SNUGGLE SOCKS FUNDRAISER - FOR A VERY LIMITED TIME

Hi everyone,

For a very limited time we have a Snuggle Socks fundraiser courtesy of Master Joe, who has kindly provided these from his business at a greatly reduced rate. Normally retailing at nearly $30 we are selling these at only $10 a pair.

There are limited sizes available in particular styles. These will be on display at the club on Thursday. Choose what you like. Note down your name on the order sheet. The sizes you require, which style and we will charge you for your order.

We'll keep orders open for a few weeks so you can decide, let your friends know and allow you to order for your 'I don't know what to buy them' prezzies! 😊

Thanks team and for your continued support of the club.

Taekwon! Master Raukura.

INSPIRATION FROM THE DRAGON’S DEN

“Discipline builds habits. Habits create character. Character fuels excellence. Excellence builds legacy.”
- Master Kane Raukura

People have often told me that I move like Mr Sam Clark, my instructor and the founder of Dragon’s Spirit Taekwon-Do (then Papatoetoe Taekwon-Do). They see it especially in my side kick, the same movement, the same influence, the same lessons passed on through years of training.

That is what legacy means in martial arts.

Mr Clark’s teaching lives on in me. And through me, those lessons now live on in all of you - in the way you train, the standards you hold, and the Taekwon-Do you will one day pass to others.

Techniques are taught. Character is shaped. Legacy is inherited and then passed on.

Legacy is forever
유산은 영원하다
