Paek Ma Taekwondo

Our students smashed it today in pattern and sparring competitions.
Talent was displayed in its best form and medals were won.
Fighters worked hard to make their kicks count and trophies were won.
What a day! Well done to ALL contestants - you’ve done yourselves proud.

Master Geoff is proud to announce that Harrie has been promoted to 3rd Dan Black Belt, Caroline has been promoted to Technical Master 4th Dan Black Belt and Master Petra has been promoted to International Master 5th Dan Black Belt.
Congratulations to all! We worked very hard for it not just on the day, but also in the years leading up to these Gradings. Well deserved and, according to Master Geoff, delivered a high standard of grading.

Well, today Park Ma launched it's first Dan grading (Black Belt grading). Long journeys up and down the country to the North and back have come to an end (but gladly, dinners at the Beefeater still take place ☺️). I miss you all lots at Barnard Castle, Darlington and at the same time I'm proud how Master Geoff conducted his own Dan grading today. Biased, I know, but never the less a very good grading.
Well done to all the students who passed their grading today! You made us proud!

Good grading last Sunday 18th October 2015!
Well done to everybody for passing their next grades!
And if it wasn't your turn this time don't loose heart, but stay true to one of the taekwondo tenets and persevere. ;-)

TO ALL BLACK BELTS
Master Geoff is calling a meeting on Tuesday 3rd September at 8.00pm
Be there to learn about changes in the clubs and to be part of making decisions regarding your clubs.
This meeting is for Black Belts only and there is no other senior training that evening. Junior classes run as usual.

Great first one of four taekwondo demos at Eaststour Primary School today! Thanks for everyone for taking part and well done to Caroline for taking the floor!
We were a little disorganised to start with, but got better throughout and I think we left with a great finish. Thanks for the roses, Tracy!

Finally recovering from a really bad day-after-christmas-party. What a great night though! Thanks to everyone for coming along and making it an unforgettable night! ;-))
