📝Learning from the best ✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Fresh off from bagging another European Gold, we have had the privilege to attend a world class seminar by none other than Eva Sandersen. After experiencing the training a Poomsae Champion goes through, the young participants came out re-energised and inspired. This seminar has come at a great time where the new recruits are preparing for their first Poomsae competition and the returners are building their confidence in their performance for the same competition. A few of the older members are preparing for the upcoming London Open.

✨Ali’s Dojang Open 2025✨
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
A recap and reflection of the first in-person competition of our young competitors from Narae Cubs:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After experiencing and gaining confidence from the online competition format, our young competitors were enthused in entering their first in-person competition as a group. This helped create camaraderie as they put in the hours to tweak their techniques, improve their understanding of poomsae scoring and synchronisation for those who are competing in teams.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was a new experience for many going into uncharted territory. Volunteering members from gave coaching support on the day along with thoughtful goodie bags including words of encouragement for our young competitors.
