|  | On Saturday 23rd March,
Master Trevor Nicholls VIII and Lee Hollingsworth VI held a 2 part Master Class
at the Talbot hotel. This was a well balanced
event with the first half focussing on the technical aspects of Taekwon-Do
followed by an intense sparring workshop in the afternoon. The training was
beneficial and inclusive for both junior and senior level participants. We have
to remember we have white belts as well as world class black belt competitors
taking part so a credit to Mr Hollingsworth VI for delivering a win/win outcome
within the 2 hours.
The session started with a series of vigorous
warm up activities progressing to application of offensive, defensive and
countering techniques later in the class. On a deeper level, aspects of the
theory of power were touched on. For example, punching combinations, as well as
activities testing reactions which require speed. Also, countering high section
kicks, tested balance and once again concentration was required with counters.
This dynamic workshop was jargon free, challenging and well recommended. Thank
you UK ITF Ireland for arranging this event. Written by: Chris - 30th March 2013
