Pushing the Boundaries @ MSJ Sports & Fitness Centre: Added 23/06/10

MSJ Sports & Fitness centre Manager Mike Bourne, played host to the 4th National Tae Kwon-Do Seminar and Black Belt Grading with Master Willie Lim 8th Dan. In partnership with Malvern Tae Kwon-Do Academy and Chief instructor Master Kevin Summers 6th Dan who is the resident Tae Kwon-Do Instructor at the centre. The seminar started with all students assembled in the sports hall receiving an introduction to Master Lim’s unique concept of Tae Kwon-Do pattern’s applications.

The day started with a number of basic pattern applications which were not only innovative but truly challenging to even the most experienced of instructors attending the seminar. The second half of the seminar was based on self defence application, this was the highlight of the day. Master Lim’s demonstrations were amazing and left students and instructors with a real sense of the reality of the art. Master Lim is a true master and a gentleman.

The second day was the National black belt grading, students arrived from all over the country including Ireland for this bi-annual event. Once again MSJ and Malvern Tae Kwon-Do Academy were honoured to host Master Lim as Chief Instructor and President of Independent Martial Arts. The standard was very high and the quality under the guidance of Master Lim was self evident. The day closed with a few words of wisdom from Master Lim and a standing ovation from all present.

Malvern Tae Kwon-Do Academy trains out of MSJ Sports and fitness Centre 4 days a week. The centre is a state of the art building having its own fitness suite and a number of other sporting activities available to the public.
