Mr. Beaton will be giving a sparring seminar on Sunday morning from 10 to 12 at the Charlottetown Dojang.

While the focus will be on the competitors going to Junior Nationals, other Black Belts are invited to attend.

Due to time conflicts, we need to split the colour belt test into two parts.  Those testing for Yellow Stripe and Yellow Belt will be tested on May 9th at 11:00 am.

The other belts will be tested later in the month (currently scheduled for May 30th). This will allow us to complete the Junior National training program with the added benefit of giving the higher belts additional time to prepare.

Those not testing this time should begin working on their requirements for the next colour belt test which will be scheduled for this summer.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

UPDATE: There will be Taekwondo classes tonight as Sport PEI advises that they now have power.

The Junior National team had a great training session at JD Taekwondo in Moncton last night. We learned some new things and the guys had some great fights with some really impressive black belts of all ages. Thanks again to Master Delisle for having us there and to all of the Black Belts in attendance who were very welcoming.

We will definitely be going over again so let me know who is interested. The next trip will be open to anyone who wants to come over.

PEI Taekwondo along with Beaton’s Taekwondo is pleased to announce that the 3rd Annual PEI Summer Open will be held on July 4th at Birchwood Jr. High School in Charlottetown.
