Throughout
2014, the members of Cardiff Martial Arts will be raising money for a charity
called Touch Trust (www.touchtrust.co.uk)
This
group provides unique creative movement programmes for individuals with
learning disabilities; those affected by autistic spectrum disorder (ASD);
those with complex needs and behaviour which challenges, and
other vulnerable groups in the community.
The
first two fundraising events this year have been Zumba dance-athons, organised
by Samar Wafa, whose whole family trains with Mr McCabe in Taekwon-do.
The
first event was for children, where over £1000 was raised for
Touch Trust! The second event was for the adults, where we ‘danced through the
decades’ to all the classic
tunes that we all secretly love! Nearly £3000 was raised by
this event, with contributions from the Taekwon-do community as well as many
other dance groups in the Cardiff area.
Towards
the end of the day, Samar and Mr McCabe surprised everyone with a special
workout to Gangnam Style: youtu.be/b2-3U1do_EE
There
will be more events later in the year as we continue to support Touch Trust
with their fantastic work.
