Taekwon-Do

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!

ITKD Nationals Stories:

I just want to take a moment to celebrate the success of the Lenny family at the Taekwon-Do National Champs.

1 Family, 3 National Champions.

This doesn't happen by accident, these kids are at the academy training 5-6 days per week. Their commitment to their journey is unmatched, and that is why this beautiful family now has 3 National Champions under their roof.

I also have to point out that every champion, has incredibly supportive parents behind them, traveling around the country (last term 7 tournaments), without their support, these results would not be possible.

Thank you Manawa & Shaun, for showing such commitment to your kids development, celebrate their success, you should be very proud of them.

There is a huge amount of work that happens behind the scenes at events like this, and we greatly appreciate the time and effort put in by our coaches, our seniors who helped judge, umpire and martial at the event, ITKD as a whole for hosting these events.

Congratulations to all of our competitors, coaches, supporters and families.

We're extremely proud of what this team achieved—but we're even more excited about where we're heading.

The work continues. The standards keep rising. And this is only the beginning.
