Welcome back! We hope you all had a great christmas and that the exam season was not too painful. Training Begins back up again on Wednesday 26th January, and we hope to see many of you there. In addition, we have a lake district trip, being organised, so any questions, just ask one of the comitee and we'll help you out. Oh, and have a great new year!
The edge has informed us that due to severe weather, it will be closed today, so the grading will not be on. This will be postponed until Friday, assuming that the edge sports center will be open then. Sorry for the inconvenience, but we will accomodate everyone who should be grading when we can.
Just a reminder, there is a grading on Wednesday 1st December! Make sure you arrive early! You may well be penalised if you are late to your own grading! Make sure you have read through the syllabus, know your pattern, etc. If you have reieved your license already please make sure to bring that with you.
And above all else, good luck.
Competition
I would like to say a very well done to all those who competed in the competition last Sunday in Hereford. Congratualtions to Reuven, Marcus, Gina, Chris and Simon who won medals at their events. The LUUTKD team came back with 2 Golds, 2 Silvers and 3 Bronze! Also a big thank you to Mr Murray for driving everyone up to Hereford in the early morning.
Meal
Please Message laura personally so she can secure you a place for the christmas meal. A facebook event "yes" is not enough. For more information on the meal, check out the event: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=132066930182754
Seminar
The seminar with Grand Master Liversidge on the 8th December is getting closer, and we will be collecting money for this event this week again. This is a great oppertunity to be taught under a 9th Dan black belt! The cost is £30, a small price to pay for the level of expertise we will be getting!
Hoodies
Those who have ordered your hoodies and have not yet colected them, please pick them up and pay for them in the next 2 weeks.
The Saturday training session this week has been cancelled due to a volleyball tournament. This means that there will be no training on Saturday 13th November 10:30-12:30. The same day is our social at Strawbs and then on to Halo. The theme is superheroes/ martial arts heroes. Check the facbook event for more details: http://www.facebook.com/#!/event.php?eid=170107076338480hd There is a big competition on the 28th November in Hereford. The cost is £15 and you can enter as many catagories as you want: ellow & Green - Patterns, point-stop sparring Blue, Red, Black - Patterns, point-stop sparring, continuous sparring, hand and foot destruction. As the weigh in is from 0930 on the Sunday and it takes a few hours to get to Hereford, we will be travelling down the night before and staying saturday night. We have 2 cars that are going down at the moment, If you would like to offer your car and driving services for the trip please let one of the committee know. We will be sharing petrol costs for the journey. The latest we need the forms in by is the Friday, but we'd prefer it if those itnerested could get it done by the wednesday. Jeremy and Rachel will be bringing forms to the sessions so if you are interested you can sign yourself up at the training sessions this week.
The Give it a Go is happening on Wednesday 13th, so anybody who is interested in trying out, this is a great time. You'll receieve a demonstration, be taught some basic beginners moves, and best of all, it's free. The is all Happening dueing the normal Wednesday session times as described on the right.
Welcomne to Luutkd if you are new, or welcome back if you are returning, we all hope you had a great summer. Training starts back up on Wednesday the 29th September at the slightly different time of 18:30 till 20:30.
The New Times are displayed on the right, but they are:
Wednesday 18.30-20.30
Friday 17.30-19.30

We hope to see you there!
Due to the lack of training on Saturday 1st May, a trip to Scarborough has been organised instead. The cost for this trip is £15 and is payable on the union website, like paying for membership (instructions on that shown above), except is listed under "Products" instead of "Join". The trip will last all day, and transportation is being arranged.
Welcome back, and we hope you all had a good Easter break. Training starts back up on Wednesday 21st April, the first Wednesday back, with usual time and place.
However thee will be a few cancelled lessons in the next few weeks. They are:
Saturday 24th April (no instructors available)
Friday 30th April (Sports hall is booked out)
Saturday 1st May (Sports hall is booked out)
The last lesson of the semester is here, and will be held on Friday the 19th (of March). With that said, we hope you all have a great break, and that we will see you all next semester.
It's that time of year again, and as you have been informed, the AGM is on Wednesday 17th March in Sports Hall 2 from 7:30pm (the last half hour of training for that session). If you are a member of the society, please come and vote for the people you want to represent you next year, as we need at the very minimum 20 people for the AGM to happen. No experience is required for the positions themselves, and if you are willing to put some time in to it you will learn some useful and important skills, that will help you out in the "real world" (i.e. CV). For doing this, commitee members also get free lessons, which is pretty good. Members can run for any position, but only once. Thanks, and hope to see you there on Wednesday.
Greetings, hope you've all been enjoying getting back to training. We have a lot of things planned for you all in the coming weeks.
Wed 17th of February:
We have a Give-It-A-Go session in Sports Hall 2 from 7 till 8, so anybody who wants to try it out, this is a great opportunity, and remember, its free. edit: this begins at 6pm, and finishes at 8pm.
Sat 27th February:
There is a grading for those who missed the last grading (in November) or will miss the next one (in March) and the venue will be Sports Hall 2 at 2:30pm.

That's all for now.
Happy new year! We hope you have all had a fantastic holiday and that the exam session treated you kindly. Our first session back will be held on Wednesday 27th of January in the usual time/place and lessons will continue from that point on as normal (i.e. detailed on the left). Welcome back and enjoy.
It's the end of the year and the end of TKD training for this semester as of Friday the 11th, we hope that you have all had a good year, and have enjoyed training with us so far. So, we hope everybody has a great Christmas Holiday, and that we'll see you next year (decade).
Unfortunatly, this saturday's training session (saturday the 21st November) has been cancelled due to the university needing the sports hall. Fortunatly for us, a social has been organised in its place. This social is a trip to the cinema to see "The men who stare at goats" and we will be seeing it at the The Vue cinema in The Light Complex. We will be meeting there at 3pm for 3:30 showing, hope you can make it.
The Taekwondo seminar detailed previously was (through fault entirely my own) wrongly billed as being in Bradford Sports Centre. This is a lie, and it is in fact going to be held in Aireborough Leisure Centre. This is the Facebook Page which has full information and the original post can be found below (with the right venue). Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Greetings to all. As of Friday the 30th of October the beginners and seniors classes will be merged in to one 2 hour class, so for all the beginners, training now starts an hour earlier (the times are listed to the left). And in other news, the first big social of the year (hurrah!) will be held on Saturday 7th of November, starting at 5pm in Woody's. The theme of the social is "Drink your name", so wear a (cheap) white t-shirt with your name written on it, and for every letter of your name, drink something that begins with that letter, and then write down on the t-shirt what you drank. It promises to be a great time, so don't miss out. See you there...
There is A TKD seminar on Sunday 22nd November covering a range of topics in TKD, one of the Masters being our very own Mr Murray. This will be in Aireborough Leisure Centre and is £8 a ticket. For more information, check out the Facebook Page
