There is an important event coming up at Chang’s Taekwondo Martial Arts
Hello everyone! We had our monthly Chang’s Taekwondo Buddy Day this weekend and it was awesome! Make sure we bring our friends to show them how we train Taekwondo, and to have fun playing many games.There is an important event coming up at Chang’s Taekwondo Martial Arts, the Semi-Annual BlackBelt Test! Each year in May and November, we stop everything we are doing and test our Red+2 BlackBelt Testers. We check their Poomsae, we check their kicking, body defense, rolling, sparring and so much more!Not a BlackBelt Tester? Don’t worry! You can still start preparing now to make sure you are very prepared. You can start1. Pick 3 Poomsae and practice them until they are perfect!2. Practice every single kick and make sure you can easily kick a target each time!3. Start training your hand for the Board/Brick breaking at the end of the test.4. Practice your Body Defence jumping as high as you can.5. Practice your Rolling and make sure it looks smooth.6. Sign up for sparring class and start practicing!The Blackbelt test is a test of so much more than physical techniques. We also have to see you are controlling your breathing, that you have a good attitude, that you are working hard and never give up.Your Kihap is also very important on the test, if you don’t kihap loud you may fail your test! Make sure you start yelling loud now, so it is natural by the time it is your turn to take your Blackbelt Test.**For extra stars:1. Pick 3 poomsae for your test and tell your Instructor.2. Practice your kicks every day and tell your Instructor.3. Practice your poomsae every day for 5 minutes and tell your Instructor.We love to hear from you! Tell us you accomplished these tasks and you will receive your extra star.**
