Thank You to the 28 members who got involved in our demonstration. with little prep time I was so proud of everyone who stepped up and just had a good time with us all.
Fantastically every board broke, and everyone performed just awesome from our Little Dragonflies John & Flynn right up to our Adults Rebecca, Jacky and of course a big thankyou to John and Ajana for all the running around.
I’m especially proud of a few of you who had to overcome nerves and pressure of performing in front of the public. Everyone really stepped up in a very short organisation period.

I’ve been flooded with great comments on my phone and we’ve been asked back again next year. great job to you all.

Taekwondo Central Instructors Promote Up A Black Belt Dan Level

 

New Black Belt Promotions. John, Justin, Ajana Vanya

 

Ajana Plunkett (4th Dan), John Crawford (3rd Dan) & Vanya Possingham (1st Dan) have all promoted up a level with Taekwondo Central welcoming Vanya Possingham to the Black Belt Club.

All gradings were conducted by a Taekwondo Ohdokwan panel of judges from around the Perth Metro area and South West. The Panel included Grand Master Ross Hartnett (8th Dan Black Belt), Grand Master Carmela Hartnett (8th Dan Black Belt) & Master Jenny Crutchett (7th Dan Blackbelt) & Myself (Justin Warren 6th Dan Black Belt)

Ajana Plunkett has been involved in Taekwondo Central for 12 years and is the first student to achieve the upper Dan level of 4th Dan Black Belt. Ajana now gains access to being on the Taekwondo Ohdokwan Grading Panel to grade from 1st Dan Black Belts to 3rd Dan Black Belts. Its a huge achievement for an 18 year old. Anybody who doubts that just has to see her skill level and it wont take long for them to agree. Ajana plays a major roll in Taekwondo Central assisting with classes and running classes for myself or her ever growing Busselton classes. I have always joked with Ajana that she is my “Polly” a reference to the BBC show Fawlty Towers. Polly is the one that runs around and sorts out everything Basil Fawlty (The manager) either misses, messes up or forgets. Ajana has been Taekwondo Centrals longest serving student and is full deserving of this level for both her ability and service to the club. Well Done Ajana.

I remember when John Crawford come to training, he never seamed that interested but he kept turning up every week. John relaxed persona tricked me, over the years he was absorbing and I could see it come through in his drive and attitude to his own training,  John has maintained a great interest in martial arts was a key figure when Taekwondo made its transition from full time academy to running from Recreation Centres in 2014. He still helps to this day, and is a major part of our teaching team, He never misses teaching or training even when the other instructors aren’t available, and never misses a chance to help the club, its truly been a pleasure to have him on board and he also deserves his new level of 3rd Dan Black Belt. Great Job John.

Vanya Possingham is one of my clubs favourite stories, I am very proud of this young man and his ability to not quit when the going gets tough. After having an unsuccessful result previously, Vanya knuckled in, trained hard, kept showing up and had that never say die attitude. Persistence certainly payed off with him passing his black belt examination. He really learned from previous mistakes, turned them around and conquered his black belt goal were we see so many who just give up a the first sign of things not going their way. Vanya now moves up the ever growing list of dedicated individuals who strive to better themselves by having purpose and a personal goal. Its a mindset that will serve Vanya well in the future at what ever goal he sets himself. Well Done Vanya, You did it! Your a 1st Poom Black Belt (Jnr Black Belt)

The next Black Belt grading will be in November/December 2016. We are looking at possibly 10 members at this examination

David Browne Earns Senior 1st Dan Black Belt In Taekwondo

David Browne earns his Black Belt in Taekwondo www.tkdcentral.com

Congratulations David Browne who has passed his Black Belt under the Taekwondo Ohdokwan Panel Grading which comprised of 2 x 8th Dan Grandmasters of Taekwondo. Balancing the responsibilities of his own Jewellers Business, a baby girl with his wife, David has managed to also put some time into his health and achieved the goal he set himself of earning his own Black belt

David is a great example of consistency to purpose, His busy lifestyle meant that he could only get to training once per week, however a black belt is achievable on once per week training just the time frame is different. In saying that, without any doubt David has stepped up to the mark and received a well earned Black Belt level.

David is part of the Adults Taekwondo at the South West Sports Centre in Bunbury. Hes is now focused on his path to 2nd Dan and we wish him all the best.

The Busselton Kids Martial Arts Scene will now include The South West’s most successful martial arts program for 3 – 8 years of age.
The Little Dragons Program run by Taekwondo Central The program currently has 120 active training children and has been running for 12 years
Why is it so popular? Because it has been proven to work when 2 of the children training in the program escaped real life kidnapping attempts on seperate occasions

Read The Mothers Testimonials Of What Happened – Click Here

Another reason they are popular is only 1 x 30 minute session is required per week so its a smaller commitment for both parents and children, but more importantly children are taught to escape situations. child based self defence all combined in a class that not only schools them on self protection but also entertains them, its a great combination to boost learning.  The class teaches what kids need to know to stay safe. To avoid abduction or keep bullies from targeting them. This is far more important and valuable to them than traditional movements, or fixed stances. A child’s greatest chance to escape a kidnapping is fluidity and movement. So we focus on the important 20% of things that is really needed..

“Do not do that which is of no use” – Musashi

The 4 most dangerous mistakes parents make when choosing a self defence school for their child under 9 years of age

 

Brady Larson Shows His Patience Badge

Little Dragons fits into the school terms and only runs during school is scheduled so it fits into the school cycle easily and into the kids weekly routine. Its a small commitment that gives great results with coordination, balance, flexibility, freedom of movement, reflexes, greater confidence, to make safer choices, personal safety and the belt process is a great way to teach children about goals and reward for effort.

Goals are the building block to being successful at anything in life, not just martial arts.
