Session hosted by Mr Hay in the Taunton Area 25/10/08
Hi, I’m just talking in advance about the applied session to be held in October near Taunton.
Previous Applied sessions have been well supported by Mr Hay’s students travelling all the way up to Bristol, I felt it fair that I would put a session on for them down there! I do hope my own students will honour us with their support. You don’t fall off the edge of the world when you go past Bristol Airport!!
Obviously as we’re on Mr Hay’s patch there will be students who have not done one of my applied sessions before so it will be a bit of a ‘back to basics’ session. If however I have enough people that have been attending the applied sessions all the way through, I will cater for their more advanced experience where I can.
We will just start at the beginning, Chon-Ji, and take applications for the techniques and drill their applications. Then we’ll move up through other patterns. If there are any specific techniques that you would like to see covered on the day, please e-mail me in advance and I will do my best to cover them in the session.
Further sessions will follow back up in Bristol - dates yet to be confirmed, watch this space!

Thanks Mark, I’m glad you enjoyed it. It has always been my intention to develop the patterns into a valid self defence supplement to our standard TaeKwon-Do training. For me this is good because it gives the patterns a depth and meaning beyond just being an exercise to get the next belt or as a form of TaeKwon-Do aerobics.
As ever, in this session I felt I ran out of time - we barely got beyond Chon-Ji! 23 more patterns to go….
This reminds me, I must arrange the next Applied Session in my Bristol clubs - watch this space, see you all there.
