2012 World Tour ‘TAL’ took the performers to 11 countries to showcase their fantastic skills and artistry. Singapore was one of the stops. And the event was part of the 2012 Korea Festival organized by the Korea Embassy of Singapore.
As the event was supported by the Singapore Taekwondo Federation (STF), the Management decided to purchase tickets for regular volunteers of the organization. Those who picked up their tickets certainly did not regret doing so as they had a great time.
In appreciation of the support of the STF, HE Oh Joon presented Mr Milan Kwee, STF President, with framed posters of the event.
The show provided a different way of presenting the beauty and uniqueness of taekwondo. It highlighted extreme taekwondo performance with a storyline which was simply about the eventual victory of good over evil. If kicking, punching and breaking were not enough, the audience had a complete entertainment for the night as they were treated to Korean music and dance and mesmerized by the electrifying drum performance.
At the end of the show, the audience had plenty of photo opportunities with the stars. Sure enough, many took pictures with the performers and some took autographed planks.
The NCAP (Level 1) Technical course will be held on 24 & 25 November 2012 and 1, 2 & 9 December 2012 at the STF National Training Centre.
The primary objective of the course is to provide basic knowledge of coaching taekwondo skills. On completing the course, participants will be able to organize practice sessions which are safe and challenging for taekwondo athletes.
Additional information on the course and the registration form are attached.
The results of the ‘dan’ promotion test held on 13 October 2012 are attached.
Only those with passes for all the components – that is, basic, poomsae, sparring and self-defence or feats, theory or thesis will be considered as having granted their promotion.
Those who fail to clear all components will be required to go for a retest on Saturday 3 November 2012 at 5.00pm at the STF National Training Centre. They will be evaluated only on the component(s) they failed.
Please register for the retest with the Secretariat at 6345 1491 by Wednesday 31 October 2012.
