World Taekwondo Champion visits
Norwich for seminar.
The Norwich WTF Taekwondo club, who run both children’s and adults classes at Thorpe Marriott Village Hall brought over Grandmaster Kytu Dang from Denmark for a weekend in May for a historic seminar which was held at the Bob Carter Centre.
Grandmaster Dang holds the rank of 8th Dan Black belt and was The WTF (World Taekwondo Federation ) World Poomsae (Technical) champion in 2007, the first non-Korean to win a World title in that discipline.
The WTF are the World governing body for Olympic Taekwondo and hold competitions in both Poomsae (Technical) and Kyrugi (Olympic fighting) competitions.
After his win, Grandmaster Dang quickly became one of the world’s most well-known practitioners and instructors and teaches all over the world several times a month, so it was fantastic to have him visit and stay with me in Norwich explained the organiser of the event, Kevin Jervis, who himself holds the rank of 7th Dan and several national titles from his younger days, even competing against Grandmaster Dang himself a few years ago at the European Championships in Germany.
I collected him from the airport Saturday morning and within a couple of hours he was on the floor teaching some of England’s most talented practitioners in Luton before I brought him back to Norwich for an evening meal in the city where we also met up with Fronzie Charles, a world class fighter from Grenada who is hoping to gain selection for the Rio Olympics.
The following day we packed out the main Sports hall at the Bob Carter cenre for another 4 hour seminar attended by several Taekwondo groups from Norfolk and even a Hapkido group from Norwich, run by Master Trevor Rant.
This was the first time a WTF World Champion has taught in Norwich and all the groups that attended were hopeful that I would be able to organise another visit in the future explained Kevin.
It was a fantastic event and one that will be remembered for a long time by those in attendance.
Anyone interested in WTF style Olympic Taekwondo can contact the Norwich WTF Taekwondo group on 07939191771.
