95% PASS!

I do not mind telling you I was more than relieved when I passed my WT Coach Online Kyorugi Certification Course.

Had to be done in 30mins so missed one question on seeding of players for the Olympics. :-(

This allows me to once again coach at G1, G2 kyorugi events.

"What's the gameplan?"

Before competitions I would have trained specific moves and strategies for weeks and months in preparation

At the start of a fight applying these moves and strategies would usually go well

But as a fight or competition went on throughout the day tiredness, pressure or distraction would result in me moving away from the original plan

"What you know, and what you do are two different things"

My coach always played the part of keeping me on track and on plan to get the best outcome and performance

Alot of people nowadays are aware that:

✅Calorie tracking helps with fatloss

✅Weight training helps you get stronger and builds muscle

✅Improving your daily habits will help you feel better and live longer

Yet will struggle in applying these consistantly enough to create lasting change

Myself included.

Let me know what's going well for you or where you think you need improvement thinking about 2025? 📩

BRITISH KYORUGI NATIONAL'S 2024 BRONZE! 🥉

Well done to Vesta who competed at the weekend in the tough advanced category of the British Kyorugi National Championships held this year in Sheffield.

Wasn't the colour she came for but every fight at this level is a tough fight! :-)

It was great to be back at the British Nationals after a few year's absence. More players next year!
