Great and strong performance from every single on of them.

We would like to thank Master Corkery and his Team for organising an other great competition.

Master Flaherty and Mrs Galinski travelled to Belgium to take part in the ITF International Instructors Course (IIC) under the guidance of GM Nicholls endorsed by ITF President Choi Jung Hwa took place in Belgium on September 28th 2024. This event consisted of 60 black belts, ranging from 1st to 9th degree from 11 different countries from across Europe with some from further afield including Venezuela.

This course provided an exceptional opportunity for instructors to immerse themselves in advanced Taekwon-Do techniques and philosophies. Attendees explored critical components such as the training secrets—essential skills that underpin effective practice—and the theory of power, which enhances performance through applied knowledge.

Moreover, the main focus was on all 24 tuls with an in-depth questions and answers session on each. This IIC cultivated a collaborative atmosphere where practitioners exchanged insights and experiences, enriching their understanding and fostering unity among the ITF Taekwon-Do community within Europe.

With gratitude and thanks to Belgium-ITF for hosting this successful event on behalf of the ITF.

Big Congratulations to our IITF students on their recent promotion.

✨️ Mark Foley promoted to 1st Degree
✨️ Aidan Waldron promoted to 1st Degree
✨️ Arsen Hereta promoted to 1st Degree
✨️ Tara Waldron promoted to 2nd Degree

The testing was conducted by Master Flaherty, Ms Galinski and Mr. O'Sullivan. Thank you to the Junior Black Belts for helping out.

Keep up the great work! 👊🥋
