16.12.2015 / National technical seminar with Grand Master Hwang Ho-yong (IX. dan) & other instructors

National seminar

Year 2015 is coming to an end and we are in the rush pre-Christmas time when everyone is trying to finish things they didn't do during whole year, when everyone is buying Christmas presents, baking Christmas biscuits, tidying their homes. In this time, Taekwondists from Czech Republic have their traditional meeting - national seminar, which was held in Brno for third time in a row.
In the past, one sports hall was enough for the seminar, in last two years we needed two halls and this time we used three. If this trend will continue, in 5 years we will need all halls available in Brno :-D

The programme was extraordinarily varied this year - the opening ceremony was led by GM Hwang Ho-Yong, who checked participating school. There were more than 130 participants which implies that not many schools were missing. Then the participants were divided into three groups (red belts, I. + II. Dan and III. Dan and higher). Every group took one hall and one-hour-long programme was prepared for every group.

The three block had these contents:
1. Hosin-sool led by Martina Zámečník (VI. dan) and Milana Prokeš (V. dan)
2. Less frequented kicks and special techniques - Rostislav Kaňka (VII. dan) a Ondřej Vrábel (VI. dan)
3. Sparring, combinations and movement - Petr Poklop (VI. dan) a Libor Macháň (V. dan)

Highest grades misses the sparring, but they had a good compensation - IV. and V. Dan pattern drill led by GM Hwang.

One-hour-long blocks were quite short and the training was over really soon and everyone had to move to another gym for next part.

At the end we practised several basic techniques under GM Hwang. It was followed by final photographing. I hope everyone can find himself on the picture.

Even though I helped with leading the second block, it was also very inspiring for me. I look forward for what will happen in 360 days at national seminar in 2016. Practise hard and for those who have not attended - try it next year. It will give you new motivation for next training of our great martial art. And if you are a beginner now and you take it more as a sport club, it doesn't mean that in year or two you can't practise on the seminar as well.
