Well done to the people representing four different LCTKD clubs who came over to Broom in Warwickshire to attend a course day as part of the Assistant Instructor training. A huge thank you as always to Mrs Helen M.F. Hall, our Director of Education and Training and her fabulous IAIMA teaching team representing six different LCTKD clubs for a wonderful, insightful and great fun day for all involved.

Sometimes a seagull just sits on your head. You want life to be calm. You want to be quiet. But there it is, screeching for all it is worth. What we want to do with our classes is give you somewhere that frees you from the screeching, even if just for an hour. https://lctkd.com/arts.html

Left over Right. This starting point for the traditional bow used in our Tai Chi and Ensodo is also featured as a starting point for some TaeKwonDo patterns, where it is sometimes said to indicate praying hands. In Tai Chi, it is sometimes said to indicate what people refer to as the Tai Chi symbol of flowing Yin and Yang, but traditionally it indicates a containment of power and potential aggression. The more powerful right hand is closed by a the gentler left. Bowing this way makes it harder to suddenly swing a punch, while philosophically it indicates a calm disposition.

Good luck to the three TKD Instructors grading for 3rd Dan in London later this month. In all of our graded arts, 3rd Dan is the third Black Belt level and only available to qualified Instructors, making getting to it even more of an achievement, open only to a select few.

Hello you happy Badsey Tai Chi folk, please make a note that you can't get in to the hall on 19th November, but Michelle is organising a session outdoors (if the weather allows) or on Zoom (if the weather isn't so good). 😀

Understand this. It's not about how big you are, it's about what you know. Of course, if you are not as big and strong as someone grabbing you, you do start at a disadvantage, let's not make magic out of this. Let's just understand that someone with the right training, like the young man featured here from TKD in the Cotswolds, can reduce that disadvantage. And this is not a slow motion, no resistance, photoshoot. At his level, in our school, this young man is required to, and able to, deal with repeated attacks at speed. https://lctkd.com/blockley.html

A month since the Bredon Hill Cup? Wow, time flies.... One of the trophies from the Bredon Hill Cup was The Jonathan Hamilton-Jones Trophy. It was presented for the first time at the Bredon Hill Cup 2026, in memory of our great friend and supporter, who died earlier this year. The Trophy is for an LCTKD student who has gone "above and beyond" and has a special resilience. Its first recipient was Jillian Sidaway from Artrix Tai Chi in Bromsgrove. Jillian is an ever-cheerful great grandmother, who has been a constant support and inspiration to others despite herself having to overcome great difficulty to be able to continue with her Tai Chi. The Trophy, which features a Welsh Dragon, was presented to Jillian by her teacher, Senior Instructor Michelle Baker.
