This is TaekwonDO

Choi Dae Ho, a member of the World Taekwondo Federation Peace Corp, did his parents, his taekwondo organizations and all of us in taekwondo proud when he stoop in front of an old lady and gave her his slippers.

Dae Ho demonstrated the true spirit of taekwondo on his way back after a trip to Sentosa during his break from teaching the Singapore National Squad. He saw the old lady without slippers. Spontaneously, he removed his slippers and offered them to her. As if that was not enough, he went down and wore the slippers for her.

This photo of barefooted Dae Ho was taken by another WTPC member, Miss Kim Jeong Hee, without his knowledge.

It was a gesture which came naturally for him. His taekwondo training in humility and helpfulness certainly had contributed to it!When he got off the bus, he found the pathway too hot for his bare feet.  He had to run all the way back to his hostel.  Nevertheless, he was delighted that he had done a good deed.

Dae Ho, the taekwondo fraternity in Singapore is proud of you!

A recent study reveals that, despite doing well in their poomsae, quite a number of candidates did not make the grade. The reason – they fail their sparring. It is because most of them do not know what the examiners are looking for.

To help candidates pass their grading on their first try, the Singapore Taekwondo Federation is introducing a new sparring course similar in structure to the unarmed combat course.

The sparring course will have three levels – Fundamental, Level 1 and Level 2.

Candidates going for their 1st dan will be exempted from sparring if they have the fundamental certification. Those with Levels 1 and 2 will be exempted from sparring when they go for their 2nd and 3rd dan respectively.

The first fundamental sparring course will be held as follows.

Date                   :    Sunday 17 February 2013

Time                   :    2.30pm to 5.30pm 5.30pm onwards(Test)

Venue                 :    Block 80 Lorong Limau #04-191 Singapore 320080

Fees                   :    On or before Thursday 14 February 2013 – $50.00

                                On the spot registration – $70.00

Dress Code          :   ‘Dobok’

If you have attended any Sparring Workshop organized by the STF, you may register directly for the Sparring Course (Level 1) which is scheduled to be held in March 2013.
