Blood, Sweat and Cheers Your guide to sport in Glasshouse Country
Taekwondo Kicks off in Beerwah The Beerwah Primary School hall is now the home for the newest class of San Taekwondo. Fifteen fresh and enthusiastic locals made up the group who took part in the first ever class. Instructor and second dan black belt Cameron Taylor, who recently returned from training in Korea, will be keeping the group busy and teaching the skills of this traditional martial art. “It was really exciting to see so many new students at our first class, I’m sure that the club will continue to grow,” said Cameron. “I hope the whole family will come along and give it a try with a two week free trial and half price training for September and October.” San Taekwondo has been running classes on the Sunshine Coast hinterland for more than eight years and has a well-established class in Maleny. “When I was six-years-old I started taekwondo because I wanted to become a Power Ranger. Since then it has helped me in all aspects of my life and has given me many opportunities, including recently travelling overseas. “While training in Korea, the Masters’ encouraged me to begin teaching and I’m looking forward to telling them about the success of the Beerwah class,” he said. The classes in the primary school hall will get you moving and are great for fitness as well as teaching a simple and effective system of self defence. The club supports family involvement and reinforces respect, safety and responsible attitudes within the community while developing self confidence.
