24.01.2022 Happy Halloween! Tell everyone you know, there is nothing scary about joining

24.01.2022 Just traditional Taekwondo for adults - without the competitions

24.01.2022 Someone asked the question - What do you think about attending Taekwondo class just 1 day each week. This is the answer.... The problem with training once a we...ek and then training on your own for 6 days a week is that: [Day 1] Your instructor teaches you good technique and form {Days 2 - 7] You practise what you think your instructor said, but don’t get it all correct, and it's tough to train alone without an instructor's guidance, so by day 5 you decide to wait until your next lesson. [Day 8] Your instructor spends an hour trying to help you catch up to where you were at end of your first lesson. OR [Days 2 - 7] You do no practise [Day 8] Your instructor goes through the same techniques which you have not practised and have mostly forgotten. That's why training more frequently will give you a much better grounding in good technique reducing the possibility of picking up bad habits that are hard to break! If you can only attend one lesson each week it's worth investing a good training aid - a mirror! Set it up so you can see your start and finish points, stances and body angles. You don't always feel when your stance is wrong - a mirror will show you straightaway so you can self-check and correct.

23.01.2022 Happy New Year to all our Toowong members and families

13.01.2022 If you are looking to get started with beginner martial arts in particular Taekwondo for teens in Brisbane, then why not get in contact with us via messenger? ...We have a wide range of classes for both beginners and advanced students. If you are looking for a new direction or challenge in life, then come and try Pacific International Taekwondo Brisbane. Learning a new skill can be a daunting prospect so it is perfectly normal to feel a little nervous. On arrival at your class, you will be met by your instructor who will introduce you to the assistant instructors who will be taking the class. You will also get to meet the other students, some of whom may be in the same boat as you. This can be a good chance to ask them how they found their first Taekwondo class. So... what have you got to lose?

13.01.2022 Congratulations to Toowong students, Alex Wood 1st Dan and Nicholas Carter, Jnr Black Belt - belt presentations with Grandmaster

12.01.2022 Great effort Daniel and Samuel

12.01.2022 Great energy at Toowong last night - maybe the cooler weather helped.

12.01.2022 Re Taekwondo training and the COVID-19 virus. We want you to know we are taking the virus seriously and will be taking care to avoid all unnecessary contact (close partner training) during our classes. Luckily our class sizes are small so we can space students widely apart to maintain social distancing. Class training will include the practise of techniques, fitness and stretches that we rarely have time for - as well as individual patterns. Although hand sanitiser is unavai...lable we'll be having regular handwashing breaks too. So for now class training is on as usual, we will keep you up to date via this page and the newsletter too.

12.01.2022 We have helped thousands of kids to gain concentration skills, confidence and focus in their lives. With Taekwondo training, kids begin to understand the import...ance of going that extra step, which then is implemented in everyday life. Doing a little bit more homework or studying to get better grades, is just one example Call us on 3889 9551 to get started for FREE #taekwondo #brisbane #fitness #strong #confident #concentrate #focus #supportlocal #localbusiness

11.01.2022 We're starting group training in the park very soon. Possibly Wed's 4-5pm and Saturday's 9.30-10.30am - though not 100% definite yet. If you are interested please reply here and we'll get back to you ASAP.

10.01.2022 Well done to Finn and Sam - practising 3-step sparring last night.

10.01.2022 Last warmup for the year at Toowong last night

10.01.2022 A message from Grandmaster and Master Inst Margaret Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the Aust government has now banned all types of indoor training and sports acti...vities, including martial art classes. So as from yesterday, 24th March all branches of Pacific Int Taekwondo are closed. Understandably its disappointing, but at the same time a relief to know that our instructors and members will be prevented from catching or spreading the virus while attending training. This is a temporary cancellation only. Pacific International Taekwondo, and our fantastic team of instructors and assistants are not going anywhere! For now we just have to be patient and know that this time will pass. The good thing about Taekwondo is that you dont have to be in a training hall to do it and it can be practised anywhere, - with or without a partner. When its over well continue on, so while branches are closed right now, we can all continue training and improving our techniques at home. Youll be receiving an email very soon about new home training plans and other ways you can maintain and improve your Taekwondo skills. For now the important thing is to stay healthy. Maintain the recommended rules re social distancing and hand-washing etc and well all get through this unforgettable and tough time together. Grandmaster & Master Inst Margaret

10.01.2022 Grade and Go! Re the grading tomorrow and COVID-19. This is not a big grading and it's in two sections as usual so we're not expecting a large number of people... in the hall at one time, but we want to reduce the chance of spreading the virus so when you have graded please leave. There will be boxes of tissues and hand sanitiser in the hall for everyone to use. Have a good grading everyone! See more
